I'm pretty sure the neighbors out by my folks think we are running a chop shop or junk yard out of the barn.

Is that where you have to put the cab to mount a 350 in there? I bet that's weird to drive!

You guys need to calm down on that FB stuff. There are so many idiots on there I just laugh, it's not worth getting upset over. I see Jeff Fandrich (sp?) got some retard banned because he was bragging it up about smoking all the time. Then they passed his name around to some of the other groups in case he showed up there.

I told him he might as well go frame down and paint it all. He was happy it has a T5 in it. Hopefully it will hold up to his driving style.

Yeah that's exactly what I was talking about Jon. What's even the point of lying about mpg on the internet??

So jaeger went in for the tie rod recall. Turns out they replace the whole tie rod assembly. The Nice thing is my steering wheel is now straight after the lift I put in last November. They did call and say my ball joints were wore out, and the left axle u-joint was binding. I told them kindly to shove it (I didn't mention the ONLY reason I actually brought the truck in was because of the recall)

Hey at least you got to take the RC. My wife always vetoes my pickup unless I convince her we need it for something.

You need to do some more training on her. I tell mine we are taking the truck. She knows there are two options. Stay home or get in.

Nah, she's got hot food waiting for me most every day when I get home from work. Does my laundry, keeps the house clean, I'm not going to push it.

From the research I've done Ellis they claim its the same T5 that's in the Camaro. We shall see I guess.

[ellis93]

It ain't,I promise. Gear tooth count and size are all different,weaker.

Anybody have an idea what a used '93 VE 12v is worth? 298k miles, newer injection pump I believe in the last 20k of that, but I'd have to look at the records, we've owned it since new.
Been saving dads old motor for a project, or a spare for the dually, but a little piece of America has caught my eye, so I'm thinking of selling it to help with a down payment.
Was a thought, still on the fence about it, cause its a spare, and is complete, but id prolly never need it, and the $$$ be nice

We're discussing transmissions (in a tractor sense) in my engines and powertrains class so I gave my instructor some old frictions and steels, plus a front planetary from my last transmission build. He didn't have any clutch packs or decent planetaries for show and tell purposes. I have NEVER seen someone get so excited about junk transmission parts

Sold the dump truck today. Boy is bringing the money tomorrow and meeting me to get title switched. His PSD just blew up and he needed a truck.

He would have done better to buy it before he bought the plow and spreader off of it. He played a lot more for it in the long run.
