yes my only truck and yes stole the batt. about 1mth ago....:violent1::violent1: really rough right now ..
 
to bad your not closer, we probably have a complete hood or two and coolers laying around. We run FLD112,s also and usually keep a couple around for parts after we strip them for glider parts.
 
yes ins. is going to pay for every day out of work.......I just hope they don't try and say no way we are going to total it....do to the mount of work and work and parts that have to be had and not knowing if the cab is damaged or not...I put the radiator in it a few yrs back that was 1000.00 the air cooler I have looked up at 300.00 to 500.00, the hood I have seen for 2300.00 new and 2000.00 used, then comes the paint and the assembly, and a/c cond. about 100.00.....just hate it happen at this time of the year...

If they try to total it just buy it back if you can get it cheap and fix it. My rollback was 20 times worse than that but the hit was all above the frame when the driver rear ended a semi hauling drill pipe. It didn't hurt the engine but took the whole front end off as well as the entire right side of the cab missing the driver by about 6 inches. Luckily the driver was not seriously hurt or killed. The previous owner brought it back and rebodied it then I bought it a couple years later.
