    That's a lot of stress on some old (HD44/D60?) axles.
    I think it's OE stuff in the 44 front....I'll be putting a Dana 60 with disc in the rear after much of the other stuff is done. Sure would be nice to get a 60 for the front though. Guy at work smashed up his '02 F250 a few years back and I tried to buy it from him...no joy at the time. I'll most likely have to be doing some gear changes when it's getting closer to being finished, so I expect if I have the 44 still, I'll get new shit for that as well.

    Oh well, I want it right when it's done, so.... something's gonna happen.

    Holding the "steer" isn't alignment. I have no idea what vehicle you're driving, but racks, gears, ball joints and even steering column bearings and connecting shafts can all get "sticky" and cause your hold problem.

    The dude at the shop that is rebuilding my turbo was "sick today". I doubt I'll get my stuff back tomorrow, which blows my plans all to hell for tomorrow.

    Setbacks and delays.

    I can't get the cooling system filled and stabilized obviously, but I can get the stuff mounted and plumbed I suppose.

    Don't think he could actually be sick? Nasty sinus/chest cold thing going around right now, I've still got it after a week.

    No, Hurley.

    He might be sick...and I'm sorry if he is and I hope he gets better for his sake.

    I think if you point your super high intellect examining what my post said exactly, you might find that I simply disclosed that my plans for getting my truck running this weekend are no longer a possibility, and I managed to find another part of my truck to work on.

    Thank you...

    ….eh, that wasn't fair, Hurley.

    Just start with the "what my post said exactly part".

    Sorry, not trying to be a dick.

    I'm not trying to get it into an out of state show by a certain deadline.....but I do have some time constraints that might be in play that I have to be worried about.

    No worries, I had a smart ass reply that I was about to post, but refrained because you seem like a solid dude.

    Learned a new word today down in balmy central AZ

    Hickspanic, that's right Hickspanic.

    One of the delivery guys kept saying Y'all. Y'all this, Y'all that. Even stevie wonder could see he was of a rich hispanic origin.

    So i ask what's this Y'all stuff ? You from the down south, like Nogales. Look it up all you geography challenged folk.

    Well he says my dads mexican (Surprise) and my mom's a kentucky girl. As he takes another pull of chew.
