    Right now I'm a service coordinator/apprentice tech at Discount Tire.

    But I'm starting to look into getting a second job or doing something else entirely.

    I was thinking about it, but then I realized my truck wouldn't be an ideal place to live :eek:

    I know the housing market sucks out there. My cousin's working in Odessa and is living out of a motel for two weeks. Then he's on his own.

    Looks good, Keith. You should put a couple of bunk beds in the garage and rent them out $100 a week. Four bunk beds would pay half my house payment.

    so, i'm considering cutting off the ifs on my colorado and putting on a solid axle and doing soa in the rear.
    any of yall know a good shop that can shorten axles? around austin or dfw would be good.

    this guy is using 77 k5 axles
    http://www.355nation.net/forum/projects-build/35312-big-red-2.html

    he left his axles full width which i'd have to do fiberglass fenders to somewhat cover the tires.

    here is another

    just something i'm really thinking about.
    i bought the truck for 2k used last october, 156k miles (158k now), 4banger auto 4x4 regular cab. done a bit of work to get it working right.
    but found the driverside lca mount has 2 areas that need welded up before driving, or just cut all off and do sas.
