    When I get time, this year sucked for pulling much like everything else, I had to go through a lot of the engine again, three new heads, new pulling clutch and billet flywheel, but it hasn't been hooked to anything for quite a while.

    Great to see you around Cody
    Yep, this year has sucked. Fortunate here, not big debt. Own the truck, couple more years i will have the ex'es half of the house paid for, again.
    Do you still converse with Kurt M(Mr Haney) and Tony W(ynot)?
    Hope your doing well through all the BS.
    Best wishes, :occasion5:

    I hate working on my back as it is these days. Can’t imagine having to do that job in the dirt.

    Hey better to correct it now than worry about it. I know you already know that.

    That’s the great thing about working on your own stuff. You know when you did it wrong.

    The mechanic trying to get the job done because he has a hot date waiting for him, it’s good enough.

    No I don’t talk to much of anyone from the old day on here or TDG.

    I was fortunate that working I agriculture my work is steady and unaffected by the shut downs thankfully.

    SmokinCAT has a special way of adding pressure. He could probably send you a picture of a truck pulling a sled while packing a front wheel or two.
    I have another way. KIMG2009.jpg Letter the hood Semiretireds hart throb.
    By then they pretty much had the oil leaks worked out and the power was strong. Nothing sounds like a V8 with Jakes. Could not pass emissions and still liked fuel.
