It lets me know if my turbo is giving full boost and there are no problems :wink:

Today I cleaned my shed :shock:

two and a half hours :oops:

and got more metal splinters in my fingers than you would believe, I really should clean up more after drilling and grinding :lol:

I then made a little present for Andysd1, for his split EGR turbo pipe to blank it off once and for all.

Re: WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY! by gregster on Thu Sep 15, 2011 9:31 pm

Blimey Fudge, I am stuck for words!!!!!

But

I bet that either...

They are a set of 5, but 3 are muds and 2 are road tyres!... :shock:

OR (and far more likely)...

That Fudge is currently scouring ebay to find the ellusive 6th tyre, so he can make 2 full sets of 3!!!! :lol:

Check out the index thread below where pics/reviews from all our past meets can be found!!!!
click here for the SE Events Index/links Thread...see all the reviews and whats coming up soon!

Looks like I'm in trouble with the Mrs's again...
She asked me what I'd most like to do to her body...
Apparently "Identify it" is not the correct answer!

After being quoted £160 for a sheet of chequer plate by the local steel suppliers I managed to get a piece for £6 from the scrappy. After much hammering , bending and swearing managed to redneck it into this.

Aint pretty , but it fits!
