Glad to hear you made the recovery although sorry to hear of so many problems. God was looking out for me as I bid without preview and arrived at the lot to find a well maintained truck. May your next recovery be less challenging.

Looks nice, congratulations on the recovery.

My coolant bottle leaks. It does look like it is coming from the driver's side lower radiator. There is only one bolt holding the coolant bottle in place. Remove the bolt and examine the bottle to see if it is the source of the leak. Does anyone have a civvy part number for the coolant bottle?

I understand your point about the built in safety factor in ratings but it seems to me exceeding the working strength on shackles (as well as chains) on a continual basis will eventually lead to catastrophic failure which could be a catastrophe for anyone nearby but a windfall to a personal...

Nice truck. Congratulations on the successful recovery.

I am officially jealous. :wink:

Congratulations. I cannot wait to repaint mine.

That or go with a title company. I ordered SF-97s and after waiting 45 days received florida titles.
