btw, I really do want an 8 3/4 rearend with an LSD
took the truck off road the other night and it wasn't too bad, but an LSD would be much better for towing.

how flexable are you?

I'd be too tall..

 

Same here

 

depends which way you're asking

actually I have quite abit of flexibility. I do have kiddo in school from 6am to 6 pm and a babysitter until 10 pm. 808 only works 3 -4 days per week and if needed they can adjust his hours as needed. And my Mom is going to be moving out here so I will have a 24/7 sitter for kiddo then, till then she could stay at my moms.

 

I dunno. For some reason if the pays almost the same, I'd be the ticket person. At least you're not stuck with the people in an enclosed area, you only have to take the ticket and flick em off.

But then again, I don't really like people.

 

you also get to search their shoes!

 

have done conversions on TD's from auto to 5 speed and 5 speed to auto sorry no Neons yet
