He is a machine gunner. He wants to try to change to a mechanic when they get back from his tour. He is tired of not doing anything evcept night watch and what ever else he has to do.

And for updates, nothing new other than money. I finally got to talk to him and he moved up one rank and gets more pay for their location. So he is having our Dad pull money from his account and getting it to me for parts. This truck will have 8" polished stainless stacks now. He wants twin turbos since he will be driving it back to Ca. The 3" body lift is going bye bye with the ford ZF 5 speed. I will be installing a NV4500 with a NP205. Now I just have to find another darn NP205 from a 1990-1993 dodge with a getrag trans. Hopefully soon I can talk my old boss into painting it and getting this thing rolling.
