    Looks good man. Your front wheels seem super pushed forward. Gonna have to trim that bummer for sure if you off road. And the fenders

    Thanks bud, idk what you mean by the wheels look pushed forward, but the wheels are turned to the right a little so it might seem that way. yea gonna need some trim work when i go wheeling.

    The lift im running is king(Bilstien) 5150's and a three inch body lift.

    Ahhh body lift. Well you wont have to trim the firewall and that's why your not rubbing on. The pinch weld.

    And it just looks like whoever did your last alignment pushed them all the way forward. Not a bad thing

    PORC if you have time to wait and can deal with bullshit. But i would recomend getting the nitro big pinion rear gears instead of the older small one.

    What did I do today. Well, I finished cutting a rusted tow hitch out of the receiver and grinding the rest of the big rust deposits out.

    Never heard of Foss's. OneSteel is a scrap metal recycling chain company- I think they now go by 'Arrium.' They have locations in Maine, Florida, Virginia, (mine) and I think a few other states. I take my scrap to them. The only thing I don't like about them is that they don't take circuit boards. Gutterman's down the street from me does, though.
    The only time my scrap van bottoms out is when it's got a full load of Sunday newspapers. (I also do a newspaper route.) Each Sunday Paper weighs like two or three pounds, and we deliver over a thousand, so... lol.

    Has anyone had their check engine light come on before and after fueling up??

    It's weird, I will get down to almost a 1/4 tank and the light will come on. It usually stays on until the next time I fuel up. I'll fill up and drive home--and the light stays on. Then the next time I start up, the light is usually off. :confused:

    I don't think it's the gas cap. I don't know-- just annoying seeing that light turn on and off...

    GOOD NEWS: New wheels and tires soon!

    Actually it seems like the cap to me. They have an internal vent system built in and my guess is it's not venting correctly and causing a code to be thrown. Then you fuel up and change the pressure in the tank and the light goes out. I'm just shotgunning here though.

    Not necessarily. Every truck is different.
