Your ocd makes for sexay updates! How did you tip the cab up like that? Also, do you have a source for your lizard skin alternative?

Brute strength and stupidity.....kidding. I hooked the engine crane up to the front of it at the firewall, then got it up most of the way....then let gravity and me on the opposite side so it didn't slam to the ground and damage the back of the cab. Coming down myself and a buddy just hand bombed it back onto the floor...wasn't too bad.
Lizard skin alternative fell through.....they only sell in 50gal quantities....and shelf life is only 3 months. Wasn't anywhere near ready to dispurse 50 gallons. I ended up caving and buying a 2 gallon pail of lizard skin.
On a side note: current progress involves a new head gasket, getting ready to order a new clutch/pressure plate/release bearing, had the flywheel face resurfaced, bought the sealed bearing for the pilot bearing upgrade, hoping to drop it off to get machined tomorrow. New pan gasket, valve covers are painted and new gaskets, did a polish job to all the injector lines, blasted and painted up the belhousings, transmission/tcase/twin sticks/spacer are all together and in one piece and painted now waiting to be installed. Rear main seal replaced, and a pile of other small gaskets/seals.
