Thanks buddy
This truck has a track history of always making it to the designated destination but doesn't always make it home.
When we spread my dad's ashes I hope a trailer isn't needed but I already scoped out a place.

Just drove around in the sub division put 10 miles on it
Right on man!!! Way to stick with it!
Thanks, hopefully next week I can figure out the leaks and start on some fab projects I have in mind.
Sweet! Good news!
Very good! It's always feels better when you move onto another project.
Thanks man, it seems to be shifting fine but I haven't put a lot of miles on it.
So before fab time I should probably fix the few leaks I have.
The trans is leaking from the pos drain plug I installed, thinking about trying to clean it wrap some Teflon tape on it and sneak a new o ring over the bolt head. I have no idea why they supplied such a crap o ring that pinches out the side when it gets even just a hint firm.
For what ever reason It is leaking engine oil and running down the bell housing of the trans. I'm pretty sure it's where the auto meter gauge is at the top of the block in the back.
Also have the water spout on the water pump leaking where it goes into the pump, I missed my warranty by 3 months.... Might try and see if they will warranty one anyway.

I should have done it to began with, but I'm trying not to remove the entire plug so I don't dump 5 qts out.
Those are all factory style and they have like a 14.5 head and strip out easy. Not to mention they have a spot weld inside to hold the nut.
Ahhh, this is a aftermarket dorman drain plug.
