Just went and picked one up

5 bucks! lol

Picked up one of those "eagle hawk" things just for giggles and god it felt like plastic.... cheap porous terrrible casting.

Kobalt wrench has a pretty nice feel though. A little too smooth, but nice and hefty.... not quite like my 30 year old crafstman i got from my gramps, but it will get the job done


Cool fact.. grampa showed me his brass tool kit. He worked maintenance at a an armory and he has a whole set of tools made of brass tools so he wouldnt make a spark and blow the whole place up

 

You have transfer case nuts??? Where are you talking about?

Yeah, with 33s/35s the 4lo and 4.10s gave me giggle on how low. A nice appreciation.

 

Where the t case and trans mate. They are Studs with nuts

 

^^^ Why yes they are and the one is just a bitch to get to anyone that has worked on R&Ring one would know that.

 

yep, done it a couple times... that top bolt absolutely sucks!

i usually remove my trans mount, and set the trans right down onto the crossmember. makes things MUCH easier!

 

+1 You got it right redneck_ram, hands down the best way if you don't have a body lift.

 

Ordered a couple ball joints. Getting the truck ready for some new shoes.

 

The 96 was put through a full VI this summer, lots of things to get it ready, from DRL's to Cab mounts, windshield. Some other parts were added over the summer as well. All work was done by me shy of the windshield.

A few photos for the photo ****** out there.

New windshield

 

No wonder why I didn't see you posting much, you were busy with all that! I take it they salt the roads up there?

 

Salt and some liquid **** that just eats sheet metal.

There were these two projects as well. CAUTION CHEVY PHOTO"S BELOW. Both have been sold.
