Back on it in the morning. Going to get it ready for transport. Tow it home and finish it up here. If I can test start at the shop I will. After the trans and oil filters and fluid changes I don't need the shop or lift anymore plus I can work on my own schedule here and I have my tools!!
Got allot done today. Days not over yet!
Wrapped up just about everything at the shop. Changed the oil and threw a few quarts of fluid in the trans.
It's on the tow truck on its way home and I will meet it there shortly. Should be able to fire it up later tonight or tomorrow. Will try and wrap up wiring tonight.
Update later. Picking up my kids from school right now, will put them to work cleaning the truck! ;)
the Very last time (I hope) my rig should ever be on this rig!
got her back home today.

when I got it home, I plugged in all the electrical connectors and started tying down and placing wires and components under the hood..
I'm pretty close to having under the hood done, just need to go pick up new radiator hoses, the two I have fit, but I want new.
I think for the exhaust I am going to make a Y-pipe to fix this,https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-_...o/IMG_2199.JPG run two into one for now, will do dual down the road. that's me old pipe running back to flowmaster 50 and then dual from there back.
I got allot of business to handle over the next few days, but I will try and get a little work done tomorrow night, maybe fire it up.
I did turn it over by just the starter to get some of the new oil running through the system..
after those last few things, on to wiring the 95 dash and 05 cluster..
stay tuned!
