    I will say that I enjoyed meeting young Achidro. He's the average age of my children, but he did a fine job. If you need some welding done, give the man a call. There is clearly a CMC in my future, and I'm picturing a bracket for some more LED's.

    I wanted to set them at 1.75", but decided on 0.85 cause I had a hard time compressing the coils. I checked my notes and they are set at 0.85, not 1.75 like I originally thought.

    Just look at the build thread
    It's cheap to make diesels put out big numbers. Getting them to handle the power without catastrophic failure, however, is not cheap.

    Passed a Cummins Dually on the way home that had a 940 in the rear window. It had an exhaust pipe with an opening that would fit basketball.

    I remember the days when people had Diesel trucks, and actually used them to pull big loads.

    Just hooked up surround sound in my house. I got a front speaker, and two rears from my girlfriends dad, I had two fronts from my home stereo, and I bought a super nice expensive Yamaha rx-v559 receiver used for $50. And the house was already pre-wired for the rears. All I get to get was $50 in wiring and the receiver.

    Well I was rear ended again in my truck. The first time I had only had it a few weeks. This time I am 3-4 payments from paid off. The Chevy Silverado bumper is a joke. I was sitting still and she slammed into me hard enough to set off my ABS.
