Need to groove those tires. I drive by your work every day. Can drop off groover if needed.
 
Yeah I want to. I'll have to do that once I get a few other things taken care of. Did yours perform any better after the grooving?
 
Get anything done on it this week?

With all the snow I wasn't able to work on the truck till last night and I only had 2 hours to work. Got it melted off and started mounting my receiver. Just need to burn it in.

I messed around with the 60 a little. Found out the drivers lockout is destroyed. Calipers are going to be fun to get off.

Goal is to get it running today or at least cranking over if there are other issues.
 
A good source for cheap junkyard lockouts is 3/4 ton IFS Fords.

For some reason it won't crank over right now. Will have to look into it.
 
Ripped the interior out cause it smells horrid.

Thinking I'm going to bed line it and buy a new vinyl mat.

Also found a mouse nest in the intake tube. That was the worst thing I've ever smelled.

I don't know. Did it before ever wheeling it. Then seem to do as well as any other similar sized tire. Seem pretty sticky. Trailworthy said it was a worthwhile mod.

You mean worse than the Obama administration? :D[/QUOTE]

Yes. I hate mice so much.
