Well everywhere here opens at 8. I'm planning on being there before noon. Definately. Just gotta go to bed before 3 tonight lol.

Not to be a b!tch, or a p.i.t.a. BUT, it would be really nice if you did have it cut before i got there or after I left because of my friggin allergies. You heard me blowin my nose over and over like a train... Just saying.

Just some set backs. Broke some bolts, repaired them, stripped out the studs that were put in place of the bolts. Then decided to get new parts from ford. Thinking the flanges would be the same didn't order them. Got new parts from ford. Y pipe is different flanges didn't line up. Check part number online Y pipe is correct for the truck. So go back to Ford order new flanges. Everything should be together tomorrow.

I hear ya about broken bolts.... everyday I fight with rusted a$$ bolts on cars that are only 2 or 3 years old.. Ontario and Michigan are the biggest salt users and abusers....


I wish they would put sand down if they have to put something down... I say dont salt or sand plow it and let the drivers learn how to drive...

Ok just to make sure everyone understands that we are not incompetent. Or that we can not turn a wrench. The Dealership gave TurboSevenThree parts for an early 99. That is why nothing is lining up.

Yes we had some problems. But he ordered new parts from the dealer. When he got the new parts he tried to put it back together today. Well come to find out the parts that were sold to him were for the small turbo. But he didn't find that out until after talking to John Wayne from here. Needless to say so Monday he goes back to the dealer to return the parts he already purchased and to have the dealer order the correct parts. Then back to my house then it will all be back together.

Yes I do think we have written the book on Murphy's Law.
