haha rob's going to see my truck tomorrow, im sure he'll get a laugh out of it.
before it rained i had drawn my horsepower stickers in the dirt that was on the body lol.
i just swapped out my 285/75R16 (31x11.5 tires) for some 245/75R16's cause a tall thin tire is better in the snow.

ohh..well i do have the 5 lights on the roof like a real trucker....those are mad toight right?
but seriously i hit a full size tree that was blocking the road a week or so ago. it was funny cause i saw a car in my lane stopped sitting at this tree i guess hoping it would fly off the road, and saw no one coming the other direction.
so i sped up a bit, swerved hit the tree and sent it flying down the hill (over the guardrail of the road)
the look on the guy in the cars face was priceless.
i want a train horn.

I had a 88 chevy K1500 and a day before I sold it I busted the hard line that goes to the rear brakes. I just ran a new one and left the old **** in there, hell if I was going to drop the gas tank to remove that old rusty tetanus tube!

On another note, I have developed a rather large *clunk* in the front end, whenever I hit a small crack or bump in the road. Longer sweeping bumps did not cause the sound. After two weeks of searching, tonight I was laying under there and noticed that when I rocked the wheel on the passenger side, the driver's side axle would deflect up and down at the differential. So I shoved a pry bar in there and sure enough, the axle was moving vertically at the diff!
