    Overdue Maintence:
    So this past weekend I made a list of general maintenance items that I wanted to do, & the quickly jumped to removing a good portion of my engine. I really don't really have any mechanical knowledge or experience so @kyle11863 came down to help... and drool:drool: over the lovely ladies at the US Open down here in HB :laugh:.

    Let the photos begin, apologies in advance it's probably out of order.

    Popped off the the throttle body to clean that off, long overdue




    Popped this off too, cant tell really in the photo but solid black throughout it









    Yaaa that was completely out of order, sorry everyone :goingcrazy:.

    At some point I made my truck street legal again by replacing the bulb on my front right turn signal, also swapped out license plate bulbs.

    A big hardy thanks again to Kyle, he did the majority of the work & even though he hadn't worked on a 1st gen before was able to figure everything out & get it all running after we worked on it for 2 days at about 1am last night :rofl:.:thumbsup:

    Went to Holy Jim with Dustin @Dangerousd1987, his brother & my buddy Tim. Had an awesome time kicking up mud with all of them! Unfortunately Tim's alternator busted, a jeep from SCOR ended up towing him to the road where we called a tow truck.
