Beau, I know you're a youngin so I'll explain it to you... dual tanks were common on trucks for many years. I know that Ford made dual tanks all the way up to at least 1994 on the F150 and F350.

Beau... yes, my truck has saddle tanks. 14 gal & 14 gal. I nearly drained one this morning. I have a full tank left for playing later today.

I'll try to get to SCR this evening. DLH, Nick, and whomever else is heading there from this way, what time are you all heading out? Wife doesn't get off work til 6:30pm. Heading to Laplace shortly to pick up my two youngest. I'll have all three til the Mrs gets home.

BTW, anyone have axle fluid? I'm trying to decide whether I'll remove the axle cover to see what the Richmond gears look like. Vibration still in driveline somewhere.

NEETO!!! Ron, 80W-90 fluid is like 10 bucks for 3 quarts. I think your money makin *** can afford that.

BTW, Im thinking that im going to rebuild my rear end with new bearings and races. Im also thinking of taking my axles in to get checked on a laithe. FYI- I think our vibrations are very similar. I say whoever finds theirs first has to pay for some crawfish next season.
