I didn't wrench today but I was able to sneak back into town for the weekend and got a couple things done. On Saturday I went over to Chuck's and did a quick oil change, the first one since the 5.0 swap. Then on Sunday Chuck and I pulled the front hubs apart repacked the wheel bearings and found the lock nuts inside the hubs were finger tight on both sides. The new tires were rotated also. I was able to take it back out Sunday night for a drive and the front end vibration has calmed down a lot, it's not completely gone but its way better. We even quieted a couple rattles as a bonus. This was my absolute short list of things I needed to do before the M&G trip as I will probably not be back in Charleston until April 12th. I'm looking forward to the M&G and another couple days at URE. Thanks for the help Chuck!
