    For a second I thought you were there when I did that to an old 5-ton. I did the exact same thing right into a tank trap lol

    "SSgt. we're going to be a little delayed. Had a minor issue with the winch on my 7-ton. Yep, definitely the maintainers fault."

    Got the internal slave from ClutchMasters and the FJ stuff to delete the ADD. Flywheel and clutch should arrive in the next day or two. Taco box? Whenever ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I have been thinking about hood swapping. Then I thought what if I get a different color? I'd have to paint it. Then I was like nah, fuck that, I'd rather Monstaliner my whole truck if I'm going to do that. Then all the color options came up. So I'm exploring that now. Here's the full color lineup they offer, I'm open to suggestions! I'd prefer a non, factory-ish color, other than white.

    Oh, I would also spray it on so there would be minimal texture, if any. I don't want it to look like bed liner.

    Fuck these broken ribs :mad:

    Can't get anything done with them. I started working on the clutch, flywheel, and slave and it was about the time I was thinking about something to grit my teeth on while pulling the rear driveshaft that I realized this is the easy part.

    I just quit. I finished changing the oil now I guess I'll clean up the garage and start drinking.

    cheers...
