    worse than in my '85 E350? That thing wants to slice off your arm with the metal edges inside the engine cover.

    Possibly. There weren't any sharp edges except for the heat shield underneath the car. You have to completely unbolt the EGR cooler to be able to move it to get to two plugs. Just the plugs took about 4 hours to do. :eek:

    Gathering some info so I can do my alignment and I'm replacing my drivers side inner tie rod.

    It's funny how the repair manual says "try", did Toyota know that the cams would seize?

    Got this at the grocery store this morning. Looked different so I checked the date.
    Older than some of you pups on here.
    Think I'll hold on to this one.
    Who knows, it may be worth... 5 bucks in 20 years.:D

    Happy Sunday!

    Finished the sheetrock taping in the bathroom yesterday and got it primed and the first coat of ceiling paint on. Painting today.

    Wheel bearings going in after work tomorrow hopefully.

    New bathroom fixtures going in Thursday.

    Heading over to Best Buy to pick up a Samsung to replace my 70" LG that is having multiple power issues in just under four years. Very disappointing. I'll be an all Samsung (3) house later today.

    I also had a LG that was good for about two years then I started having freezing issues and it would sometimes just shut off.
    Bought a Samsung from BestBuy and it has been solid for a year now. :thumbsup:

    Replaced the drivers side inner tie rod, put anti-seize on both tie-rods and ordered new sway bar end links (rockauto.com).
