Hi Solids Polyurethane

Perhaps I'm particularly sensitive to these types of coatings because the actual topcoat hi solids polyurethane was actually much worse than the Kem Kromik primer, as far as odor and dislike. I'm not sure if the hardener was the culprit and what, if any, effect the reducer had in the mix, I had to reduce it a small amount to make it more workable... Very happy I never opened the stuff inside!!! I even had a good breeze blowing and it annoyed me.

After careful consideration, I'm leaning towards letting the huge landing gear idea go at this time due mainly to the weight. (I have a slightly educated guess that they are over 220 lbs each)

I might add that if I do happen to come into possession of a GM Duramax (Preferring the GMC)  I could go ahead with the extra weight...Especially if a set pops up on Craigslist that's reasonable...

I guess it's time to talk about my truck. I suppose you can see it in some of my posts. I love it! It is a 2000 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 2wd extended cab long bed with the 6.0 LS engine.
A little story; I've gone to look at the new trucks, mouth gets all dry, then I get back in my paid for, nothing wrong with Baby and she glides away just as pretty as you please... Sure a crew cab four door, four wheel drive, dually, WITH DIESEL AND ALLISON TOO!!! would be tits!!!
Some of you may know, if you've ever heard of a spark plug, or haven't spent your life on Uranus, that GM's LS engines are the easiest to soup up.  Very reasonably priced mods and some of the best engines in existence... SO! I've toyed with the idea of freshening it up (new rod bearings and mains, rings, oil pump etc) and slapping on a set of aluminum L-92 heads and a new intake. Then adding a small turbo charger (75mm) and running about 10 lbs of boost. I figure that'll get me in the 500-550 hp range and around 500 ft. lbs. of torque to pull my trailer loaded uphill without, lets just say, getting in the way... My dealer says they can reflash computer and offered options for the transmission.. While toying I have noted that Hudiburg Fleet sales in Oklahoma seems to have the best prices on the 2015 and 2016 3500HD crew cab 4X4 with Duramax and Allison....Both with pickup bed and cab and chassis and bed options as well. (I'm rather fond of the aluminum flat beds)
Obviously I'd go with the dually for stability but folks that's an awful lot of money, I cannot trade my truck because she's my girl...She's reliable if I do nothing! I have a car I could trade in but I'm not a fan of payments AT ALL! Therefore I'm left with paying for it by working my butt off. I'm starting a complete exterior first thing in the morning, I'll get the interior as well... But honestly, I'd need 20 more to buy that truck and I'm not certain I could do it. Sure, it would be fantastic and I could do more dabbling in heavy equipment (buying/selling) but I just don't think I could do it. That is a boatload of money!

That's all I have to say about that. I need to get up early, get to Nashville and get to work... It rained a good portion of the day here and I had to give a bid for work so nothing got done on goose today, still need to finish priming bottom of diamond plate and painting it as well, then I need to run 7 conductor wire in conduit, wire in breakaway box, electrical connector, brakes, stop and turns... Then design and build ramps. Add additional lights etc.
