I can't wait to get my truck down here so I can tear into it (read my latest post in the "Ugh, more problems" thread), A few of the side projects I'll be doing is taking the front bumper off to remove some of the rust that is forming on the back of it and than coating it so it doesn't come back; as well as completing my electrical projects on it. Oh, and installing permanent transmissions lines. _____________________________ 1996 Dodge Dakota - broke again. 1986 Honda Civic CRX - "new" daily driver quote: Original: AF.mil The similarities between the Air Force and the coffee business were deep (in reply to codydakota) Post #: 2
