    The exercise bike attached to the generator should help pick up your speed.....= )
    Jim's 50 miles up into the Sierra's and has no choice, is this a question of how far from a DSL switch you are located?
    I just need to get farther along in my remodeling to where it makes sense to run the lines and have the equipment where it will be.

    It's only 640x483, my 800x sizes must drive you nuts! Which speaking of, feed the squirrels in the cage, maybe you'll get the pictures to load faster? ha!
    Have you checked your speed to see if you're getting the full 50 kps?

    Thanks Ram,

    I used my engine hoist (cherry picker) to lift it on and off.. I cut a piece of 2x6 the length I needed to reach from left to right on the inside of the cab. I pushed up to the top against the pinch welds where the weatherstriping goes. I then ran my engine hoist thru the passenger side door window and made sure I had it exactly centered on the 2x6, then just picked it up and rolled it straight out sideways..

    Heres a pic of what I'm talking about on the 2x6.. Only in this pic I pick it up thru the rear glass to paint underneath it, but you get the idea...

    Got the 4" stacks, rollbars, and new tailight lenses in the truck last weekend. I put on the decals today, I think it turned out nice.. I also got a little green decal for the tailgate that I put in the lower right stripe...

    I've turned the truck around forwards now, getting ready to start on the inside and the tilt frontend..

    Thanks, I appreciate it.. The Jeep is another project further down the road if I don't sell it before then...
