pulled the trigger on some qa1 coil overs. i want the truck a little lower, and needed shocks for the front. 2 birds with 1 stone. the rear will drop some more with the sliders, and i want the front around 1.5" closer to the ground too. not sure why i'm going so low with it, but every time i drop it a little more, it looks a little better to me 
got the garage cleaned out yesterday and pulled the truck in and started toying with mounting the trans cooler. had to do a little more cutting, but i figured out how to get it to fit (TIGHTLY). trans lines should be easy right? hahah. the truck seems to be fighting me every step here lately. had to get a new water pump for it. took forever to find stock trans lines from a silverado. and now i go in tomorrow for epidural steroid injections in my lower back and schedule a back surgery after that. woopie

it's all good. been toying with the truck. the cooler is in, trans lines are run, throttle cable is hooked up, and the wiring is cleaned up and in its perminate spot. i still need to figure out a nice clean way to mount the MSD box and keep the wiring clean. i wanted to put it in the glove box and run it through the fire wall, but behind the dash of this little pickup is like fort Knox! i'm not pulling the dash to make it happen so i need to find a spot to mount the ignition box. planned to get the coil overs in over the weekend and distracted myself with all the little details to try and clean things up.
I accidentally bought another 6.0 yesterday. Ly6 i believe. it needs new bearings but i couldnt pass the deal up. more money that could have gone towards finishing the truck
i'm thinking it can possibly be a future low compression build
