Good morning everyone! We managed a leveling kit and a replacement GPR for Jim, aux backup lights for my rig, repaired train horns for Tim, and started Pete on the way to having a 6.0 tranny cooler and JW valve body. Didn't get that 100% finished because it turns out one of his tranny bolts had been stripped previously. The previous owner had helicoiled it, but since they are really meant to be one time use, Pete will have get a new one today and finish it today.

Good Morning CT....
Sorry I missed all the fun yesterday, but Blue didn't cooperate, sounds like you did get a lot done.
Were getting some sleet and freezing rain now, I guess the bumper cars will start soon. Well going to Brunch with the family, catch you all later.

Greg that offer is VERY appreciated although I managed to get my truck straightened out and the shop cleaned today. And that extra pizza didn't go to waste either. 
But it cost me 36 bucks for a heli coil kit.
and that was down from 41$ after the lady at NAPA felt sorry for me.
