Well i have oil leak at the back of my engine that i dont have the tools or shop to fix myself. Im also looking into putting a 4 inch lift on my truck, and changing the ram assist power steering to a 78, 79 ford power steering box. I want to do some engine upgrades as well. Right now the truck has a stock 390, id like to change the intake manifold and put a 4 barrel card and headers on it.

Ha Ha ya moab is a little out of the way. I sure love it down their. I used to own a few jeeps and head down every year for easter and memorial day. I might bring this truck down that way someday once i have lockers and a dana 60 in the front.

I use a private guy from work. He does the work in the garage at his house. Seems to be solid work at a cheaper price than the big guys. He lives in Clearfield.
