Looks like a mike came with the siren, if so don't get caught telling of all the stupid-ass, slow, using the fast lane when they shouldn't, tailgating, idiot drivers where to go and how to get there!!!!
I sure would like one but would probably be paying way to much in fines to make it worth while.

I don't know about your laws but where I live it's a $150 fine for "disrupting public peace" I believe is how the officer worded it hahah

seems like the rear suspension cycles a lot better now with those new springs.
at least it seems that way from the video you posted before with that shot of the rear end

Thanks guys, yeah I am really happy with the way the rear handles now. I think it will handle better though with a little more weight back there.

Nathan- Get it done and come down for Huckfest lol

Dude this is a crazy sick build. It was very cool see not only the truck evolve but your skills evolve as well. Read thru all 62 pages in one sitting last night, didn't happen to catch the size and stroke of your front sway aways. I need some for mine and yours seem to be working really well

Got her running again, changed the trans filter and checked it out the best I could. Fixed the output shaft seal and it's good to go. Also cleaned it up from pismo finally.



And mounted the siren.
