Got the fuel system all plumbed and done..but I forgot another part I needed..a damn male end to go into my tube adapter..bleh. I totally forgot about that and I had all female hose ends.







the part I need my male end for..and pretend you dont see my rusty *** frame. someday I'll get that cleaned up.

got some more work done. started getting the rear end back on. need to get a new bushing/sleeve for the one that had a bolt siezed in the sleeve. I pulled all the other bushings to get them cleaned up and lubed. Got my new 930 CV boots installed so my axles can go back in. Just need to get the upper and lower control arms painted and they can go back on. Should have the front end back on the tires soon, and the rear when I get my new bushings and bolts.




ready for a cleaning and some fresh paint



messy job after packing with new grease..but all done and ready to go

yeah they are nice and compact. I don't believe the billet aluminum ones like mine are,but at 35 bucks a piece not a big deal to replace them.

Nothing wrong with that. Gives me lots of time to find a good line, and learn the dunes while its not crowded.

im seriously pumped. I resigned from work yesterday, and am finished on the 30th, so i have a few days of full free time to get last minute things done.

Somebody should Talk to Patrick. He's usually up there before us since he doesn't live very far away.

Wow. Truck is looking damn good Andy. Good to see you still wrenching on it. I might even be wrenching on my 99 here soon (assuming I can get the 07 sold and pick up a new DD).
