1: changing water pumps is easy, on 350 engines anyway. never changed one on any other motor, or any vehicle newer than 2000. I pulled a suburban in last 30 minutes before quitting time yesterday. I'm already going back together with it.
2: the frame rails fit on the lifts really nice. Solid. They don't shake around and wobble.

well, I still absolutely hate working on them. I have to now though, when there are no Fords to fix.

Yesterday I ordered 3 books
Today, a steering stabilizer, replacment fluid for my tire pressure guage, and a holder, a castle nut socket, and new grips for the bike.
and still looking

Eddie, does it have microsoft sync? does it have those lights everywhere inside that you can change the colors? Those are awesome.
vista moon roof? those suck. They jam up sometimes, and it takes us 12 hours to fix, plus a couple hours to a automotive glass guy. Did a bunch when the edge first came out. They have fixed that issue since then probaly.

What year is it Eddie? I want to look up all the known problems. If I had the VIN I could see what warranty work, if any has been done too. (or cut a key for it, and go to arkansas and steal it.)

fluid for a tire pressure gauge?

I've been wanting to get a digital tire pressure gauge, but can't find one to check the dually trucks.

Something I learned this year. Tire pressure gauges go out of calibration. I had a couple different gauges and they were 10 psi off from each other, so I went and got a brand new expensive one, and it was 10 psi lower than the other one.
Tires set at actual 32psi
guage one read 42
guage two read 45-50
new guage read 32
so I was over inflating shit for awhile. I don't think the check tire light comes on for over inflation. It might, just has to be 15-20 psi over.

alot nicer than any guage I've ever had. I'm not setting up racing stuff either though.

after i bought that one, they came out with a digital model. I think I'd rather have the digital one, but I would think that analog is probably more accurate
