Yup. It's hot enough to motivate my lazy butt to install the air conditioner.
Now I'm gonna go get some stuff since dad's birthday is thursday.

Okie, so I need a 'selectable' locking differential, whatever that is.
I thought that all 'lockers' were selectable, they were either locked or not.
Eh, I learned something: selectable versus automatic, TY

Lord have mercy on me, I just pulled the trigger and placed the order for my new:
Five Tires
Five Rims
Four Chrome Rim Trim Rings
Four Stainless Steel Domes for the Hubs
Four Bilstein Shocks
Chrome Lug Nuts
A Torque Stick.
A Lifting Tool to Manhandle the 160 Pound Wheels
These pictures are about what my wheels will look like, black powder coat.
I better hide my guns.

Hi Sean.
Not so bad, the nuke powerhouse had one building that was over a 110 on days like today.

Hi Ken:
I've been busy these past couple days, not that its 'work' here at work.
Got to figure out what I'm buying for the van, you can see I've done the wheels, now its back to figuring out the differentials.

Ya Ken:
Kept you in business, and I hope the non-business pickup truck market returns.
I said to my brother while standing near his boat that hasn't left the driveway since its one 'vacation' last summer.
I go out for a cruise in my 'boat' daily.
