I'll get a switch if we aint got one already. I wouldn't change the screen but once ayear due to the possiblity of damageing the "Y" hose below the screen. Your cooling system/block/piping looked great and wasn't rusty/crusty like some I have seen. Our local Best One Tire does all our tire balanceing. We have a local small guy who balances with the tires on the truck, so the hubs and brake drums also get balanced and he solves alot of our vibration problems. Bad thing is there's a 2 week to a month wait to get to him.

The electric window switch is in my hand, I'll lock in in my tool box so I know it wont get sold!

Try using golf balls to balance your tires, its an actice balancer, IT WORKS! 1 per tire, 2 if you run 385/425/445 and 1 in each drive. I have instaled new 425 steers, without the balls,ran for 2 weeks, SHAKE shake SHAKE, then put balls in and no more shake! and longer tread life without feathered edges. Anyone who runs 385/425/445 knows you cant balance them. Just try it, break 1 bead put a NEW golf ball in it and thank me later! 1 golf ball weights the same as the silaca bags we use to balance. AND... if a golf ball pass you on the hiway, you know you blown a tire! happened to me once! bobo

Hey bigen, i don't know if a CH is the same style grille mounting, but my CX does'nt use any fasteners for the bugscreen/ winterfront it uses tabs that fit into slots on the grille, i bought both of mine through mack, and am very happy with them! bugscreen sure keeps a lot of shit off the radiator, and its easy to take off/ put on...i usually take it off when i run it through the steakin beacon, or they end up blasting it off!.......Mark

I say when it's 0 or below, it's too f*&^%$g cold no matter what the number is...

In fact, when it's below 60 it's too cold.

you must not be very fat, fat people like 50

Nope no BS! it was minus 40 degees! was on the radio weather, only reason i remember this trip so well is that it was thanksgiving day 2007 and my wife was pretty upset that i was not home! coldest i've ever seen it, the LCD screen in the camera froze- up, clouded over effin' cold thats for damn sure! warmed up to a balmy -14 in duluth, had famous daves ribs for my turkeyday dinner. Even at that temp. they were telling people not to go outside,cause it's cold enough to freeze the "juice" in your eyeballs! LOL!..........Mark
