Hauled a new grill, some 2x4's and some 19/32 OSB. (more OSB and shingles to come. Gotta re-roof the garage, darn!)

Checked torque on both CV nuts, and installed nutlock and cotter pins.

Feels great to finally be able to drive her again.

Today I put an Edelbrock Aircleaner set up onto my truck using the K&N Filter that was already on it instead of the paper filter the Eddie came with. Had a few issues with it right off the bat since I needed a 3/4 Spacer and a longer bolt to attach it to. Although after a trip to lordco and the donation of from a friend of mine its all hooked up!

I installed a vinyl tonneau cover from www.lundinternational.com. Best thing to ever happen to my truck, I can haul my tools and keep them dry!

Well after my 2nd return to the local Dodge Dealer because they failed to fix my electrical issue again.(Fuse blew again both times before I even made it home.)

I parked the truck for a few hours then decided to poke my head in to see what they messed around with.

For some reason my Windshield washer fluid container was unscrewed and laying sideways close to my engine. I fixed that while trying to figure out why the hell it was even loose lol.
