yeah, that's me: I'm a sleep-tard!
so I killed a lot of the remaining vibe by indexing the shaft, but it
still did it pretty good above 75. it held together to MN, and my
local 4x4 shop should have it straightened out in the morning, and then
I'll be on my way to Tom's.

the RamCharger got some fresh oil today, much to its pleasure, and had
some miles put on. after 3 months sitting, some in -30 ambient temps,
it took two cranking sessions to fire her up. I like vehicles that
might cosmetically suck a bit, but be reliable after 20 years and
200000 miles =)

if only I could say the same for my 110000 mile cosmetically wonderful
6 year old truck... ;-)
hopefully I'm done throwing parts at it by necessity after this....
