That Ford is so old it has a wood stove for a heater.

Left my truck under the carport all day out of the cold nasty rain! lol

Done a little Mountainside prep work on the BII, Brake job on the rear, tightened leaf spring u-bolts, filled front diff with oil, changed winch motor. I was supprised to find the u-bolts as loose as they were. Change oil and bleed the breaks and it should be ready for Mountainside.

You changed the winch motor? It died?

Pulled the FORD bedliner out of my truck yesterday. I hate that thing, it is so slippery that every thing I put in the bed slides from one end to the other the hole trip. Also they capture all kinds of crud between the liner and the bed. Next will probably be a spray in or role in liner.

balage the brushes were stuck/frooze in the plastic holder and the insulation was gone off of one of the wires. I was going to repair but broke the plastic holder for the brushes. No replacement parts from factory so I had to buy a new motor.
