guys I know this is random as F$@K But i had to fill you guys in1 the sil-40 was put on hold as we had another young lad and had to move into a house with-out a damn garage so it had to go into storage ☹ I have been miserable without my baby but i know its coming soon! this summer im taking it out and spending a few weeks to finish it up! Thats also the reason i stayed here for a little longer as I picked up a few 150k plus jobs this spring/summer so I should be back in ontario around aug or sept with all my shit i have bought while here ( a friggen 26’uhaul will do er lol) my 01 2500hd will tow my sil home and we’ll be back in action before you know it!  
sorry again guys I hate when guys start a build post and dont finish lol eeesh…but not to worry!  
cheers,
