Finally picked up my dream truck!

Ok, after 2 years. The injectors were bad, one plunger stuck and flooded the crankcase. They had the wrong injectors in, so put new ones in and did bearings just to be safe.

Then the ECM died a month later. Then I heard the rush under boost of a nice leak in the air to air system. It needed a new cooler, but still was leaking. It was the hose to the compressor.

With all that fixed, most of the time I feel like I'm breaking the law! It's just too much fun to drive.

Cosmetically, I got rid of the cab extenders and changed the turn signals to round ones. I'm getting it painted and will change the cab lights and replace the horns as not all of them work. I'll share an update after the paint.

 

I wish I knew. I lost the page where I wrote down the kilometers when I picked it up. I can say that it has 44,000 since I changed the speedometer in December. I'm guessing that i have probably put on about 200,000 since getting it.

 

I just got it painted. Mostly because I was having problems with the horns and cab lights, and my body guy didn't want to do it twice. I'm pretty stoked!

 

What other blue truck?

Lol

 

For a comparison top picture is in Montana, on the trip home from picking it up near Calgary.
