Finished cleaning out the first bay of the barn (did the middle bay yesterday). I can get the Rams out of hail damage now (as long as I'm at home). K.

Yeah, I would have tried to film some of it, but he got to my house after 10pm, and we were outside until 11:45 pm, pitch black outside. I took a few pictures, but it's not easy to see what's going on.

Getting 11.4 mpg after my last fill up, I'm happy with it for being a new motor.

Picked up sand paper, alcohol, news papers and black primer paint to tackle the roof of the 98 farm truck. Sanding & cleaning late afternoon in the barn then tape off and paint tomorrow afternoon.

Edit 1&2 . Got her sanded and cleaned. Time for paint. Thought I'd wait until I have the wife back so I don't break the real leg. I stopped in
on a new diesel supplier today and found a windshield wiper reservoir for the 98 farm truck for $10 K.

Replaced the cracked guage bezel. My interior officially has no cracks anywhere! wooot.

I bought an ebay replacement, was actually kinda pissed when i recived it. Fit is a little off and it required painting and it was only $20 cheeper than if i were to have gotten a mopar or used one. but it looks 1000x better than the cracked one.

used some rust stop to hit the pinch welds of my door. It has rusted through and broken the weld so i get a super anoying rattle. the Rust stop worked well enough to stop the rattle since it has some adhesive qualities

sounds like it is time for the 4th gen T-steering upgrade

unless you have stock wheels... then you might go for 99 HD T-steering, or you can grind down the studs on the tie rod ends to clear the wheels.
