    Was a great trip, Thanks bro!

    Greasing the rear/front suspension made a pretty good difference in ride quality, feels a bit smoother now. Definitely noticed a difference in braking too after raising my BPV, not sure if I like it.. Might end up dropping it down a little because it almost feels like the rear brakes are doing all the work now.


    (For my records/notes)
    -Just ordered a trail gear 8.4" weld on diff gaurd.
    -Just received 5quarts 5w/30 redline, 1gal Lucas 85w/140, OEM oil filter, front diff drain plug, 5xdrain plug crush washers(engine oil).

    just ordered:

    -stainless hardware for my rear shocks (hex button bolts weren't long enough for shocks)
    -3/8" drill bit so I can drill my leaf pack to fit a bigger leaf bolt and install my bump stop to the leaf bolt.
    -linerxtreeme kit
    -water/oil seperator for compressor for linerxtreeme kit.
    -4x denso/OEM spark plugs

    I have high hopes for this DIY Bedliner kit, it comes with 3gallons + rubber stuff so at least it will be a super thick coat.

    Annndddddddddd it's misfiring again..... (3&4) Son of a B*

    I have till Thursday to figure it out. (There is a crucial rattle/knock)

    So glad the dude who towed me from the side of the freeway was super chill. Didn't realize lift + oversized tires = you need a premium AAA card...
