    Sooo, this happened. I just finished my timing belt/water pump change. I was on my way home, less than a 100 miles after I finished the job, including a new radiator cap.

    What did I do for my truck today? I ordered a new radiator. :annoyed:

    It gets worse.

    I removed the springs beforehand so the truck would be sitting at full compression. That pic was with the wheels straight.

    Chopping the end off all the way to the support only allowed turning the tires little more than halfway.



    Orientated the tires straight again and this is as far as I got before the tire was hitting the bumper.

    Clay barred the truck today and holy shit I never realized how much overspray and how rough the paint was. Started at 9 this morning and finished about 2. I'm assuming the previous owner didn't cover anything before he sprayed the Bedliner in the truck :confused:
    Gonna compound remove the swirl marks polish and seal it tomorrow

    Drove it last week and today a little, i have a new more noticeable extra vibration when driving 60+ that just feels like extra rumble if that makes sense.

    idle is smooth and fine up to 60 mph seems normal considering all the mods i have.

    When doing 65-70 and I put in neutral the vibs go away so i know its not wheel related. : /
