    Yeah I'm house sitting my parents place while they are gone so I'm driving my dads FJ. Still have it for one more week. So I have to have my truck running ASAP. And I think Ryan wants it out of the back anyways.

    Because she is exspensive a hell! and the Ladies Love her! ;)

    I always gave my cars and truck girl names and I haven't dated a tiffany before so it helped


    UPDATE:
    Put money down on replacement bypasses for the rear
    Getting a new handle for the driver side
    Clutch to be ordered in 3 weeks
    Carrier bearing to be ordered next week
    Rebuild and Revalve of the C/O will be done 2 weeks out
    Heim and uniball replacement also done 2 weeks out
    Grease zerks for UCAs and LCAs to go on at same time
    Repacking the CVs while they are off and inspect them for bad wear.
    May be able to mount the 2nd gen converson

    She should be ready to rock and roll April I'm hoping
