Its that time again..*UPDATE* time ya'll. ???

Re: Its that time again..*UPDATE* time ya\'ll. ???

yeah, umm. i shot santa last year... so he wont stop by here this year..... /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
no, it is going to be a WHILE till i need rims and tires. i now have a second job part time ar a wrecking yard. so i have been getting stuff A LOT faster now.
its nice.
465-203-205-D60-14bolt-5.13....
i "have" it all i just need it to get here. and i need crossover stuff and front springs. but two trucks that might come to the yard at the impound lot have 6 inch springs /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

then i will be a bit farther in the process. i sent some nasty grams out today. hopefully the point will get across. otherwise i will have to make a post on it. i dont want to do that. but i will if i have to.

K30

1. new starter that isn't worn out, possibly new ring gear AGAIN

Get ready for winter. Change to winter shoes on both trucks (not that the 80 sees much salt/snow), replace front crossmember with MOO unit on the 78 and fix crack in said frame, install newly rebuilt front driveshaft on 78, install plow pump, install hydraulics and plow lights on 78, replace oil pan gasket on 80 (still debating whether or not to go one piece gasket), finish interior on 80 (solidly mount dakota digital dash and tilt column), install A/C on 80, toolbox/tonneau combination from Truxedo.com on 80, install rear springs on 80, CLEAN UP ALL MY $TUFF that has accumulated and making HUGE MESS!

While all this is going on, fixing minor issues with Noangel's blazer (fixing broken body mount, replacing/fixing both power windows, installing new door lock switches, fixing/replacing dashpad, install new dash lights as several are burnt out, fixing front pinion yoke **maybe somebody has a spare 10 bolt yoke they would like to part with /forums/images/graemlins/1zhelp.gif ???**, check front end out, fix leak in oil cooler, and get an inspection sticker finally /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif


Good luck to all those with projects (it's what keeps us young and grey haired at the same time) /forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif /forums/images/graemlins/pimp1.gif
