    The arms look pretty adjustable on the link you posted, it looks like a pretty decent step up from what I've been using lol

    I got the leak in the middle of the crawl box fixed. It's the leak between the trans and the crawl box. It's always been the worst one. Fixing a leak from the outside seems nearly impossible. It's slowing, as far as I can tell. Definitely better than it was.

    Well, I worked on the leak until 2 or 3 in the morning before I pushed it back out onto the driveway...

    It's got a slow weep from about halfway up. It hasn't made it to the bottom of the box yet though. I can live with that. That said, I'm going to try to fix that one too.

    With it in the end!

    Tell me about it! I stood next to my truck for like a minute getting myself all Zen in preparation for the worst.

    If it stays like this for a week, I'll breathe a huge sigh of relief. I'm so ready to put my stupid skid plates back on lol

    It is done!

    I didn't see a drop from overnight or throughout the day. Earlier I wiped off the little weep and it hasn't come back. I went ahead and added one more later or sealant over it just for funsies. I'm really hoping that's the last of it and I can put that literal mess behind me.

    Going swell just waiting for things to pick up here at work. I read about your wife’s wrist that’s terrible hope she heals quickly.

    Sounds like things are trying to go back to normal. It's going to be an interesting fall/winter this year.

    Yeah, us too. She was pretty dorky about it this morning. lol I had to help her do everything!

    She's being a good sport about it. Pretending to be helpless so I have to do everything for her.
