  4. Watching Grimm on TV...and An Arrival Blue SS was the bad guys ride. I was happy.

  5. It took away from the Pace Truck build, but just picked up the wife a new Pink .380 pistol for a good price. Women always get in the way of a good truck build.

  8. I guess its official. I'm moving to Charlotte, NC any members around that area?

  9. Here's a first, went to a used car dealer today and looked at a 10 year old Wrangler Rubicon (super low miles though). Their asking price was 5k above book value. I made then an offer (above book value). Nope. They wouldn't even negotiate a dollar off the price... wow!

      People think they can sell Jeeps for more than blue book just because they are jeeps. Ive never understood why they are so expensive, and why they owners and dealerships always think they are worth more than they are

  10. Yay! I get to spend $1,800 on steering/suspension parts on my HD. The issues are most likely caused by my Torsion Lift. Wonderfull

    1. diggerdan11

      diggerdan11

      Yeah both the upper and lower ball joints were starting to shred and at 70K miles that is way wya way to early. The rest of the steering can wear out that fast, but its not that common. So my options now are to drop it back to stock height and maybe have to get smaller tires or go back to stock wheels. Or the most expensive option would be to do a suspension lift. I can do a 4" and keep my current tires/wheels, but if I do a 6" i would have to get new tires

      Yeah we will see, hopefully I dont run into too many issues. They look pretty straight forward

  13. Well the Engine on my Subaru is toast and will have to be rebuilt. I was quoted $3500-$4500 depending on how bad the damage is. The shop owner offered me $4000 for it as is, so i decided to dump it and move on.

    1. diggerdan11

      diggerdan11

      Im trying to decide what to do next. The most practical would be for me to get a mid size SUV of some sort, but im not the prctical kind. Im thinking about an X5 BMW, but I really want a car to put around in.

  14. I may have just blown the Turbo in my Subaru. Grrrrr!

    1. diggerdan11

      diggerdan11

      I hope so. I was driving home and the oil light came on. Im 99% sure the oil pump went out, well i tried to limp it home and I heard some nasty noise coming from the engine, and I had no boost. So the turbo was starved of oil, but hopefully for not long enough that it did damage. I did not have any smoke and no check engine light so im keeping my fingers crossed that its just the oil pump and once the turbo has oil again it will work. Worst case i will have to repace the turbo, intercooler an...

  15. Why do packages take longer to arrive when you are waiting on truck parts?

  16. Hey guys been a long time no see. Been busy lately. Not that most of you probably know me I was that active. Anyways I been trying to start a shop lately and my friend ran me across this website so I figured I'd give it a try. It's for donation but ofcourse none is expected but greatly appreciated. http://www.gofundme.com/rj34s5n

      I think its great you have set up a go fund me to help fulfill your dream. I do have a minor suggestion. Your go fund me description is very vague. If you really wank people to donate you need to explain a lot more. What is your education? Are you a self tot taught mechanic or do you have a training? What your experience? What services would you be providing? Who will you be providing it too? These are just a few things you need in order to create a proper business plan, in order to prove to...

  17. Well, the truck is finally paid off. Awesome feeling!

  18. why am i having thoughts of selling my SS for a C6 corvette?? I just dont know if i can let her go already!

    1. diggerdan11

      diggerdan11

      Thats always a hard decision. IF you really dont need a truck, then it might be nice to have a Corvette, but if you actually use your truck for a truck and dont have a replacement it really sucks not having a truck when you need it.
