    I hear it, i think its saying "Get the fuck outta Hollywood"

    Also finished the amplifier wiring, and added military battery terminals. I had to use larger grommets from Home Depot on the fuse as the ones on the fuse would not fit the big ass 4AWG welder cable im using for power. Also pulled through two 16 gauge cables for future switches.

    EVERY terminal has been crimped then soldered.

    I got to do that in the Marine Corps. The H1 has a valve in the can that presurises the motor and transmission so water does not get sucked in. Man I miss those days.

    The question that came to mind: how is it that the engine management, sensors, and body electronics not all shorting out from being engulfed in water like that?

    It's the same thing, except aftermarket. TYC brand. I don't know what my truck ran at before the radiator went bad, but I'm guessing the water wetter was a waste of 10 bucks. 190 is reasonable.

    Yup. If I could ever figure out my seat heater wiring, I'm putting the switches there.

    Don't know about your '95-97 but my 98 has the wiring clip running to the back of where the clock should be.

    I'm glad somebody else appreciates this. I about lost my mind when I saw they made a fake plugin for the clock wiring lol. I thought it was amazing!

    I use the crap out of my clock lol. Fetched it out of a wrecked truck.

    This page has a huge list of links to tutorials, including 2 fuel filter change step by step instructions.

    For some reason, my fuel filter is located closer to the front end, pretty much under where my feet rest on the driver side. Anyways, pretty simple change and saved me the $25 my local shop wanted to replace it.

    How much extra was the clock originally as an option? Thing probably cost a couple dollars to make.

    That's what I was thinking. I have a SR5 TRD OR and it doesn't have a clock. I figured with that package the least it would have is a clock.

    No idea. I have the same setup SR5 TRD and it came without a clock. We had a 96 that was a TRD but had bench seats and manual windows, it had a clock.

    4x4s are so hardcore that we don't have to keep track of time.
