Bear....how long will the knee replacement slow you down? Hope it goes well for you.

Some rear ends yes. Some I wish. Some I'm glad I don't work on. I'm not for working on a D8 or D9, but a D3 would be a nice size. Maybe a D4. lol

My Buddy, who I also work with, had a total knee replacement on June 6th. He's still having issues getting up to speed. Only works 4 or 5 hours a day right now. Good luck Bear!

I went with a buddy to u-pull-it today and found something really cool. Looks to be a Banks Ram Air system. I tried looking it up online and couldn't even find a picture.

It does basically the same thing as the Gotts mod. This weekend I'm going to modify my AFE intake using the intake tube and the Banks filter housing. Here's a couple pics. The end piece bolts to the fender and the housing slips onto it.
