When I ordered my D35 Aussie, they actually sent me printed directions from a forum online..which were A LOT better than that book Aussie sends you.

speaking of that... I really gotta start working on my b2. dang school.

i need to start working too, but it's been so damn hot lately and more heat is coming. i can only work so long wearing long pants, boots, gloves and my welding jacket. no shade in front of the garage either. supposed to be in the 100's today, friday, sat, sun and mon. get's down into the 80's next tuesday though. so that'll be nice.

it's just as hot here in NW Missippi... only dryer. it sucks.

It's the same here. You just don't want to go outside and kill yourself in the heat.

it's about to come down here, it might be cool enough to do some work tonight if it isnt too humid out.

92 Degrees 18% humidity. This weekend going to be in the high 70s. Forecasting low 80s all next week thank goodness cause I am done with the 100s and high 90s. Mid 80s Tomorrow great weather to wheel can't wait to hit Eagle Rock should be fun.

was able to do some stuff tonight

figured i'd recycle the old shock mounts from the factory coil buckets. didnt take any time to throw them together

gonna have to extend them with some plate i think and then cut the plastic fenderwell.

ground down the coil retainers and installed the bumpstops, just need to tack them in.

Should have said something to about the pitman arm sooner I could have thrown my spare in the box.

 

[88_Eddie]

i know, i thought about that when i got the package. the one i got was only $23 at rock auto.

finally got my arm metal today. finally have a good metal guy to use. and he's not too far from the house. i might get the thing under the truck tomorrow!!

 

[88_Eddie]

doesnt look like i'll be doing any work today, thermometer says it's 102 out. i was doing some side work earlier for my boss and i felt like i was gonna pass out. i've never had heat exhaustion before, but i think i was in the early stages. i drank a bunch of water too, dont know how it happened.

supposed to be in the 80's this week though, so i should be able to get a lot done after work.

 

[dangerranger83]

For me, theres going to be about the mid 80's starting tomorrow and wednesday being the last nice day so those will be my few days of getting stuff I need t get done.

arm #1: check

arm #2atiently waiting his turn

the tube adapters dont fit, so i have to grind them down a tad to get them to go in. got too late to be grinding anymore, i dont wanna piss off the neighbors.

got the f150 arm and my steering box seal kit yesterday

contemplating taking the box to work tomorrow and replacing the seals lol
