Got to put her back together

I just got a call that some family butchered a beef and I'm in need, so next weekend, we're off to cut and wrap. Only problem is, I'll have to use the truck for it. I won't have time this week to get my other axle and intercooler in, so I'll have to just piece things back together for now and then pull them back apart next week..... NUTS!

That's to bad, nothing worse than making extra work for yourself but sometimes it is unavoidable. Lucky for me I have two trucks, 3 if you want to count the chev.

Consider it practice Dave! I personally love doing that kinda stuff, although I can see how it would suck a little if you have to take it apart again so soon!

Well, my son and I are getting a LOT quicker at it! I might get a chance to start ripping and tearing on Saturday. Fingers crossed........ I'm going to pick up my shackle reversal kit today in North Dakota. There's a guy 3 miles south of the border that runs a business out of his garage being the drop off point for Canadians buying stuff from the states. Costs $5 for the service and has saved me quite a bit on a couple items. Cross border shipping can be $$$$$$!!

It's really awesome to have this service. His website is thebordersrevices.com
I realize that doesn't help most of you, but for the few 'tobans over here, it can't hurt.
Got my parts. Can't wait to put them on!!!!!!!!!

Just found out that the amount of meat WILL fit in the car, so there was no need to put her back together.... Practice makes perfect I guess.
