    good way to start the week!!!!!

    So its been raining for like 3 day now and apparently "Gremlins" thought it would be a good idea to do some handy work on my back glass Monday night /morning. I get out of work about 7ish that morning run to my truck (cause its still raining cats and small children outside) jump in my truck and squish into the seat literally. My first thought was WTF!!!, now i have a wet ass and back and 20min ride to the house. I start looking around trying to figure out how the majority of the rain that fell ended up inside the cab of my truck when I notice the very back corner of my headliner is driping water like an old faucet. I managed to trace it down to the seal at the top of the back glass so that should be a fun fix. So now its three days later, still raining, and my interiors still soaked. I feel like i'm riding around in some old P.O.S. sitting on a stack on old towels to keep my ass dry. On another unhappy side note, thanks to all the rain my clutch has started slipping, but it was on its way to the trash bin anyways.

    Anyway figured I would share my mishap with the guys

    Wow, so the top of the rear window seal just decided to take a crap on you--or wait, should I dare say--take a piss on you?? LOL. Just be happy it was a window seal and it wasn't some jackass breaking into you truck and steal stuff...
    Any ideas on what type of clutch you might go with???

    Yeah, thank god it was just a freak incident I can't even imagine how postal i would be if someone tryed to break into my truck. Hopefully I can get it fixed somehow this weekend while i'm off work.

    As far as the clutch issue I was thinking a Spec 2-3 depending on what kind money i can scrap up. My wallet is feeling the pain of purchasing my girlfriend a new car earlier this month. At least she can't say anything about me spending money on my truck now . I'm also going to replace my u-joints and some other misc. crap while i'm at it. It should be a fun weekend of wrenching & beer drinkin

    Yeah no kidding, I'm fixing the leak Sat. Luckily the trucks dried out and it hasn't developed any strange smells so far. I'm not terribly concerned about the clutch right now as long as keep my foot out of it.
