Deeem, do want bagged/bd dually to pull bagged/bd nbs. Or if I had trailer big enough, could pull the 56 and the nbs. Don't see a dually anywhere in the near future for me either...

Got the coolant tank mounted and plumbed up . Moved the tee for the heater hose a little further down stream as I didn't like the hard curve it had to make with the new 5/8 hose going to the tank. Seems to be fine.
sadly, motor is being sent off to a machine shop for new cam bearings, etc. Not upgrading crank, pistons or rods right now. But yes, that was what was happening, until we found grooving on the bearings.
Check out my build thread. It isn't exciting, but hey, I'm poor!

worked on the truck a little this weekend. got the first part of the Pat G tune loaded up and started getting the brakes bled.
being that ive had the brake system open for awhile after switching to hydroboost, ive had problems getting it bled ever since. so i got my buddys Snap on scanner to cycle the abs block and bled it with a mityvac. i was able to get the back done pretty good and started on the front . the passenger side front slowly pulls the fluid through minor air. the driver side still has a ton of air and pulls through pretty quick. im going to try and mess with it some more the week but atleast i have somewhat of a pedal now.

Got some time this past week to put some work in. Kyle brown "kbracing" helped me do some sheet metal work in the bed and in the mean time I was able to use his knowledge on squaring away the chassis. He was car chief for Joe Gibbs racing "nascar" for a few years. So he gave me a lending hand and some knowledge on how to get this thing lined up.
That being said, I just ordered some qa1 coil overs which should be here next week. We're setting the Truck up to be able to run coil overs when I want to go play at the track by simply unbolting the shock and sliding the coil on. Should be interesting to say the least., I'll post a few shots of the sheet metal work and the front bumper mounted here shortly..
