I picked up new rear floor mats for the diesel and took a side trip to look at a rat rod in the area. K.

Yours is in Indiana. The guy I got it from has more.

Its going behind a 4bt cummins, its a factory bolt up. Its allso $850 cheaper than an nv4500. I still need to check it out and see if it needs a rebuild.

Those ZF Tranny's sure are tough!(No pun intended lol)

Chopped off my tailpipe and glasspack and installed an 18" straight pipe, with a downpipe. Then, my dad got stuck in his little Escape; highcentered on some hard packed snow, so I went and got him. Had to back down the mountain side about a mile long, no way were either of us to turn around, so reverse it was.



Only pic I got, was when I got there, just about to strap up. Also, burnt my clutch a little, my wide tires aren't suited for the tiny ruts that were up there, so I kept veering off to the sides every now and then

Guess it's time to take the Escape emblems off that car.

on Saturday I drove it a couple hundred miles for a cummins meet in the center of the state.

and on Sunday I tightened the exhaust clamp on the S400 turbo as it had come loose, and I installed my back up camera finally. I can see from my rear bumper now!
