Make sure you hit the frost heaves at around 120kph when your up there. You can actually get some air under the tires. Awe I miss Dawson. It one of the few places that have a bar open until 4am. Totally crazy times, going from the bar right to work. No sleeping require or the need for a hotel room. You staying at the Dawson hotel? They have the ballerina dancers there too. It helps to pass the time, afterwards you just crawl up to your hotel room.

 

10-4 on that. all that gear was mine before. it was the D80 out of my old red '98.5

 

Haha I wish my luck came in 3's... I stopped counting after the turbo haha, Lets see here since september I have HAD to replace:
Tranny 6000
Turbo 1900
Rear end 2000
Brakes x5 450(warrenty for most)
Front end 3000
PCU 1000
Tires x4sets 1300,300,500,800
Intakes x2 190,60
Lift pumps x3 600
VP44 1200
All that and its worth half of what I bought it for, and this isnt even counting the stuff I didnt have to replace but did anyways...

 

You must make too much muney buddy. Sure beats the monthly morage payment on a new ride thats just gonna break if you actually use the vehicle. So did you get those tires spinning again.

 

Watching Fredneck blow up his truck yet again. Priceless!

Sorry but I couldn't resist Fred.

 

good one Badgerette

 

Amazing how a $150 set of work boots on a skinny $2 pedal can cost soooo much. Maybe switch to slippers...

 

The life buddy, the life. At least you get to see daylight. I'm starting to think all I see is the fake in-door's light. You guys putting on any big miles lately?

 

Oh come on, you get out to the field too.. Mind you I have been locked in my office for the last week.

 

At site you arrive in the dark. Work at the site, inside, go home in the dark. Or go downtown in dark, inside, and come home to work in the garage, inside.

I did a Fred yesterday, I start-up my truck without any exhaust hooked up. Makes me wonder why dodge even put an exhaust system on the truck. Things you need to try this and why??

It makes you smell like diesel. Works nice with the wifey.

 

I miss all my clothes smelling like diesel, I'm starting to have withdrawls.... stupid part hasnt shown up yet!!

 

So your saying that the town of high river is safe for the moment

Where did you get the part from? How did the wires get damaged? That truck is going to be brand new again buddy. Good work, and keep those size 12's down hard on the go pedal.

 

Yep. My mortgage payment on mine is done and with the company truck parked in the driveway..........it's just easier to jump in it. She's moved once since X-mas. I need to consciously take her for a run.

The funny thing is I still have parts to throw......got my hands on a Scotty 5 that's waiting and some other trinkets. Unfortunately, when I have the time, the weather isn't cooperating, so one would freeze if he tried to get something done.

I believe I told Kevin, Tate and Shane, not so long ago even, that I was done...............hhhmmmmmmmm. Fred may have been present as well.

 

But when are you really done modding the truck anyways?

I put mine back to stock just so I can just dream about having a modded truck. I've owned my truck for 5 years now, the darn thing still pulls money out of my wallet for stuff I don't want to pay for.

Don't let the cold drag you down. I've been replacing a head gasket in my warm garage, which sounds good. The space between the front of my truck and my garage door is about 4 to 6inchs, so I've had to slim down to work on the old girl.

I still do enjoy the rattle shake shake that the old truck does. Scares off the young kids and old women.

 

Daylight savings starts Sunday...Hmmm....Mike I have to pick up a share tire from you...
