    so i got to looking yesterday and either the previous owner poured coffee (gross) all over the front of the dash or he spit redman juices (even grosser) all over it because there is this thick brown tarry looking shit all over the radio and heater controls and behind it all and everywhere man its gross, its also down in the shifter boots as well..... hell maybe he just drooled all the time idk but its sick looking...!!!
    i think the steam cleaner is in order to clean some stuff up a little, i just have to get dirty and take it all out. but the carpet needs a good steaming anyway so why not do it...
    i also need to repaint my seat rails as they have some surface rust on them i need to deal with...... fun fun fun, did i mention i love used vehicles...!!!

    gonna be taking some new pictures of the truck to post tomorrow, since ive done a little bit of work to it, a lot of it is small stuff but every little bit helps. especially the new front end lights and getting those fugly big ass fogs off the front bumper, once i get my tube bumpers built ill add more lights then, they just looked stupid to me mounted right on top of the factory chrome bumper. plus the wiring was a total mess, the previous owner just didnt have a friggin clue man..... total cityfied redneck i guess,,...
    and praying to little 8lb 6oz baby jesus i can finally pick up my motor this week sometime...!!!
    oh also i ordered my H4 headlights and HID's, i got 55watt 5000k headlights so they should brighten things up a bit...!!! lol

    oh and i got a smoking deal on a wrecked bed that has all the patch panels i need to fix mine with, so im super excited about getting that rust fixed...!!! yeahyer...!!!

    so i heard today from a guy that knows the previous owner of my truck and he says the tranfer case is out of the truck and thats the reason it was being drove in front wheel drive..... but also my uncle was the one who worked on the truck and he said that just the rear drive shaft was fucked up.... i hope it was just the drive shaft because i cant afford a new transfer case right now...!!! guess we will see when i get it all together and running..... this blows, i hate bad news like that....

    my bad luck with the rat 78 hilux just keeps running strong these days.... first off a lady pulls out in front of me the other day and i whack the ass of her car fucking up my front end and ive been going in circles with her insurance company about them wanting to settle.... and today i pull up at my grandmothers a place ive parked at a million times and i hit the storm drain just right to pop a brand new tire..... i mean it just killed the side wall of that tire..... maybe someday good luck will come my way.....

    on a side note, i need to order new shocks for my truck but im having trouble finding part numbers for the length of shocks ill need with the lift ill be running..... any help would be greatly appreciated...!!! its a leveling lift kit thats 3" in the front and 2.5" in the rear. ill be running 15x10 inch bart racing wheels and 33/12.50r15's if that helps any....
