I have 3 kids........ all boys.

Luckily 2 of them are finally adults, so I don't have to take them anywhere. The money part? Well, they don't get cheaper as they get older. You get a false sense of financial solvency when they're all out of diapers and eating regular food, but then before you know it............. BAM!!!!!!!! Graduation expenses, Prom and then college expenses.

Haha I hear ya. Too bad I have two, maybe three weddings to pay for haha. We're starting to save now for all that at least.. trying to get a leg up.

Hey.. there ain't nothing wrong with dual dvd players, seating for 7 and 32mpg on the interstate. Haha

With my increased interest in leveling my truck, I'm looking at getting these tires in the future.

(1 NEW TIRE) 285/70R17 ROAD WARRIOR TERMINATOR MT 285 70 17 R17 2857017 | eBay

Sort of unknown brand, at least to me, but it's worth trying you ask me, they look sweet lol

Water Pump went the other day. Going to replace it this coming Saturday. Putting a 190° tstat in too.

One strut fork bushing done so far. One More, and four lcq bushings to go.

I've had my truck for two years now. Haven't done much other than maintenance. New struts and rear shocks, and a few other small things. Only mods I have done are an Airaid modular intake tube and a Superchips 3865. I'll be posting more, hopefully soon!

Stupid phone case made its way into the shot lol

You'd be surprised at how high 7' actually is for these half ton trucks. My 2nd gen is on 35's with a 5" lift, and before I had the basket on the shell the truck cleared 7' parking garages all the time.

I just leave the camper shell on the truck so the wife can't take it to work.

She countered that with hiding the spare key to her Tundra so I can't take it anywhere either. Rude.

Good to know!

Few pics from my water pump job. Everything went well.. Almost too well lol. No leaks and truck runs good so far. Well see how long it lasts.

Did a 190° tstat and new hoses as well.

usaf2006 · Nov 5, 2016

My little pride and joy. Handmade spanner wrench. Worked as intended.. and yes those are paint stir sticks lol...

I have to admit.. 18 ftlbs of torque for the water pump bolts seems like such little..

usaf2006 · Nov 9, 2016

Water pump install went well. Truck runs great now.

usaf2006 · Nov 9, 2016

Still on the fence whether I want to lift or lower the truck..

Decisions are too hard lol

usaf2006 · Nov 9, 2016

Simple soap and rinse yesterday.

Lots of scratches and swirls need buffing out.

Lil_Ram · Nov 9, 2016

Idk why but you tailend seems so high

Measured just for you. Front wheel well measured at 37.5" from center to ground.

Rear wheel well measured at 39.75".

I've had people at gas stations ask if it's stock height before. Does seem high in the back.

Driveway does have a slight slant

The 265s make it look bigger I think.. maybe that's just me.

Lil_Ram · Nov 9, 2016

Oh okay didn't have to do that just for me haha

Ain't got anything else going on lol. Kids are content playing outside...

usaf2006 · Nov 18, 2016

Ordered rear axle fluid and limited slip modifier.

usaf2006 · Nov 19, 2016

Found a little trail today in the back of my neighborhood. Also made sure 4wd still worked lol, even though it was absolutely not necessary. :roflsquared:
