Updating my wreck thread

 

I was coming to work on the freeway this morning and in front of me was a black and silver HD. Very nice truck with a young woman driving it. Made me almost miss my exit (the truck). Those things are so good looking.

 

yea i love both versions of the 03 HD's

 

Off to R/R my leaf springs.

 

I had a good supper. Fiesta lime chicken at Applebee's.

 

I made Kung Pao chicken for dinner... Was really good.

It's about to storm good here... Probably gonna get a tornado or three too. It's 65* right now. Supposed to be 33* tonight.

 

Leafs are in. Rides a little different. 1/2" or so higher than before.

 

That's good tornado weather right there. We've got a chance of tornadoes on Saturday probably. It's gonna be in the 50's then turn to snow overnight.

 

It rained here, a little lightning. Nothing too big.

 

2.5 hours, not bad working by yourself

 

Plus I had a jack failure. The hydraulic 1980's floor jack I had took a dump. I had to use the stock jack on top of an old Army metal ammo box under the hitch. I got it up just high enough that the leafs were off the axle and put the stands under the rear frame. I ran out of light (flashlight time), and it started raining for the final torque.

 

did it fail with the weight of the truck on it? That could be scary.....


Opinions needed


With roof paint or without, or stay silver

 

Nope, doen't work for me. Needs something on the sides and it needs to come down on the lower valence, narrower.

 

Jim/Will what did you do to your name? Its in BOLD now?

 

Kind of neat, huh?
