That back mount was the only thing holding the entire assembly in place all weekend. Now I know what it lowered; it stretched and pulled forward then settled.

Jacked the body back into alignment and put new body lift spacers where I had 2 missing. Seems this also put the clutch back into adjustment. While doing this I found some rust issues with the body support channels under the front floorboards. I will address that when I cut the floors out to patch them.

My radio is toast from the rain. Any recommendations on a marine grade single din Bluetooth radio?

No radio required. Just get a speaker that connects to your phone so that you can jam to your Backstreet Boys collection. Must have been a long trip to FL without that!

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!

Gotta order a few things from Toms. Guess that and painting still doesn't count as wrenching...

Dwight is probably halfway finished with his new project.

Not quite Bart. Remember it is deer season and that slows progress slightly. Get your tail out there and get my motor pulled. LOL

I hear ya.

Been welding the roll cage up and adding a few things to it (rear seat belts, overhead cb radio bracket, and mounts for my marine ghetto blaster speakers). Actually turned a wrench as well, unbolting the exhaust system. I need to finish welding it but am waiting for some mounting brackets to arrive.

Tom's got some of my money today as well. Their sale on the fender flares was very tempting but I used some restraint.

It's so quiet that I don't even hear crickets on here. No, I don't have a life.
