I see that you are taking her to Twin Peaks Diesel. Do the technician wear those short blue jeans and the tied up flannel shorts? LOL I couldn't help myself Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

Maybe you're putting them on upside down

I mean, if you tried 3, it has to be on their end.

I mean it is his fault that they’re not ready I’m sure! They’ve known we needed a good option since 2005……Maybe I’ll just say screw it and run drive flanges!

Go bug Neal and Brian when you're down there and get some swag.
And that’s the thing about swaps. Always a ton of time effort and money to get all the one off stuff figured out. Cough-cough. Listening big D? Duramax that burb. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
From what I always hear is just get a doner vehicle when you do a swap. You are SURE you have all the parts that way.Now for a Dmax being electronic it may not be as bad but not speaking from experience ither.
Interesting. I don't remember you mentioning how much those factory brackets were worth when I was willing to take them off of my motors!
Hold your powder Don. Find an 01-02 truck with lower mileage that’s been totaled and you have everything you need. With a mild tune on stock parts you have 400 hp and 600+ ft-lbs.Lots of labor on your part but its really plug and play. Except I would regear to 3.73 or 4:10 with a 6 speed conversion.Don’t get discouraged, you have one of the nicest burbs in the country. With the money you’ll get from the motor and trans you’ll be nearly even.Unless you stick that in the pre ranger’s truck…Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
