saturday, 4:26 you should have a txt from me.


anyhow, i need the 3 orings in the oil filter housing.  It was required to removed this housing to get the motor mount bolt out on the passenger side.  i have taken it apart and cleaned it 3 times (a real pain) and it wont seal back up.  has a slow drip at idle.

its driveable, and probably fine, but it just has a little seap about a half drip every 10 seconds.


It is locked and out side, FYI.



probably a 30 min fix on the lift.  annoying as hell, but i have it down.

not sure how the front mounts are intended to bolt up, i welded in a couple nuts into the unibody rail, and used some of the existing hardware / new grade 8 stuff.


Looked like the truck was hit in the front passenger, once i realized that and banged it back into shape everything lined up a lot better.
