Default Didn't know that Jesel Valvetrain Components...

...was in Lakewood, NJ. I'm down south from my place with my daughter visiting my mom for the weekend, and had to register my truck for the past two years (neglected to do so once the trans blew...out of sight out of mind). Anyway, I followed the great NJ signs to the DMV and as usual, they point you in the right direction then the signs end before you actually get there. So I got lost, passed the place, and went a few miles out of my way down this semi-long road that ended smack dab in front of Jesel...I actually made a u-turn in their parking lot to track back to find the DMV. Wasn't a total loss I guess...kinda cool to know where they are and that they're "local", and I got to the DMV on time and my truck is legal again and should be back on the road mid-May-ish

Why would u have to register truck for 2 yrs when it wasn't in use? Here, u register it fromw that time FWD, not retro.
Also, even I knew where Jesel was, & went by, & I wasn't lost! To make my point more clear, I don't live in Jersey. How's that?!?

You guys are rough! Tough crowd lol.

Yessir Tom, you have to register it even if it was off the road, unless I gave them my plates and got new ones, then I'd only have to register it for this year...but I have personalized plates, so I have to pay for every year since I don't want to give up my REAPER1 plates.

Yep, plan to have it moving under it's own power next month...just $400 away Getting all the parts in place...and it's only been a year and a half! Feels like ten years though...forgot what it was like to really drive it

The real question is when does the LQ9 go in! Because that's when you're truck is gonna get pretty fast. 12 second time slip should be well in grasp.
