Just a reminder, less than a month away now. I plan on being there all weekend with the crew cab and hopefully one other truck too. @RetroC10Sport Jay you want to make a family visit trip out of it? @TubeTruck Dennis how's things looking this year? I know you're a bit farther away now. @Shorty81 Darren you still have no weddings to attend, right? Lol.

Also, a friend of mine should be coming with his C30 and possibly another friend as a spectator.

Oh yeah, @Ken B chance you will be there? And I know it's a long shot, but @towjoe maybe you can pull away from work?

How about anyone else in the OH/IN area? It's a great show!
I won't be able to make it this year. Still without a job here in TN, but things are looking up this week, I got 3 interviews. Hopefully next year!

I should be on the road by 11am tomorrow, taking the scenic route there. Only one truck though. My wife won't be able to make it, but two of my daughters will likely be riding along.

Did they have a designated parking area for 4 doors? Nice group of trucks!

Nope, I went looking for shade and they happed to be there too, lol. Already there's far more crew cabs than last year though.

Actually the dually fronts didn't fix crap. I added two washers to each kingpin spring and that eliminated maybe 80% of it. I added a new stabilizer in the factory location and that took care of the rest of it. After driving all day and going on the cruise through town a couple times it was still fine. On the way to the hotel, I hit some really bumpy spots at around 25mph and I ever so slightly felt just a hint of bobbling. I fully expect it to start death wobbling again at some point. My guess is the king pin springs are weak. The bushings looked fine.
