I was on 23 merging on to 94 when my truck decided it wanted to hydroplane and hit the side of a bridge.

"rebuilt"

Black primer

4x4 trans and other goodies.
I drove down to escort_gts's house to finish my 4x4 swap.

LED dome lights.

Today's project, I also scraped a crapload of mud out from under my truck and cleaned the inside.

6$ ORV flag "quick disconnect". I went to lowes and bought a kobalt air fitting kit.
