    I'm getting very frustrated with the condition of my truck... I've got a few 1st gen grills to work on this weekend but I'm hoping it drys out a bit so I can try to swap out the broken axle shaft. I jump started it today and took it for a spin around the block. The steering is all over the place. :(
    I'm going to try to get the inspection done this coming week - I found a shop in Oxford Valley that is kind to modded trucks.
    After that I'll hit up my guys at NTB for alignment & see if that helps the handling any.
    There are a few other things I really need to get done to make the trip out west and I'm running short on time. :annoyed:

    What shop? Also quick unrelated question to the question I asked the other day... After you apply the clear coat you gotta polish it right? Do you have a special buffer for that?

    Low cost exhaust. They did my re-route and extended out from where I did the dump after the axle for like $120. Nice guys & they do a ton for my father in laws place.
    I've got a 3" CAMPBELL Hausfield pistol grip buffer I use - the polish I get from my body shop guy. I know it's 3M but I don't have any other details than that. Sorry! :oops:

    Hate to be a bother but could I borrow it from you when it's time to final buff my tailgate? I'll buy my own polish/pads just don't want to drop $80 on a tool I don't think I'll use again. If not no worries dude. :thumbsup:
