Had some fun on the river bottom by my house and the aftermath of it:

Hauled about 3,000 to 4,000 of sod rolls yesterday in the little 1500. My uncles so called "trusty" F350 wouldn't start go figure. And then the guy at home Depot with the fork lift just dropped it in there. It was a cringing moment watching the whole truck just sagg all of a sudden after he fully dropped it in there.And of course my uncle said "oh its not in there all the way" even though it was near the edge.So the fork lift operator did it again Yah but after like 3 attempts of re positioning the pallet in the truck and probably taking the lifespan off my shocks and leaf springs. The little 1500 hauled it, Im kinda amazed at the power of the 360 though.

 

Everything is quite blurry, did you lose a wheel?

 

Removed my cat, cat didn't look bad but every now and then you could hear it rattling around. If it drys up this weekend I'll get the precat O2 replaced with an NGK and do the non fouler trick on the rear O2.

 

Gave the old 98 a free car wash (rain 70 mph), on a Rat Rod eval. Some of these old 40's Dodges are off the beaten path. There was a sapling growing through the 1.5 ton floor board. I picked up some chrome lug nuts for the trucks. While I was in that town, I stopped by Barnes & Noble for the WSJ. K.

 

Draining the tranny for another pan drop. Im changing the filter, tighten the rear band, and install the valvebody kit ive had sitting around and forgot about.

 

Dropped the old fluid and put some new ATF+4 in there, came out in a light brown. Very tiny bits of metal shavings on the plug, not bad, not bad at all. Feels like it moves into gear, smoother

 

Finally got around to swapping in 1 ton rear brake cylinders. Best $15 I've spent! Truck can finally lock up the 35's and stops on a dime. Used to nose dive a lot under medium braking, now a lot more evenly.

 

finally got to test out the grabber at2's in the mud... not very impressed for an a/t tire... my duratracs were better, even as bald as they were.





those ruts are close to 12" deep. yard was a bit softer than expected.

gonna have to rototill and buy more loam than originally planned. not looking forward to my mom coming home from work..........

 

Sweet, I just got brownie points! Does it also help if I have two jobs??
