ets start with last friday! i did some happy neigbors prevention, i got a tent garage to hide the m37 inside, it will provide shelter for the truck and me when it rains and it look better in the yard so the niegbor wont have the time to complain about the state of my yard!

and then today i cleaned up a bit in the shed then i chased the tread on the hardware from the frame, i also had the time to clean and etch the four remaining frame hook

anyhow here are the pictures of the day enjoy!

well today i started by saying some church words when i had to replace the front to back brake line under my one ton truck... some clown had put 3 junction in it! now it brakes good again and it has a full line front to back in the stock location, once this was taken care off, i took to the pintle hook and cleaned and sandblasted it, then etched it, then i got the two pan that goes on each side of the engine cleaned,there was about 1/2 inch of dust,oil and god know what caked on them, then i got them strait again and welded all the cracks in them, then they got etched, and then i painted the whole stuff black, tomorow more stuff is going to find its way back on the truck!
