Good morning boys and girls!
Happy New Year to all. I'm off to a decent start...went to see the Rams play football (or act like it anyway) yesterday! Lots of fun, but lots of driving too.
Rich, I'm glad to hear that you're going to stay stateside for awhile. Do you know what you'll be doing yet?
I mean, BESIDES choosing pew bows....

Pickin pew bows, LMAO we will be lucky to have pews, probably more like hay bales. I will be working for a company outa Huntsville AL, inspecting/test flying Mi-17 helicopters.
With prob no more than 2 weeks at a time away from the house, with overseas travel, but in safer areas. Might get to go to Russia to the factory where they make them?
Penny said, hay bales and flip flops and FORD trucks, we might qualify for that red neck wedding show?
Lee thanks for the advice, ARB in the front with the capibility to turn off and on sounds great. Might just weld up the rear, aka "lincoln locker" ?

Darrell there was about 4" of snow on my truck. All fluffy stuff, so it all blew off going down the road. i bet everyone behind me loved that lol.
Rich. I've seen alot of lincoln locker gernade, because of **** poor welding jobs. but I have seen some that lasted through some tough wheeling. Those one were welded at ever intersectoin of gears IE 8 different weld points. I wish I can remember what rod was used to weld them with. I'm thinking it was 1/4' rod and hi heat.

Yea I have heard that, lucky I know a guy up here that does it all the time. So he is good and experienced, plus it will be on an extra D60 rear end I have anyway.
It looks like with the weather we are having that it will be a spring time project.

Morning all, well gotta drag my bullet heater out to do a little thawing of water lines up at my sis's place.
I am ready for spring, anyone else? Hope the roads are clear by fri, Penny and I are going to Tulsa to get her a copy of here birth cert, so she can get her DL renewed (pita).
And of course do a little gambeling and arms/guns/craigs-list shopping.
