very frustrating day, having a lot of issues with the turbo drain placement on the oil pan and using -10 stainless hose makes it tough to get a good angle, trying to avoid a maze of fittings but whatever, as long as it works. the exhaust manifold hits the top of the ac compressor, so no ac for now...
I cut the cooler lines too short for where I want to put the trans cooler, so yay for that...

The only thing not looking ugly right now are the wheels/tires

When do you think your truck will be able to move itself again?

Well when I took it off the jackstands with the wheels on it to measure for the driveshaft it started rolling backwards out of the carport, does that count?

Hey blake, there are some slow trucks in that shop
