And as for pads, I got ~97k out of original fronts, and I'm still on original rears at 153k.
I've got a NEW, not reman., master on it.
New booster, calipers, pads, hoses, mounting hardware, shoes, wheel cylinders, hardware, and machined drums. Like I said, most of the braking system.

Let mine sit and be buried in snow lol. A friend and I went and looked at a 2000 1500 w/ a 360 for him. Guy wants $6,290 for the truck, real clean truck with a lil bit of rust. Engine has 175,000 and a brand new tranny with only 25 miles on it. $1,000 or 3 month warranty on engine and everything on the truck but the trans. has a 1 year warranty.

@DodgeDude:Wild stab in the dark by Wombat: rear wheel cylinders. Mine were leaking dangerously bad when I bought my '95.

Today I put $72 in the '93 and drove the 75ish mile round trip to Cabelas with my best friend who just got home from Army basic training. We both scored gift cards or Christmas, so he got a pistol grip/adjustable stock for his 870, and I got a slip on shock absorber pad for mine, some cleaning/protecting oils, and a knife sharpening stone. I was drooling over the stock he got along with all the other tactical upgrades for 870's, but mine is 62 years old and all original, so none of that for this gun. When I score an old cop issue gun....

I haven't seen anything leaking, but when the level drops again, I'm taking it in. Only problem is, I don't have any money.


Get a Mossberg 590. 8+1 of 2 3/4in shells.

Makes me glad I live in SE Texas. The winters down here have me spoiled. When it gets really cold here, you have to wear a jacket.

Put some bumper lights back on the old girl, same kind as before.. Now I'll able to see on the back roads at night

Stepfather came over in a Chevy 6.5L Turbo Diesel and brought a log splitter, the truck has really tall and narrow Cooper Discover's of some kind on it and it SUCKS in 4wd, I could probably go further with my open diff than it could in 4wd.... Sad....


edit: redneckram, at least I'm not the only one getting stuck around here
