i have 5 more days of freedom still college starts again for the spring semester, hopefully much will get done between now and then. I really can't say how long it will be, when i pulled the original motor i thought this would be a 2-4 month process, and it turned out to be a year to get to where i am now (although i learned alot and it wouldnt take anywhere near as long to do again). I want to have the truck 100% well before the spring wheeling season starts, not to mention having a kick ass daily driver.  |
