Morning Boys!! A little chillier for the weekend with the temps staying under the freezing mark, but its still nice out!!

Thats a very cool lift. I like the fact that you can move it to the side when done. Wonder if they make smaller ones for passenger vehicles like that? I would have reservations about working under a 20 ton vehicle on a jack. I think I'd want a pit for that.

I'm surprised your root canal hurt after the freezing Grant. What tooth was it?

Hope everyone has a great day in store. Momma is taking the kids to a kids expo today, with nearly all day to myself I'm not entirely sure what I want to do...

It was an upper molar. It was infected. Feels OK now. I have to go back in 2 weeks to get it finished (capped?). I've only had one cavity in my life, and that was the tooth. See what happens when you stop gargling with Vodka.

I'm going to clean up the throttle body and spacer. get them painted, and install my EGR delete plate. I also have to get Jordan's car finished. I'm getting tired of driving him to work on weekends. It's my birthday tomorrow, so I'm going to sleep in. Jordan can use my truck. I'm taking spring break off. If the weather is good, I hope to get the 56 back in the garage. Mount my remote brake res. and get the brakes bled, before I install the engine/trans. How about you?

Happy birthday for tomorrow Grant. My dad's birthday on Monday!

I'm waiting on that oil pan so I can get the motor and transmission mounts installed. I should get working on the panel and get the few things that need attending to before the roads are ready to travel. I need to re-route the wires from the transmission to the speedo because I'm getting interference that's making the speedo jump when at idle. I started it up last week and let it warm up for about 20 minutes and noticed there was an extra 34 kms on the odometer. Not the way I want to rack up the miles I think that might be the reason my cruise control keeps kicking out too.

Do they stick some times, my speedometer works fine and was calibrated using the GPS on my TomTom, it's when you come to a stop the needle bounces sometime but not always.

Holy Crap! I thought I used to drink a lot! When I quit my doctor sent me in for tests , to check for liver damage. Everything came back OK. I guess somebody's watching over me. Probably my dear departed mother in law.
