Well I got the NV 5600 in the red 06 now!!! There was a few things different and the starter on the 06 is 5/8 longer and had to remove that so I had to put the starter on the 04 on it and other than that the stick and everything else works great and I am leaving PA right now on my way to Oklahoma

 

So besides the races on the 25th at Redline, are there any other GTG's planned anytime soon? Doesnt look like I will get to make it as bad as I want to. Have to be at a wedding in Denton at 6 and dont know when I will be done there.

 

Well got the Blue truck dropped off in Oklahoma and didn't get to leave PA till 6:30 pm on friday night but made it back to PA now and got a lil time to spare for class this morning at 7 am!

 

Congrats on making it back so quick and in one piece. Bet you didn't get a lot of sleep this weekend!! Hope you get your truck back together soon too. And don't forget we need to see some pics of the carnage.

That was some serious traveling....especially with a trailer. What's one way...about 1100 miles?
R.T. in under 32 hrs is impressive! Better you than me.
Glad you made it.

Matt's having a run of bad luck - the '06 crashed a few miles away from home this morning.

 

Ouch...sometimes no luck is better than any at all.

Is he doing OK?

 

Bummer deal!

 

the truck broke? or he literally had a wreck?

seems there is some bad mojo just floating around. .


on a lighter note:

did ya'll hear about the blonde that heard that 90% of accidents happen within two miles of home......... Ya, She moved. . .

 

Oh man!! That sux!! Is Matt Ok? Do you know any details?

..

 

Ya my luck is not going to good it looks like but the truck is not in to bad of shape just a front bumper and maybe a fender! Things just keep getting worse but with all this bad luck all of a sudden things have to start getting better, but I am ok tho just a wreck in a con zone! Is what happen is traffic stopped right in front of us and there was a lot of loose gravel on the highway and there was no stopping for us and hit a mini van but I had one person with me and je got no ticket but I am not sure what our insurrance companys are going to do! BTW RowJ ya the trip is 1300 miles and it wasn't bad we got to Ok at noon saturday and didn't leave till noon on sunday so I had plenty of time to spend with familly, I would have made it to school on time if it wasn't for the wreck! Well I will work on yall some pics of the carnage and tranny pics as well

 

Brian I almost cracked up laughing when you answered your phone and asked what I dropped in the engine this time.
Oh and thanks again for the answers last night Mike. Still might need an explanation again on injector removal though.

 

Finally (after 6 yrs) broke down and bgt a hard copy of the Field Service Manual!
Been dealing with pages copied of my disk version ($19.95). Works great for keeping original clean , but not really easy to find exactly what you want when you need it.
Bgt 'great' condition copy from a dealership that went out of business.....$70.00 w/ shipping!
These books are amazing....... and a fun read too!!
(I know, I'll say it before anyone else...."need to get a life, RJ").

 

I want to compare my 2nd Gen FSM set (3 books) and see how close they are.

 

This book is yr specific...2002, 2500 & 3500 only. Covers 2wd & 4wd; is over 1000 pages!
Will bring it to 'The Ranch'
