In Portland I found a leak in the driver side air bag. I ended up at a family owned truck shop and pitched in with the mechanic Robert. Both bags were replaced, front end tightened up, and everything greased.
I later discovered the viscuous fan clutch is bad. This is why the truck had overheating problems when the team was driving it. I just hadn't been around much to diagnose. The fan clutch still isn't replaced because the 2" nut won't break loose.
I cleaned up the interior a bit to get ready for my girlfriend and I's trip from Portland to Michigan. The toolbox drawers ended up being a nice setup.
