Thinking about switching the trans instead of the engine, I miss driving a standard.

Been busy for awhile, about time to get back on the truck. Replaced both door locks finally got the drivers side door lock to work, only with the key but I'm ok with that. I'm replacing the shocks now and should be finding a set of flood lights for my front bumper later. The exhaust will be after that.

Big difference there, old shocks had no life in them. I compressed one of the rear shocks two days ago and it hasn't come back out yet. Wired up two lights i had laying around, any light is better than darkness so they'll do till i can get ahold of something better. Managed to get a good picture of big red while up on a roof, that's a badass F250 right there.
