    In town or at the track? If you're coming to the track, I'm gonna be set up at turn 3, right off the road by gate 4 from Thursday afternoon through Sunday. Shouldn't have any trouble spotting my truck! Give me a shout. If I'm not watching racing I'll be drinking beers at the campsite. Same goes for anyone else who may be at the track!

    Reminds me of my 4 hour fluid change/grease job this morning. :anonymous:

    Side note: the grease gun I bought yesterday might already be due for a replacement. :smash:

    No, some cheap Walmart shit. :anonymous:

    I'll try my best to make this cheap thing work, but I am pretty tempted to get one of the Milwaukee ones.

    For the amount of greasing you do just get a nice pistal grip gun with a rubber hose grease end.

    Aww yeah, congrats! Hope all your stuff in the fridge/freezer are OK.
    I feel personally attacked lol.
    ^^ This. I didn't learn my lesson until recently with buying cheap AutoZone grade units. They have almost all shit the bed now. Bought a Lincoln Industrial #1133 at the local Bumper to Bumper at nearly 2.5 times the cost and it is hands down the best one I've ever owned. Buy once cry once.

    There's even less when you're sitting on the frame. That's why you want flotation for deep mud and snow.

    I doubt that would work for folks who wheel in 2-3' of snow or more. ;)

    If you decide to lift your your truck I have a pair of 1 year old Dobinsons 314 coil springs. I am willing to offer you these at a price that is to good to turn down. I'm sure others here might have items that you could use.
