I figured since I was open up front chances of me breaking one where slim... I was wrong.

But I'll have a spare from now on.

Fire931 · 06-29-2009, 10:49 AM

yea i'm suprised it snapped... let me know when you get it tore apart as to what exactly was the failure. i'm curious what was the weak spot.

What size tires are those?

O and today i took out my spark plugs to check them, and they were good. Then i took out my ashtray and the mount to get it ready to install a cb radio.

EverTaco23 · 06-30-2009, 04:29 PM

Thanks man!

cole47 · 07-02-2009, 12:23 PM

washed and waxed and changed the oil.

jandrews · 07-02-2009, 06:19 PM

Changed the engine oil to synthetic.

My Taco bit me!

I was going to do the diffs and transfer case, was trying to break the fill plug on the transfer case and my hand slipped off the ratchet wrench and hit...something sharp. Metal is harder than me. I was going to get a hammer to help break the fill plug when I noticed I was bleeding all over the sidewalk.

Good 1/2" cut to the bone on my left ring finger, could probably do with a stitch or two.

Cleaned it, stuffed it full of neosporin, bandaged it. Will keep an eye on it...if it looks like signs of infection in the morning, I'll be heading to the MD...

devilsalmostfree · 07-02-2009, 06:23 PM

finally washed it!

ChrisYoTaCoMa · 07-02-2009, 07:10 PM

Changed the oil to synthetic high mileage oil. Bought new front shocks to install on Saturday with the top mount spacers, new bosch wipers today, filled it up and added lucas fuel system cleaner.

WolfeTaco · 07-02-2009, 07:27 PM

8am tomorrow I am installing DT Headers, Y-Pipe and a Jardine Cat-Back. Monday or Tuesday I am installing a Sonnax Boost Valve & Sleeve Kit and Oversized Pressure Regulator in the tranny. ( an alternative form of a shift-kit ) Next Mod: Most likely MAF Clibrator or some sort of an ECU tune (still researching this)
