The mileage picked up some without the P/S. I did a bunch of mods at the same time so it is hard to tell what did how much. Winter mileage is moot since I built a plow for the truck.....talk about taking a hit on mileage.....

I haven't been on here much....
Too much to do and not enough time to do it. Got a few things to fix on the truck and then to get on that motor swap....

I think I will have to mod the internals of the box to be able to use the grease, but I am not sure. I will take apart the old box for a good look before taking it in for a core. This is really making me curious.....gotta get that box open.

I have to replace a wheel cylinder and re-seal the pinion nut. Probably need a new fuel pump and 02 sensor. Need a new bed too. For some reason the stock bed can't handle 2+ yards of river rock... It looks like a duck trying to take off when I drive down the road with the bed sides flopping......
The wheel bearings need to be re-packed, and the motor needs some new gaskets. WOW! didn't realize the list was that long......gotta run.
