Upstate NY '07

[Turbo Tim 1]

Hey DD do I need to support the back of the engine when I pull the transmission out?



Come on up guys, I'll buy some beer

 

[PToombs]

Don't insult me like that! And yes, you need to put a jack under it. You might be able to hold it with a piece of steel or 2x4 so you can move the truck back outside.

The white stuff's gonna fly this weekend boys! When petey wakes up sunday morning, all he's gonna see out his window are 2 black, sooty pipes in his driveway!

 

[PToombs]

Why? You gonna steal my truck and leave the stacks? Go shovel the driveway, that'll keep ya outta trouble! :-laf :-laf

 

[PToombs]

Well, it snowed some stuff like sand last nite, then it was freezing rain at noontime. Now it's blizzarding pretty good! 2-3 inches since then.

 

[Jgolden]

I think my 82 Dodge plow truck can maybe make one more season of this stuff. Even the mice have moved out.

I'll grant you that Syracuse has had it worse this season so far.

Global warming is just too good to be true.

 

[PToombs]

Joe, I think they moved into my gasser. Little bastids!



I didn't think we had it that bad yet. I'm sure this is the beginning of payback! :-laf

 

[Diesel Dummie]

yes you do tim, but it will only move so far, i had the jack out off there a couple times to get the transmission back in. any way i had some bad luck sunday night,

Complete white out on a curve, took about 30 seconds and there i was, sat there until 1:30 pm the next day, only bent the bumper and ripped off two truck flaps on the way out, tow bill was cheap(helps to know people in the biz).

[PToombs]

[Diesel Dummie]

[PToombs]

Smarty time? Sorry to hear about the pump, stupid VP's! There seems to be more problems in the winter, glad I park my truck! :-laf

[Warpig]

Merry Christmas to you, too!

Holbrow- were you in Rochester wednesday night?

It was dark outside, but I saw a 3rd gen dually red QC with mitre cut stacks rolling eastbound on RTE 490 in downtown about 7 wednesday night! If it wasn't Holbrow, I wanna know who it was, it was nice!
