Bled the brakes, greased the chassis, and jump started it to get it cranked for the first time in 2 weeks. Got an alignment scheduled Wednesday but I'm scared to drive it. It'll go in a straight line but its WAY out of spec. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

hmmm you had to jump start it after it sitting for 2 weeks? I had my truck on stands for 3 months about 2 years ago, throughout the winter, and I replaced my plugs and wires (they were do) when I went to start it up and it fired right on up. Then again, I only had my battery in there for a year before it started sitting

I was stuck behind a straight piped Volvo 240 Estate diesel. Sounded awful

Left the truck at the airport. Flew to NH and got a brand new Suburban for my rental. It's black and with that 3rd row come Monday I can take my entire department out on our lunch break and play FBI. :lol:

Took the truck to the field to do a little duck hunting and also snagged a few geese.IMG_20130925_135932_zpsd1fc2fd8.jpg

Still working on this damn lift. Finally got the front done. Just need to get off early tomorrow to install the new rear differential and AAL and maybe blocks depending on how it sets

Driver side with tire. Its still stands so it will sit a little lower but hopefully not by too much

Just bought 4 Goodyear Eagle GT's and they will be here on wednesday. I ordered them 5 minutes ago. Its nice to have overnight shipping and only pay for standard.

I've never worked on a vehicle lift so I wouldn't know the difference. But I have done so much on these set of stands that km used to it. I've pulled 3 trannies with these. Plus the body lift helps

long time I drive. Thank god my truck is safe and me also. :)
