    There will be no rest while im home.I had a alternator bolt break off on my apu so i have to disassemble the apu and get the rest of the bolt out,need to pull my batteries i got one giving me problems but they are under warranty so i will swap all of them out,put new seats in the truck but i have to make an adapter for national seats to fit on bostrom base.I wont pay $700 for new air ride base to fit nationa seats.Ive been sitting here making a list....lol but when i get the old seats out it will be time to get the Glock .40 out and burn threw some ammo...

    I got the seats all put in.National seat co said it couldnt be mounted on a bostrom seat base...Well i proved them wrong.Nothing a 1/8 plate of steel and drilling some holes couldnt solve.I got my new seats in and they are so much more comfortable then the stock junk bostroms that come in the freightliners.I got air lumbar now...

    My lower back was killing me.These stock seats where junk.I know i know over the years im sure they have broken down but i had them redone by a local guy and i still was getting sharp pain in my tail bone area after driving for a while.The problem seemed to be there is a bolt head on the bostrom seat base that hits a plate that is under your butt and the plate is sheet metal its not thick so it drives the pain into your lower back..So i cant wait to go out on the road and try the new seats
