I called Boots and he made a drive thru at The Ranch for me. He said everything was still standing and all fences were in tact.

He also said that the rain gage at Danny's, about a mile from me, showed a little over 3 1/2 inches of rain and 60 MPH winds.

Now maybe Robert will get a little more water in Lake Lavon and be able to wash his truck.

 

Rain at North Denton (Where I live) showed 7 5/8"... Some areas still flooded...

 

I have a feeling it still wasn't enough! I will be watching the newspaper Thursday for sure to see if the new readings have "officially" broken this drought!



I thought I heard where some areas of Denton Co. got over 10''. I bet Lake Lewisville is happy!

 

There dumping lake Lewisville to keep it low in order to build another bridge... Make the most dangerous lake in Texas even more dangerous...

 

I bet the marinas on Lake Lewisville are loving that!

 

Yall should see college station. It got torn up BAD. Fences down one road are either blown over or they look like they exploded. Trees are completely uprooted or broke in half. And we didn't have a tornado. I guess it was worse in college station than bryan last night cause I was in bryan last night laughing at the little measly storm that blew through.

Talked to my boss today and I'm not gonna be able to make this meet. We start working weekends that week so there's no way I can swing it. Oh well. Such as life.

 

Pulled the diff plugs... No milky white stuff...
Front end looked brand spankin new. Could bottle it and sell it new
Rear end... ehh pretty dark...

 

What weight you running in the rear? Synthetic?

 

Nope pretty sure dyno

 

I recommend an 80w-140 for anyone towing heavy.... or playing hard. Actually... for anyone, period....running a high torque diesel in Southern climates.

I also prefer Synthetics.

Ya would be nice for the rear... The front doesn't see much stress so I really see no point up there...

Maybe change the fluid while doing your clutches with Dan??

 

That's what I'm thinking.

 

Yall should feel special. This is my 12,000th post on the DTR.

 

I'm afraid to go out to the shop and peel that pallet of 16ga off of the '98's grill.

Those bars are watertight, baby... ASME welds stem to stern and wash-down grease on the heim threads for a hermetic seal!

Do we need to reserve a camping/RV spot? I guess Robert's bringing the WW... although it probably won't matter - we're likely to spend half the night repairing the carnage on someone's truck from Friday night's Ram-page at the track!

 

I wonder if you'll be muted when you get close to 6 figures?
