You're pretty good at this. Maybe we should stick Ray on probation and have you do the posting for a while.

Well it looks like the guys are calling it a night! The valve covers are off and they have 2 of the glow plugs out.. but due to ppl (mainly me, Amanda, and my brother) having to work tomorrow, they are going to just stop for the night. Thanks for all the suggestions guys!!

Just a lil bit of an update. I decided to call it a night about 0045 this morning.I had all of the drivers side Glow plugs swapped out and was trying to get the bolts back in when i decided to call it a night. After a well deserved sleep-in, i got started this morning and had the passengers side glow plugs swapped in no time.

I had a lil extra time so i decided to hook my brother in law up with Foil Delete, a muffler delete, and factory step bar delete. Come on its a 2wd who needs them when the truck sits that low!!!! He is well on his way to joining the 'Hood!!!

My carport is a work in progress, when i get the time and extra fundage i will be putting up 8 flurescent lights! That should be enough lighting for a working area of 24x28. And i ll be putting up 3 in my 24x12 man room on the back of the carport.

The project went pretty smooth. I would say there will be several more Mod. parties coming in the near future. Hopefully with a lil more advanced notice.
