I got the spring for my accumulator piston today at a Trans Max shop in town,they told me I didn't need the top spring just the bottom,I checked at the yard at work this morning and we didn't have any Dodge trans,that's the first thing that goes as soon as we get a truck in(I work at one of the biggest salvage yards in central Florida)I get home late all week so this weekend is when i finish my truck.

My Tread Wrights came in today. Got them mounted and balanced. No alignment because my upper ball joints are completely shot- I figured as much.
Before:

three year old BFG Land Terrains (hard to see the wear pattern, but the inside edge is almost smooth)

After:



BFG All Terrains (kinda )
BTW, the spare wouldn't clear the exhaust pipe and the front tires rub at full lock. So much for getting my bed back and tight parking lot maneuvers.

Burn outs on the way home from work. Nothing to hard it was more of a stop than break them lose and drive away. No break stands.
