I hate sand blasting more than any other task. When I was rebuilding the Ranger my cousin had been laid off work and was always hanging around here so I put him to work sandblasting the parts on my truck. I did give him a hood and some gloves. I sure hated to see him go back to work. Not really I was glad his job called him back, but I do miss him being around to do my honey doos.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner. A Republic is a well-armed sheep.

I hope I always stay crazy, because I know if I ever become sane, it will drive me crazy.

Thanks Gregg! Yeah man I hated to see those photos of your truck. Terrible shame.

Michelle I had never sandblasted before this, and it didn't take me long to find out it's a slow, dirty, dusty job! But it sure does clean up some rusty parts!!

well I finally got the rear end dismantled and cleaned up. I replaced the bearings and seals, then painted it. Painted the new drums also.
