Off topic, but I have never seen a Shiner Bock beer in anything but a bottle. Where do you get those cans?

I had actually brought cherry pepsi to get that photo but one of the kids helping work on 01f1502wd's truck brought that.

Sadly i had been planning to do this all week...

Well here's my latest issue, with 3 people in the truck, launching moderately from a stop, got an audible pop from the driveline, back of transmission area.

Found this today, small rubbing of the driveshaft on the bottom of the cab.


So i made some more room for the driveshaft, with my air hammer, then painted to seal it back up from rusting.



Also went ahead and flipped my shock to the forward position on the rear passenger side to hopefully better control my wet pavement wheel hop issues.
