    The latter, I gotta get up there. Working out of town a lot lately doesn't help. Going to be gone all next week again too.

    Would be nice. I have a lot of little BS things on the truck I'd really like to get done before it goes into storage.

    Off the top of my head

    -I still have the front passenger upper shock mount to install :anonymous:
    -Finish the QD bedsides
    -Finish internal cab structure, gussting, and speed holes
    -Install firewall and cab panels
    -Weld up an aluminum tranny hump
    -Front bumper
    -Clean up the inside of the axles and install new bearings/seals
    -Finish up the boatsides, minus the UHMW
    -Fuel cell mounts

    Welds are finally consistently halfway decent :rolleyes:

    Finally got around to completely disassembling the 14's hubs to see what needed to be replaced. Glad I did because the races looked pretty f*#^ed up. I ordered some Timken replacements and coincidentally (I think?) the bearings for the '01 Chevy 14B are the exact same bearings as those for the front '78 Ford D60.

    Picked up a parts washer. I was a little OCD about cleaning firearms when I was on a shooting team and I think it carried over :eek:

    I've pretty much resigned myself to the idea that I'm gonna skip the BS and go straight for a 2JZ swap. Took measurements last night. Doable. :anonymous:

    It didn't help that I upgraded my over-thinking chair.

    Why the hell would you get a 2jzge instead of a 2jzgte..i assure you he is getting the gte :cool:

    id take a 3uz of a 2uz. But the 2uz is a big motor. 2jz will be easier..and makes cooler nosies :D and plenty of power and torque

    also i have said this like 3 times i think..but i love your sig :D haha
