    That old house looks pretty beat up now, but I bet when you are finished it will stnd for another 200 years.

    Got the camera batteries charged up and took a couple of new pictures of the truck.

    For you more experienced mechanics... is one gear lube brand better than another? Or are they pretty much all the same? :eek:

    Parents want to buy my sister a pickup like mine (or close to it) and are looking to pay 26k for an 09 Taco with 45,000 miles on it... I am in love with my SWB taco, but I have found this truck. I told them they were nuts to buy my sister a $25k+ vehicle to drive around in HS. They have agreed to let me part out my truck to put all of my parts on this new one, and then give me what my truck would be worth stock... Or close to it (I would likely leave my exhaust and stuff on). And I would have to fix the susp (replace with billy 5100s etc). My truck is quite nearly paid off so this would be a decent size loan, but nothing huge for a truck that is pretty much decked out minus the stuff I already own and would be putting on it anyway. Shit, I dunno

    We're pretty much always here. You always have someone that's (mostly) unbiased to talk to in the garage

    You don't need an invitation to drop in Brock. Take care of yourself.

    No, the suspension on my current truck is FUCKED, so I really need to get that fixed whether I continue to drive it or someone else in family does.

    I'm sorry, I meant springs!!! Let's just say the front left drops into a hole with a little bit of speed. The truck doesn't get settled again up there for quite a while.
