Nice John! cant wait for the pics.
Are you going to put in a bigger fuel tank to feed that monster?

I JUST got back home from a 600 mile round trip to Tok Alaska, Every thing went well. The new front end mods made the rig positively chilly even on most hills ( and there are a lot!) the starter relay went out and my secondary (electric) fuel pump finally died, But the mechanical one kept us going, a bit fuel starved I think.

I definitely want a bigger fuel tank...cant make it 200 miles without worrying about the next fuel stop.

Yea, I am getting the bug to go for a LONG DRIVE!!!!!!!!!!

The trans is tomorrow, and I have been taking pics so you will finally see

this ugly mug..  LOL..

I have found much wireing that needs to be replaced and will have to take my time in replacing that..
I have decided to replace the fridge with another 3 way..  I priced them at Camping world and figure insted of wire this to that and around that to this I would just get another unit
but Larger..  I really don't need that Big empty cupboard above the fridge.  Three years ago when I rebuilt the front end I replaced everything and I have just noticed that the
Idler arm rubber was missing...  Just something else to replace ... While I am at it I am going to replace the power brake set up.. It is the origional and I figure I want to be safe rather than sorry.  I would like to get a bigger tank butdon't have a clue as to what
Vehicle to look at in a wrecking yard..  I have seen some at a ford yard but then again,
I just don't have a clue....  The get up and go I think has got up and went....  any ideas???
I better sgn off before you fall asleep reading this.....John
