I know I made bookshelves out of 2x12 framing lumber. They are nice and thick and stronger than anything out there for the most part They actually look really nice..

Could that be why I hear music all the time?! Pretty dog gone cool.... Dripley could make that in his shop in a day

I wonder.... if the failure happened in Idaho, could you take him to small claims court in that state, making him have to travel there. An attorney could get you a better return in a court if you can prove fraud because in a fraudulent case you are eligible to receive additional settlement. I don't think I'd let this guy off the hook seeing the damage.

You know the state I'm in says that I have to have insurance that covers bad workmanship. It also covers anything that I don't make right with a warrantee, in other words the insurance or the bond (which is additional type of insurance cost) will pay for another contractor to come in and do it right. Now with all the crap from the gov't. (horrible stupid classes and expenses) I put up with why in the H___ can't they do the same with trans shops?? After all a transmission going out at a critical moment in traffic can be a life threatening situation... much more than some ones cabinet getting wet from a bad roofer.

So does CSM stand for 'Cut Sound Mellow'? Sorry couldn't resist.

Eventually I am going to eliminate the draw straw and go to a tank sump with a protection plate under it so it won't catch any off road items. I like the idea of added flow to the lift pump (gravity) with no more 1/4 tank worries.

I had no idea I was telling the truth

cool stuff Jon, You've helped to educate me a little bit. Must be nice to have a Dodge Durango so fast the cops can't see where it went. He he that's cool and I bet the wife loves it. Nice of you to take time to share the progress.

Won't blow. Truck wears out from metal fatigue. Then engine gets sold and wears out two more trucks.

I should clarify... it's this May in just a couple more weeks. Like I said it's very short notice but if you can stop in for any number of days let IBM and me know. Mike get hurrying up on that trans.... it's a great place.

I know this is short notice but if anyone here wants to join us (IBM Mobile,Jag1, and some others) are meeting up at Annett's Mono Village on May 12th and staying till the 19th. So any Mopar members here are welcome to join us at the rv spaces. It has lots of shade. Let us know, we'll keep an eye out for you. We will be near the restroom in the rv spaces closest to the river. Just look for my black second gen, white camper and LineXed hood. Annetts is at the end of twin Lakes highway out of Bridgeport, California.

On my system it gained 1 psi on a stock pump when I put it in. With a good aftermarket pump it would do better I assume.

Someone told me using the middle finger was the symbol of the ornithological society. Man there must be a lot of local members...

Killer you ain't gettin' flamed for that post... you just have to buy my breakfast.

Yes that and they would be healthier while working and not dwindle off the free healthcare.

Did you guys see the riot at the recent Trump rally? They were trying to roll police cars and causing damage. Putting one trump voter in the hospital, looks like he got hit in the head. But the thing I noticed most was the riot crowd looked like they were all mostly entitlement types, possible freeloaders, living off the working people.

We all want no more Obamanation for a country we live in and love the smell of diesel. What can I say?

I've been to his place a few times. It was amazing how much he took real good care of me and my truck. He researches the best items out there for us and stocks them. If it's not available he will build it the right way. He knows who the right people are for injection pumps too. I asked him, ''Do you believe in the Lord because you really care about others''? He said yes we do.

I used to be in the same boat raising my 3 daughters. I'd work off my backside each day and we were still short on bread. I fully understand. Yep, did you see on the news where they discovered folks who live near natural surroundings live 12% longer on average. Judging just coming back from the Bay area I would say at least 50% longer since I felt so good by just getting back to my private woods.

Never heard a guy crying over just 600 miles Katoom. Sheesh we got guys coming from a thousand miles to meet up. Besides 600 miles of pure trucking enjoyment with your rig... Oh yeah that link isn't right, you need to look at August 2017 not 2016.

I agree with you 100% Russ and everyone here. I must say I was lucky that my Grandpa and I did take a lot of trips together to go see family all around California and Nevada when it wasn't so crowded. We would get in my 64 Malibu and really go see some countryside. Sometimes we would take his Cadillac he'd always have me drive, was a very cool car. I learned a lot about many things from him in my early 20's. He talked a lot about how having God in your heart is so important and then would go on about gold mining or cutting gem stones as he used to do to help support himself even in his 70's and 80's.

Heck I saw a sales pitch on regular TV about how women will love you because this pill will make you bigger. Now that stuff should not be selling on regular TV programming. I'm old so cannot remember exactly when the advertisement was on but, I'm shocked to say that I think it was on early Sunday morning...... was trying to find a good Sunday Sermon. You know without God there is no right from wrong and them bad examples make the kids believe that. As far as I'm concerned there is so little real discipline in school that there really is not much education. And they want gun control instead of teaching our children proper Godly principles, meanwhile Terrorists are permeating every border. Just like Billy Grahams daughter is now saying, we are seeing the beginning of the end times as America goes down the tube and the world is seeing enormous problems in weather, wars, economies, etc.

It turns out this musician called Prince was actually a pretty cool guy. He did a lot of good for disadvantaged folks giving away large sums of money. Now I know something about him instead of being narrow minded and thinking he was just another doped out musician. Somebody should have said, ' Jag you numb nuts he was a good guy' I could have sat around the campfire with him.

You and me thinks the same so many projects which one today??? Take them diodes out of the equation and you would get more charging, then an automated on/ off switch would be best for night time.

It's good to do those things. Thanks Ken for the pics too.
