That would be awesome. Thanks. btw, where in Utah are you if you don't mind me asking. Looking at your pics, I'm thinking south east Utah, somewhere nearby Lake Powell as a guess.

haha ya with the 31" and on the rollers it is 1" lower then the door opening. i will have to push the door up about 3" too get it out of there. my dad says it remindes him of that guy that built a motor in his basement and then could not get it out. I dont have a update on the truck i have been working on my Toyota truck (aka taco). the story on that is i woke up and it would not start. so i thought fuel pump. went and got a pump $146 later put it in and still nothing. checked spark got spark. so i went to the junk yard and stole a fuel pump relay cus it was like $86. but i found a passenger side 67 door panel uncut. i found the drivers side on last week. so that was ok. got home put the relay in and nothing. read some more on the issue and found that the maf sensor could do this. so called around and it was about $800 new so i went and got one from the almighty junk yard and pick up one for $45. and walla it runs. then i was putting every thing back to together and found out i broke the fuel hard line that is on the fuel pump housing. so back to the junk yard in the morning. O and i had it scheduled to have a new cat put on it labor free. why cant it be easy. and im looking for a job too. this is getting ridicules.
