Last night when I pulled in the parking lot at work it started making noises. I've never heard it make any noises from inside the cab. But it wasn't just the "normal" locker noises. It was pops, bangs, and ratcheting that made people in the shop 100 yards away come outside and look to see what was going on. It also felt like it was binding up. Kind of like the parking brake was on (it wasn't). It slowed down for a moment then lunged forward throwing the back end of my truck a few feet to the right. I let it sit for 12 hours while I was at work and it was fine on the way home but it wasn't locking up like it should. May just be the springs but I don't know what caused all the binding, etc. If it does it anymore I'll pull it and look at it. Well I'll probably just take it out actually.

Oh be quiet!!! I'm going to have to get some OCD meds if I continue thinking about how I should have never let my friend talk me out of ordering ARBs instead of the Detroits!!!

It doesn't help that my dad is completely supportive of it. I tell him everything I want to do to it expecting him to say "That's fucking stupid, why would you waste your money on that?" Instead he says "Why don't you? It's just money. If you're going to build it, build it like you want it." Guess I'll just have to start telling my mom. She'll tell me how stupid I am.

Putting this here because I know I'll lose the handwritten list...

Parts needed to get engine running:
Battery from current engine
Air box and AFM from current engine
Thingamajig on back of valve cover from current engine
Positive battery cable from current engine
Main power relay and holder from current engine
New exhaust gaskets and donuts

I also need to order a clutch from Marlin (currently out of stock) and figure out a parking brake solution...
