Found a much needed fan shroud on craigslist that was in perfect condition. Now I do not have to worry about loosing my fingers while working around the fan lol. Also replaced all hoses under the hood. Love my bump :)

Stood in the door way to the garage looking at my truck and cursing under my breath that I do not want to do a head gasket swop. :x I just want to drive it :cry:

Horse poop, one ton made the truck ride nicer. Truck didn't even flinch when the driver dumped the bucket onto the bed although I think it did break the rusty spring stacks loose. Having bed sides that come off is a life saver.

Poop is for my 8' x 20' garden. Maybe this year something will grow.

Finished up the custome bracket for mounting a new 5x7" speaker in the stock dash position. Installed the stereo and wired the tach light.

Well, still awaiting my Detroit Locker to be built at the factory, so I took the opportunity to clean up the shop, take care of tools, and move some parts out of the way and into storage in the overhead until I need them. I also sold my Power Lok from my Dana 60 to a young lad from Denver, and got to talk trucks with him...looking forward to helping him out again if I ever can....I took a few minutes to wire brush to strip loose crap and paint off the 4wd oil pan, then put it in the solvent take to soak a bit and get the small build up out of it.....

Replaced a broken rear reflector on my 71. The other night, I slapped the take-off chrome bumper from '70 and replaced the rusty bumper on the '71. Polished 'er up too.

Sa-weeet...

Well started tearing down my engine. Next is the heads. Whats the best way to remove the head bolts? I've been told a impact drill works great.

Started doing some rust removal and painting on the F600 cluster I got from hotrod ford. Not sure yet if I want to go chrome on the bezel itself, or paint it.

Slept all day after working all night... Woke up and worked on making side guides for my dump bed until 11pm, now wondering why I'm not tired.
