Drove it to my uncles and hauled some garbage out with it, then brought back some scrap metal with it. Getting my new tires put on tomorrow.

Incidentally, one of my old tires has a roofing nail in it

I probably don't "need" the ramps, but the extra height gives me plenty of opportunity to really get under there and inspect stuff... As long as it's not coated in a splattering of new oil!

Got a new hitch assembly and tested it. Replaced the tie rod ends on my lifted 2x4. I had a crazy wobble at the steering wheel at 65 mph. I also rechecked the torque on the spindle nut and replaced the cotter pin. Freshened it up with an alignment. She's feels great on the road! Getting ready to do the plenum plate swap-out soon!

2x4 is a board. 4x2 is a truck.

Pulled dash out of truck and replaced the heater core. Ordered new dash and new A/C and heater control unit. Now I hope I will remember how to put everything back together once the parts come in.

Are you 'memory challenged' as well? I hate it when that happens.

Welcome to DF!

Well my iac took a crap on me, so today I got a new one and did a test drive. All is better now... Oh and I also planned out everything I want to do to my truck. Now I just need to save the money.
