I'm closer on the diesel. going to try a couple procedures tomorrow and hopefully I will have my truck back. The guys and some friends have been helping me out with that.

Ted has been mentoring Eric and helping me out around the shop today. Eric is doing great. He prepped the Clayton skids with paint, installed the trail gear sliders and Daystar 1" motor mounts on the Rubicon.

Chris figured out a game plan on mounting the rear bypass shocks in John's Jeepspeed today, despite some cage work that will get removed. Tomorrow he'll work on that. If there is time left, we will start stripping the interior of James' YJ and designing his family style roll cage... 6 point, spreaders, grab handles, seat cage, harness bars front and rear.

Ted will be working on Henry's 4runner if thedamn brake cables show up. He will also tackle the front D44 seals in Aaron's Rubicon while Eric does motor, tranny, and gas tank skids with some 3/4" coil spacers in the mix too.

The rest of the week will be finishing up the vehicles we have a the shop, working on the rollcage, and we will drag Cory's 4runner back in. Ted and Eric will work on the wiring and mounting the 5spd/chain drive t-case. I think we have everything we need except the master cylinder and pedal assembly to complete that swap, assumng we don't need any driveshaft work. But that's unlikely.

The weekend was good. Chris and I finished up a couple things on the race car so we could run it on saturday. She pulls really well with the new dual carb set up. The tranny is geared perfect for the new motor and the shifter glides like butter. 5099 is a completely different animal now. All she needs are a few tweaks here and there, a jet kit and some brake maintenance. She should be good for some more practice time and finally back to racing!

Yesterday, Ted was moving out of his house. Chris and I worked on the 12V suburban bid and did research about what it's going to take.

We also swapped an injector on my F350. Hopefully, we'll get all the air purged out later today.

This will be a good day. Ted will work on Henry's e-brake system and Joe's Trans Am. Chris has the rear shocks to mount on te Jeepspeed. Eric will start working with us today and get familiar with the shop. I'm going to the tax office and try to finish my Ford
