Any time buddy, I'm just around the house today. I have to put on a new magnaflow exhaust from my truck so I don't have to do a fast Freddy to long. I have to cut out the old 5in exhaust and put in a wimpy 4in. Hopefully it sounds good. I could go into town tomorrow, PM me your PH#, I could stop by and take a look at your sand box buddy. I could also drop it off next week as well, as I just have to go to the office next week. Meetings, meetings and more meetings. Three days of NFG meetings for stuff I don't even care about. Just like banging you head against the wall, but you have to smile more.

I should have taken pictures to show the differences between my 5in and the new 4in magnaflow HIPO exhaust that I just put on. I'm not even putting on the exhaust tip. I like to stock look right now. There tons of room to put in a 4in exhaust, 5in, its tight fit. There almost no noise coming out the exhaust. I might even be able to go thru a fast food chain without turning off the truck.

Hey I been there. I even had to start to truck up with no turbo on it just see if it still worked.

Hey, I'm rolling again, my turn to break something.

Nothing wrong with tools. One day it will save you more than you spend on it. Just might take awhile. I have to come over and see what you got on the go and I guess drop off a tire.

No rust, I have a small dent on the driverside rear fender, right at the bottom, little small thing. And then on the passenger side rear door, The first time I was loading my truck onto my trailer, it was late (after midnight) I was tired, it was raining, and i didnt have it in 4x4. I went on, the back tires spun a little, so I went to back off, and the front tire went up on the fender of the trailer, then slipped off. On the trailer there is some 1/4 steel guides that stick up a bit,, when the truck fell off the fender it smacked that.. I was so mad,,,,, arrrrgggh

that I and I would like to have a better paint job on the roll pan...

Kevin
