Hmmmmm, On the same day in history, a patriot declared his opposition to oppressive government, and a psychopathic killer took over one.
On this day, the American people are screaming for their liberty, and Der bo bo is going to sign legislation to take it away.

Okay all you truck modifiers...
Need to start thinking about a fuel pressure gauge. Was looking through the store and saw the A column and the steering column type. One question, on my truck is there gonna be a line coming into the cab with fuel in it??? Seems kinda dangerous. but I am un-edjumakated on the whole thing.
Any suggestions, keep in mind I am not as rich as Blake and he simply refuses to work on my truck!!!
So I have to go at it alone.

Mornin.
Wyo, don't sweat the fuel running in the cab, I have been doing it for years. Diesel is not volatile. If you were to get a leak, just shut the key off. Just get a good line, like copper. I got my line from car quest...
Hope your morning is going as good as mine...

Rick I did brakes on an 04 dodge last year that were ground so bad that on one rotor the pad backing plate ground into the cooling fins in the center of the rotor. The truck had orangish specs all down the side of it, the orange specs were grinding that got stuck in the paint and rusted. The truck we driven by two high school girls most of the time, their father and mother didn't know what was making so much noise in the front. I don't have pics, I was too much in awe when I saw how bad the brakes were worn!
Self installed flaming metal flake paint.
I just got off the radio with a buddy who's father operated a garage and he owned a towing business. He was telling me the local Firestone store used to replace the caliper's on every car they did brakes on. He was in the parts store one day when the driver from the Firestone came in to pick up brake parts. The counter guy said to the driver something like "I appreciate all the business but why do you replace the calipers with every set of pads?" The reply was because when they put the new pads on the car, they won't fit between the old caliper and the rotor.
They'll make a movie about it too, Rambo, the silver years.
Oh no, you won't drag me into this one.

Yep.

I did, my father.
I'm in.


Morning all.
