Oh joy. Gotta have all of our big trucks tested for opacity in 1/2 hour. Thank you ARB!

Got a couple of 'em, agree.
Seems like it sometimes, and that 40+ for today, was 19 coming home from dropping the kid off, don't think it's gonna make it. 19*, and some kids rode their bikes to school - these little scandahoovian descendents are tough little squirts.
She can borrow my hoist, like her to have a few reasons to come visit.
Nope, afraid I'm gonna have to cut it; little space between the case and swingarm, think it'll cut through part of the cleve block, too, but I'm not using that again anyway. Moving it back out in the garage next week, will leave it on so I can temporarily put the wheel back on to move it, then cut it out there. I've been hitting it with wd40, will try one last time before I cut it. I sure hope with the swingarm off, I'll be able to drive it out of the case; can't turn the pivot shaft, so stuck in the case, too. Cut off, I can pull the trans and press it out... maybe. Also thinking when I get it in the garage, might just go ahead and strip it to the frame, not much left to do that. Then I could repaint the frame, would look better than just touching up the bare spots. This has turned into more project than planned, but they always do. And already over $1000 above estimate...

once a year we have to have all of our diesel trucks smoke tested for opacity. If you see black smoke its probably going to fail. Everything passed.
