degreased the engine..
it's still dribbling a little bit of oil and I need to make sure that f*%$er of a turbocharger doesn't need to come back off.

I was impressed too, but then it was Alot of highway driving and there were cops EVERYWHERE! So we pretty much had to do 65 the whole time. Otherwise I would have never got that high of mpg's.

Hutch mod. It turned out to be easier to lower the behemoth tank half the distance I needed and lift the truck the other half.

I got my Bilstein shocks in today and after work I was feeling froggy, so I jumped right in.

I got the left front tire off and then my air comp. decided to go south for the rest of Winter. So I got 1 shock installed and everything back together. Too cold to do the other side, so it will have to wait until tomorrow.

hmmm i dont have to take off my tires to change my shocks or jack up the truck i just stick my head in lmao

I installed a 12,000 wireless controlled winch and ran 1/0 welding cable front and rear with connectors so i can use the winch front or rear. I also removed my factory rear bumper and installed a ranch hand rear bumper.
