Driving a standard anything is up there in importance of love making skills. Granted not everyone is going to learn how to shift an Eaton Fuller transmission with Hi lo range and a splitter but if you cant figure out how to drive a car with a 5 speed hand over the man card.

I wish there was a like button on this forum :lol:

I am cool with anything Domestic but.... My Dodge Dakota was a massive pile of shit. The 07 Sierra I had was about the most boring lame vehicle ever, kinda like it was designed specifically for old men. My in laws have a 09 F250 I have driven several miles and it wins the truck competition hands...

I have no idea why someone would do this but its the second one I have seen in this small town. I dont see the benefits of this at all, and it looked like a decent truck to begin with.

Here the old girl I used to drive.

Dude, that truck has me all sweaty right now but wtf happen to the bad ass mirrors in the before pictures? :lol: I need the old seat too, it looks like a nice seat.

I know man, sometimes I just go out and look at it in the driveway and I have to touch myself.

You and me both man, I have some of the worse luck when it comes to repairs. Thanks man! Thanks Dave! Times 10. You've seen it before :thumbs:

I see you lurkin.

That is just incredible, you are one hell of a fabricator.

For now im just driving it around hauling garbage and in this case some weeds, getting groceries and running errands. hopefully in the near future I will have some better updates.

So I was driving this thing on an 80 mile round trip in the Arizona sun every day and it was getting unbearably hot with the dark gray primer. This is just a temporary paint job until I could get everything mechanically sound again. 50 bucks and a weekend of work:

More stupid stuff: I closed my door one day and the window randomly shattered. A few days I arrived to work with a wet ass and pretty soon the seat foam was disintegrating. One day my wife accidently took my keys with her to work and I was trying to get to work myself. I tried to Mcgeiver a...

The 305 started to develop a good little rod knock so I put an ad on craigslist for a post 87 350 I could start working on. I found this one still in the truck about an hour south west of Tuscon. I got it torn down to the point of pulling the rotating assembly and stopped until I could get...

So shortly after this repair I used the truck to move again and consolidated everything we own into one pickup load shown here. She ran great the whole 1,000 miles through the Nevada desert, only problem we ran into was a end link on the drag link making a bad pop when I would turn. 40 bucks and...

Next was a clusterfuck with my exhaust manifold. As I was tightening them I could tell they where going to snap, I just about had the last one as tight as it would go and hopefully hold and POP. I went to take the second one loose so I could fix it and POP, ohh **** was I pissed. To add salt to...

After getting everything back together and filled with oil I started the truck to find problems with the exhaust manifolds leaking around the donut but most importantly a good steady drip of oil from the front of the pan I just installed. So after reading I discovered they make 2 different...

If you ever think about buying one of these just dont. Do not buy one of these. In all fairness it did do the job twice but it is such a huge pain in the ass its incredible and also very dangerous. First reason this thing sucks ass is the height from the ground to theplate. To explain it...

So when it came time to get the flywheel machined I found that Napa has a brand new unit for about the same price. Im sure someone else knows this trick but you can remove the pilot bushing by backing the cavity full of grease, inserting the alignment tool supplied with the clutch it and...

So everything went wrong when I decided I was going to change the gasket behind the plate that houses the rear main seal gasket pictured here: I did not realize the pan needed to be dropped and accidentally tore the oil pan gasket so I went to replace it and opened a whole new can of worms...

Well its been a really long time since I have posted so here is some stuff I did to the 85 Recently. This first started as a clutch job because the throw out bearing was making noise and it turned into a bigger project. AC Delco clutch kit: Got some new seals: A friend helped me pull apart...

Thats the end of those pants!

Our feline friends are a VERY violent end to a rodents life, if you ever see it in person you will feel bad for the mice. I worked in a shop with huge rats and the shop cat got ahold of one of the rats one night and it was horrifyingly violent. That cat ate the head off. Keep your cats hungry...

Re: The OFFICIAL Dumbest Mod Thread Ohh my effin god, that enormous Jeep almost looked like it came from a factory that way until I realized its got a VW bus graphed into it. In spirit of that photo, I found this one in a very rural part of Nevada. I think its been sitting a while.

You got your truck with paint and a good crate motor dawg! You are miles ahead of my truck. My next big move I have to look forward to is getting a fresh engine so I can move onto rebuilding a SM-465 and it will have a solid drive train, after that I get to start on body work and doing the...
