So as most of you already know Nov 6 of 06 was a pretty bad day for me.

I was driving my truck

when i got in a little accident

so i took it home that day and started to get something done

so after a few days i got pretty disgusted and lost motivation, until i went to the meet and decided to get some shit done, so i brought the truck over to Brians(Orangesonoma),and stuffed it in his garage, where there is room to work and tools

so day one,i removed the other fender and the rad support

Day two: front suspension

day three: bed

today is day four and i am about to get myself motivated and get on down there to remove all traces of anything aftermarket so the rebuild can start from scratch

and here are some more pics for you guys causei know we all love pics

old bags:

new bags:

broken UCA bushings:

Hole in rad from fan motor:

Broken rear shock mounts:

and im sure anyone that was at the Driven Addictions grand opening will remember this:

well i found the cause of it and will be fixing that too:

The wires were touching inside the compressor.

so pretty soon the truck will be back on the road so i can

the shit out of my truck again
