Replaced all 4 tie rod ends today, they were shot beyond belief. It rides and drives 100% better. Next on the list is replacing shocks with some monroes, when i do the procomp es3000s and the monroe trackload shocks will be up for sale, they have less than 2k miles on them if anyone is interested. Front shocks come with 2" leveling spacers, all for 2wd

Well it ended up being too restrictive anyway, it runs better without it.


Went riding again, this time with both my quad and his bike in my Ram, and did a little light wheelin' while we were there. (This picture isn't supposed to portray any wheelin, it's just Dustin being goofy.)

Checked all the fluids, topped off the oil, aired up the rubber to 45PSI. Soon she'll get some gas, then headed South.

Washed, spray waxed, replaced the wiper blades, sprayed some more undercoating, tried to tighten the parking brake (fail), primed the tailgate, getting ready to put the liquid bedliner in...and drove her to work for the first time....

Let the women drive it back to Georgia. Truck did great, no issues with the transmission. U Haul did good too.

New water pump, bypass hose and tube, 180' thermostat. After dealing with that dang blasted clutch fan, I might be upgrading to twin electrics in the future. Tomorrows list, U joints and wheel joints.
