What did YOU do today?

Cleaned out the chicken house, moving the new birds over there tonight. Filled 11 5 gallon buckets for possible sale later, I can get free empty buckets at work and last spring a egg customer requested a couple of buckets of the “other” chicken product so I figured why not try & market that? Im calling it fair in a bucket fir, cause thats what it will remind you of when the lid is popped off. Selling for $5/bucket. we will see if that works out. Gator did pretty good i. the yard now that we are down to just a couple inches of snow.

I've had a cold all week annoyingly but I'm almost clear now... it's put a damper on my enthusiasm...

Tonight so far I've torn into the camper jack that was lazy and cranky, turns out the top plate was warped and the motor was in a bind the whole time and got mad sometimes, all the gears are in good shape and straightened things out so hopefully it will be less cranky, there's a clutch on one of the last stages so that's why it did some of the things it did... I'm less afraid of it now at least.

Next step is to put on the other two trim pieces then seal around everything then put the jack back on, then the camper can get out of the shop... once my brother brings the F350 back at least...

Sold the 97 wrangler. Amd am anxiously awaiting the harness adapter from f150leds to hook up the grill lights on the 24 ranger.


I am also supposed to do the swap on my FIL 25 ranger, if his letters get here today

Went & looked at a ranger. White ‘99 supercab 4x4, 3.0/auto. 4.10’s front hubs have been upgraded to manual. not too rusty, Id be more worried about the transmission than anything with 190K on it. $1600. drivers door has been changed, has a ‘97 sticker on it but correct tag for truck is on the doorjamb. Might drive it, not crazy about white but thats easy enough to change.

Dad has something like 230k on his 99 automatic. It could benefit from a shift kit and band adjustment but otherwise it seems pretty solid. Of course, my green 00 puked the trans at like 165k. I did a shift kit and valve body work to my 92 with 176k and that thing became an animal up until someone decided I was having too much fun and smashed into it. So there’s some hit and miss to the autos.
