I rotated the tires, changed the oil and the fuel filter. Now I have to get air bags or remove the leveling kit.

This week end I removed the front spring spacers. Next is the ball joints, swap the transfer case, advance the timing, adjust the valves.......then I might address the lack of paint but you don't really need paint in AZ.

It is a 95, 3/4ton, regular cab, long bed, Cummins, 5sp.
The transfer case has a bent shift fork causing the mode ring to get chewed up. I have a spare that has been freshened up to swap in.

I sold the 95 cummins and bought a 03 cummins. After lots of work on the new truck, I miss the old one. The old one drove like a tractor but was very reliable. So far the new truck has had, starter, water pump, ball joints, u-joints, clutch, steering upgrades, shocks, and Injectors. Now that it has been caught up on its health I hope to enjoy it for a long time.
