Am I thinking the right way here?

No more boat. Also, there is going to be so much snow that you won't have to worry about stumps. An EPIC season is ahead of us!

So it is true about the saying for boat owners is that "the best two days of owning a boat is buying it and selling it!"

For EPIC snow...................I sure hope your right!!!!!:D

That would be nice!

Now back to our regular scheduled programing.......................................Nothing to see here people, move along.......................................................Think Snow

Got some new rubbers! 285/75/16 Firestone Destination M/Ts (33x11.50). Man have I learned a lot in the past few months with this truck. I'm replacing the Pitman and Idler arm right now (after I go get a 1 1/8" wrench from Sears at 8), I've done both wheel bearings, upper and lower ball joints on both sides, sway bar, sway bar bushings and end links, both CV axles, radiator, water pump, starter, and a bunch of other stuff i'm probably forgetting but isn't as important. Yup, she sure is a money pit. All parts have been replaced with quality Moog parts. Not sure how much more I can take before I get a new one LOL
