Seals are in and so far no leaks. I did have to redo on of the bearings after I put it together, but overall pretty good. Now we'll see how well it last on the trip this weekend.

MC full, axles low, confidence high, ambition to change seal low.

Sorry hit the post and not attachment tab. Here's the pic of the axle leak.

I like the fact that the truck has a new front axle, now I only wish it had new rear axle seals in it. Both of the pass side rears are leaking, bad.

Doc if you'r lucky I'll let you ride in it too. LOL. If you're going to the farm today I'll drive it out. Could use the burn pile to toss all the wood that's rotted in the back.

Here are a few pics of the interior now.

I have taken a bunch of pictures today and will slowly start to post them now.

Well I tried to get my batteries to take a charge and it looked like it was going to work. Well as usual I was wrong. So I called Interstate and they didn't have blems but they did have 2 batts that were brought in under warante and tested good. So $60 later I have 2 batts and will have them...

Hello PapaPump Part of my decision was made on cost and serviceablity. The 5 tons are awesome but the cost is something I couldn't justify at this time. Also with a bigger truck comes bigger and heavier parts. I don't have a shop but I do have a shade tree and it's just me. So you can see...

Now that's funny. Maybe I should have my 14 y/o do it like when she cleaned out the cab of my F350. Nothing was left in there, all cd's, tape measure, tire guage..ect...... And I still couldn't see out the windshield with all the streaks. But I'm sure she can sweep.

Well I got to work and found out that a storm is comming through, not her, and I called home to ask her to unplug the trickle charger. No answer. In my mind, she either left or hooked up the batts and took it for a spin. Well she was just at the store. But she was willing to let me walk her...

She is the spawn of Satan. And correct me if I'm worng, poof and skinnedknuckles, does she resemble a troll doll?

Well the batteries appear to be taking a chage from the slow trickle charger I decided to use but as with anything time will tell if they will hold that charge. The tire that was flat I dropped off at Pomp's tire today and as soon as it hit the ground I found the problem, a nail. So tomorrow...

It may be cold but it is quiet.

There are a couple file cabinets and a big mess. No real ideas as of yet for it. Just clean it out.

Ok I know we all want pics and the "story". So here it is. We arrived at McCoy just as they were opening the gates so perfect timing I guess. We got to the truck and as was noted it had one flat tire, outside rear on driver side and the batteries were dead as dead can be. The first thing we...

Yes as in 04:30. I have faith in him, we've done it before when I went up to preview the truck. Feels like years ago now.

Well I am leaving out and picking up poof around 4:30. Should be an adventure. I hope it's a boring one.

Your boss sucks.

Changing that signature felt good. I really wish you were able to come with me.
