    Update from Daytona Beach

    I only have two neighbors on the other side of the street. Woods on both sides of the house. I looked into the laws about the truck months ago. I only found one that says no trucks over 1 ton, in the driveway for more than 48 hours,which does not make any sence. :confused: The cadillac in the...

    Soon to be broke!

    Thanks to all for the concern. I do have to report, that I THINK, I have the noise narrowed down to the clutch. I do not hear the noise when she is cold. Once I am moving down the road, after 5 minutes, the gringing starts. When stopping at a light, depress the clutch, and it sounds...

    Rustproof your bed

    Just to give you all an idea and cost, I thought I would share how I fixed my bed. First, i started off by knocking the big chuncks of rust off. I used the sander and a scrapper. You do not have to go too far, just get the bubbled pieces off. Then a coat of the Rust Treatment, I got at Sherwin...

    Soon to be broke!

    Good Morning, I found the breather for the T-Case, looking foward, top left, Very dirty up there and it was stuck. Loosed it, will see what happens. I have a feeling the damage has been done. No leaks from the T-Case, or anywhere else on the ground.:-P Gona head out and see what happens...

    Soon to be broke!

    Well Plan B may come through. Just got a bid offer for $1200 to trailer her the rest of the way. Just about as much as I paid for her:confused:. I read AFTER I bought her, It's not how much she costs, but what it takes to maintain her.. I'll have to sleep on it, Thanks for everything...
