I have two 50 gallon RV tanks I was going to use, but shipping would be a killer.

Fastenal?

Yep, just stick with the 5.3. The 6.0 way over priced and hit from the rear could mean the driveshaft got pushed into the tcase.

So may parts for all the LS motors and a stand alone harness is easy to find.

More storage is always nice. To bad about the damage.

Sure the truck doesn't care about the pin with just that trailer but it does looks better.

AR would be much better I bet.

Wasn't that long ago everyone around there was wishing for some rain. Kind of nice to drive along lake Shasta and see lake instead of small river.

You talking about 4-5 years ago? Been pretty good the last few years and they want to raise it. I hear Oroville is having issues again!

How bad are the taxes going up when it sells?

Hopefully none. No state or fed inheritance unless it is like 5mil or so, plus it was an estate and I have letter saying it is tax exempt. There was an annuity but it shouldn't be an issue until next year since everything was issued this year.

You'll be OK Tex, just don't push it, but don't lay around to much either.

Doing the last of the DR on moms house. 2' of a 16' beam was rotted out and no real good way to scarf it out as it over hung, so I did the whole beam. Was under $40. Old beam was redwood and only held in finish screws. A few 2x4 to hold it up and came out easy when cut to 48" pieces. Primed with Kiltz and when finish paint when installed.

If I recall, the rails are the same with just the xmembers being the diff. I would replace with bolts and box the frame. Did that on a shortned 77.

JR, buy twice as much as you need near Lake Tahoe, low down with small payments. Hold it for a couple years, sell off half and you can pay off the whole package.

Something to ponder. Found several lots for between 100-150, so a DP is all it would take.

We shall see, I close in 2 weeks and just have a little dry rot to address and a good cleaning. Then its a waiting game since here they can walk away with 3 days to go.

Yep, need driving distance for now, 3 hours or so. Gives options of day trips or long work weekends/weeks.

I would look in Az, NM even as far as Tx if I could.

Nice jack stands! Not even webbing on the 80, just big and thick.

Do the wheels fit on the lugs? If the 14x1.5 are good enough for our Dmax, they should be fine for this. Restud.

SS tip would look nice or contour it.

JR, Dave said he has 63 acres.. don't think neighbors are an issue.
That's a good chunk of land for sure.

Love something that big. I keep looking but coming up short on what I want. Even in Ca and Or plots I like are great looking, forested and rolling landscape. In Nv for the same price it is just flat dirt!

Over at moms house, close to being done.

Just did a drop off at a local "donation center". Places are picky now about what you give them, then leave it in the rain.

I was referring to the pumpkin, not the axles. Heck I would haul that out and get it blasted.

Diodes? Do tell, I have the steps for my max, lift should be here Monday.

Any skid plates going on? I def want one under my Tcase on the max, it hangs out!

Was at moms house late last night, slept in a little today.

Norm lately is I unload the truck with stuff from moms house, then grad a little thing or 2 and head back over.

Battery is the dead on the Dmax,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, It had sounded like it was turning over slower the last week or so. Glad it didn't happen when I was looking at property.

Batteries are 3y7m old, warranty is 3y6y and they don't prorate anymore, so I have to pay full price. So much for interstate battery quality as I just had to replace the wifes battery too. On that I had to pay for the price diff of the new vs the old batter.! So much for free replacement warranty from Costco.

Plan now is to replace them at 3y5m old and sending a complaint to costco.

LOL JR, I might.  one month out of the week when they are all "in sync".  Either there or the shipping container....

I hope that while the knee is healing I can be building the cabinet doors.  Once the shower is done, its just paint in the bath, install the toilet and trim and hook up the drain and supply plumbing.

Plumbing while the knee heals? Cabinets I can see.

Working on moms house. Have to have it done by the end of the month final. Closes on the 5th.

Put 4 pieces out for free, gone in 3 hours.

Having to put grounded plugs through out. Wire is there, just not hooked up in 55. Only GFCI was in the bathroom, had to add 2 by the kitchen sink, 1 to washer.

Move washer/dryer outlets to other side of the wall along with the water. Tub was pretty easy with the sharkbit fittings. Trap is still on the other side of the wall. All the lines had been run through holes in the wall, hense the wood.

You can get drop in triggers for under $100 that are nice.

Have you checked the trigger for reset yet? It will seem to function normal but if you miss that little spring under the hammer you could get multiple dischargers. Just an FYI is all as it does happen.
