Sounds like you guys are going to have alot to do! Sure wish I could make it. Especially if you rebuild that tranny cause I need to do something with mine by summer. If you rebuild it take notes!

Ok just got a pm from Mike anytime after 9am on Sunday will work. I need a head count because I am picking up food and grilling, everyone can just chip in a few bucks to cover the cost of the food/ drinks when we get there. I will wait till Saturday night to shop so let me know who is coming over. Once I get a head count I will give you his address via PM so you can find your way. Thanks I look forward to meeting some new folks and having a great day.

I wish I would have saw this before 9pm sat night sounds like fun but a little short notice to give the girlfriend. I am watching way to many forums and have forgot about the MN chapter, there has been a lot of activity since the last time I looked.

We were lame and took absolutely no pictures. Doh!
Mikes truck was in the tranny shop so we didn't do anything to his truck but he supplied the shop, sodas, coffee (mmmmm), chips, and countless tools and help!!!
My truck I put on the Marinco weatherproof inlet for the block heater and changed out the vacuum lines to the front hubs for the ESOF.
Toms truck they put in a new VSS (which did not fix his problem), wired up an LED for the GPR, fixed his way cool running lights, and I am drawing a blank on anything else. Tom brought and cooked some awesome burgers (next time bring some ketchup would ya?).
Another Mike from Osceola came over and ran us to the store for tools and another member who's name I did not catch stopped by also.
That was about it in a nutshell I think.

Jay,
The last guy was Adam and I ran AE on his truck. We also looked at my drivers window that goes 3/4 down and slows way down. We greased the rails and it still didn't work. Concensus is the motor is on the way out. Also put on weatherstripping on drivers door.
