Been away a LONG time due to life to make it short. What's new is I totaled the LB7 about 3 months ago, and bought a bone stock LMM LTZ, and its staying that way. Also on the lookout for a 01-02 rc/lb, preferably DRW, but doesn't have to be, to swap the ZF in to.

Ah...."Ms Turbo" is back. :)

So you kept the old truck? Smart move. Hope you weren't hurt too badly.

Ouch! Just the truck injured?
Other than my ribs being bruised from slamming into the console, yes. The passenger side is worse.

I figured everyone missed her more than me :( :rofl:

Yes I did. It still runs and drive, but the frame is twisted all to hell. With it having 160k miles and still running and driving, rejecting the $3000 difference that the insurance company offered me to keep the truck vs letting it go, it was a no brainer.

Thanks man. I'd definitely love to find a rc/lb drw, or make a srw into a drw, to swap my motor and trans in to and get back into the hot rod diesel game. And yes it was, you were still running the 68mm charger and spraying the balls off of it. It made me nervous just watching:eek::rofl: I'd definitely like to see it run now and get with you when I get ready to pull my motor. The thought of building it while it's out has definitely been running through my head, and it'd be nice to pick someone's brain locally that has done it.
Glad you're OK.

Thanks :hug:

You might as well do a build on it while it's out. At least a mild build. It will be worth it. Hollar at me when you get ready to do it man.
