Beat up a little by 2nd gen

Some guy in a nice white 2nd gen (with Indiana plates) kept messing with me on the freeway last night, and he was a little faster than me. Made my truck feel like a slug... I gotta get her to the next level!

No Doubt.
I don't know how I got by without OD for all that time. Now on the freeways around here If I'm not in the slow lane with the Big Rigs, I'm going 80-90 MPH ... ALL THE TIME

I guess if I had the Gear Vendors in there I could have eventually walked him (unless he had one too!)

Time for more power adders...

Heck No! I can't do the $750 deal right now. I'm going to pull it apart to see if there is any way I can source the parts to fix it myself. I think all it needs is the OD connical clutch that is made by Raybestos. I can cut gaskets, either by hand or with a friends laser cutter. I might be hosed if any rubber seals are shot though..... I have a good friens who is a prototyping machinist though, so who knows...
