Default Alma's back.

Let me tell ya, it's been a HELL OF A RIDE, this last year.

Either way we have a clear path and plan now. Tomorrow morning I'm ordering oversized pistons and rings, lifters, and the gasket kit for Alma. After we complete the purchase on the land in Idaho we will start "trimming" down of all our junk. It will all need to go into storage while our place is being built, in the meantime we'll be gypsies. Living in the motorhome and traveling between friends and family mooch docking till our place is ready. Towing the Ranger behind it with Alma in the bed.

As I left her..........MONTHS AND MONTHS AGO!

Tomorrow starts the RE-teardown and rebirth of the project. Should be fun......lol

Being completely transparent here, I thought the thread title was Salma's back, so I wasn't expecting to be looking at two big wheels. Anyhoo - good luck with the project.

I know it's been awhile but I think we're going to need to know what exactly you're doing again and what part you got ordered?.. My mind is a terrible thing to waste but it does need reminding.. LOL
