I don't know if it's my phone or connection, but the links just show a photo, no video. Anyone else experience this?

Mine shows the first frame of the video then when you tap it it plays.

I think it was my data not being quick enough this morning. It worked this time. Thanks.

I love it. Sounds surprisingly good, especially with that plumbing.

I plan to cut the pipe down to whatever the tallest it can be and still have a functioning hood with an only a 3” hole. I’d rather not do a bolt on hood stack…but I may.

Probably a stupid question, but why not go down?

Because it's not as cool.

Got the bed yoinked off.

Set it aside

Put the front drop hangers on. I tried like hell to free up the bolts so I could reuse the bushings....but in the end...I cut the bolts and punched the bushings out. Exactly why I stopped trying to mess around doing them with the bed on a few months ago.

New bushings should show up today, so I can get the springs bolted back in for good and swap the axle tonight.

Mocked it up with no bushings so it will sit a hair higher than this, but the bed will probably squat it down a bit...I may end up needing to lower the front more.

Quick RockAuto research says I'll need a different RH parking brake cable for the 10" brakes.

Also weather report: Frosty and froggy morning here with temps climbing towards the 50s.
