first off thank you......
all that video is no small task, i know there's hundreds of hours devoted to just the editing, let alone all the prep work, and the real work of filming it all...as your doing the work...with out killing the camrea... :D



not a easy task but....A arm bushings pre 88 type...and 88/91

or front suspension bushing over hall in general.

that would be a good addishon to the list, as these rides are not getting any newer....

another one would be cab removal...as its more or less impossible to remove the engine with out taking the trans out first on the diesels..as the oil pan is less then a inch from the axil on the top and rear side...

I'm not too worried about this stuff, I put it out there for free so that people have the info... Obviously I don't want it sold. We've come across a few places where websites have pirated the videos and are using them on their own websites, I'm not going to get my panties in a wad, it's just getting the info out there to that many more people. The "Adventure" videos that Chris, Johnny H. and the crew at Backmarker put together are kind of a different story, that stuff is going to have to be handled a little differently because there is time and money being put into those films and that should be respected.
