My plan is to have one 2 post lift at some point. The layout I am currently working with has 14' ceilings and a 15x15 lofted area in the back corner; storage up top, area for a milling machine, lathe, and work benches down below (close lighting for detail work). The lift would go off to the side of this on the 30' side leaving room for 2-3 more cars along the 50' side. Depending on when I get this done, I might be stealing a 1 ton 25' span jib crane from my dad to install on the initial build. We bought it off my old employer for scrap value (~$250).

Well you guys, my girl didn't want to roar to lift this morning. You know why? Bad fuel pump! WTF is that! No sign no warning, just bam! I have spent over $1000 this week, got me some shoes, paid the rent, and bought an almost $300 fuel pump and fuel pressure tester. Missed a whole day of work because my bro-inlaw helps me with my truck stuff. However, at least it wasn't something that cost me a thousand dollars. I woulda definitely sold her.

If I just drive to and from work (9 miles each way) I am going through about 2 qts a week. If I drive any more than that it starts pouring out pretty bad. Yesterday I could barely see behind me, and when I went to wash the truck, there was fluid spots all over the back today. I just hope it holds up till mid-July when I can afford to have the trans rebuilt.

got the transmission filter changed today. should have left the filter seal in the trans, have a hell of a time removing the old one and then ruined the new one trying to get it pressed back in. Had to end up buying another filter kit for the little metal seal!. Got it all back together though. Much easier to do with lift access at work! Also getting fittings and what not together to install a transmission temp gauge.
