didnt do much to it today other than the weekly fill up, but I did order some bully steps for it, snagged them on ebay for less than half price and probrably pissed of some people with my late bid.

I have been tired of people complaining of no step and no handle so they get half of it, a step that hopefully will last a little

Got my truck out from the shop yesterday. No leaks and drives totally different.
Me happy.
I also went "Mudding" yesterday too. In other words, "Driving through an area of my Granddad's property that I have been warned that it is muddy after a rain."
It wasn't too bad, but I did spin my tires a fair bit. Almost got stuck in another area, had to put it into 4WD to get out without tearing anything up too bad.
Speaking of which, the t-case shifts easier now. I wonder if when they pulled it, they adjusted the linkage. It only took them like 2.5 hours to do the R&R of the t-case. lol

Installed my new Accel 24lb fuel injectors, going for a test drive today down to Kelowna, BC. -1c today winter is on it's way.

Edit: I would like to say a whole bunch of bad words to the Dodge boy's for NOT putting a serviceable fuel filter or a fuel filter that can be changed out ez on these trucks. I am making up a new fuel line with a filter sometime over the next couple of weeks and will post part numbers and cost. The amount of s*** that was in my fuel rails was just insane.
