My Bolt has been layed up for a month while I've been down and out with Lyme Disease which brought on an onslaught of Viral Meningitis, Pneumonia and Bell's Palsy... Not fun at all!

Meanwhile, before all this I had started to replace the king pins... finished that last Friday with the help of my younger son. Then went to replace the rear pinion bearing and seal... couldn't get the old one out it was all busted up (Oh! So THAT'S what that noise was!)... Now have the rear end all apart and will start reassembly this afternoon....

I'm desperately trying to get her back on the road by Wednesday as the PO who is a good friend of mine will be here from Colorado and I really want him to see all I've done and get a chance to drive her.

And, oh yeah, while I was working on the truck I got THE call... we became first time Grandparents!! And here I thought I was still 32...

So that was my weekend!
