    Looks to be only a touch over an hr actually, not bad at all. Hopefully the new tires give me the advertised extra horsepower, if so I can be there even sooner. :thumbsup:

    I might be getting ready for a color change so I'm trying to keep her clean for a little while, lol

    Hopefully mounting tires today. HUGE job is an understatement. 38 bolts a tire, all torqued against rubber. Tighten one, both on either side are now loose. Tighten next bolt, same thing, just keep torquing them all again and again til they're good. Getting all new wheel bearings for the front axle today, hooping to start putting it back together tonight too. Then it just has to go back in the truck!

    I'm not sweating it, that's a short list. On another note, I found an old video I never posted hiding in the nether regions of my 'puter:

    Go back in time and air those tars down!! Those sidewalls aren't that stiff, and that heavy battleship you drive should be compressing that tire more:luvya:

    So I'm moving up to Northwestern Indiana sometime next month. Anybody have recommendations for towns/places to live that are a reasonable drive to Lowell?

    I would just as soon live out of town but a part of the compromise with the girlfriend moving with is that we live in a town...looking at Valpo right now.

    I ended up getting a place just south of Valpo. She wanted to be near Valpo, I needed something close to Lowell and I wasn't ready to buy so we were limited to an apartment/townhome. Ended up with a nice little townhome with an attached 1.5 car garage. Going to seem like a palace compared to my one car detached unit now :D
