What have you done to your ride lately?

Will pay to see Cmack get tased
Pulled the shocks and UCAs, installed new uniballs and cleaned and greased the bushings before reinstall. Big thanks to my mechanic and good friend Bryan for pressing out and in the uniballs at 5:30 on a holiday weekend. My penance is having to help him fix the brakes on the dragster tomorrow morning.

New one when?

could be this weekend, we'll see what i can find and work out in my favor. if the price isnt right, ill wait.

I'm sure that was fun (speaking from experience). Did you install your UCA bolts backwards when you put them in?

the heat in my driveway was a bitch. oddly the uca reinstall was super easy. bolts were backwards and the sheetmetal was already pulled back so there were no struggles.

Most likely yes I don't think your going to get it off without a puller

You can get it off without a puller. A good whack with a deadblow in the center and it should pop off. Never had to use a puller.. especially on a newer rig.

Nice.

Now please don't stop at any stop lights where I am, and please don't be around me in slow traffic near me. Okay? :D

Remember the wake we create...

That is all.

IDK Sean's has a hell of a system, and even when he's got it turned up, it doesn't shake a whole city block like the fucking gangsters that drive around here in SA.

I'll bet you wouldn't hear it at all if he pulled up next to you at a stop light.

I think that has to do with all the dynomat he put down in his truck.

Well now im gonna drive all the way to Morning Glory and find you in the middle of traffic. And I don't rattle. I HATE rattles. I've spent significant amounts of time eliminating them. :)

No, you would hear the bass, but there would be no rattles. And Seans system is what im working towards or will do when I get a steady full time job...

Irs worth EVERY penny. Not only is truck quieter, your system will sound so much better.

I wired up some bed lights on the red truck. I still need a relay and the switch but all the wiring is in place ready to go. Still working on the rocklights. Its gonna have to wait a little longer to finish due to the fact Im heading to Destin FL for the rest of the week tomorrow early in the am.

Cleared out all the stereo equipment, and some random wires.

And tracked down a major short, that probably should have burned the truck down. This wire went from the battery, to so random stuff, and then branched off into te Frame towards the rear of the truck. The wire had been burning a lot.

Yeah, not so much. I also got me a fire extinguisher. After seeing this mess, I should probably pick up a couple more.

No doubt, might still have a few out back. Most of the old buses are hauled off now and I have already stole most of the extinguisters..lol
