    She runs. What more can I ask for?
    Well I'll tell you, if you rebuild the drum and replace shoes/wheel cylinder/drum. Adjust the brakes properly before bleeding them.

    Shoot. I told my wife this wasn't possible, due to my short bed. I also just want an excuse to get an enclosed trailer.

    A little bit of 75k mile love...

    Oil change, freshen up the power steering fluid, squirt the intermediate shaft with rust inhibitor, rotate the tires and dumped some fuel system cleaner in right before the fill up.

    Put in a new X2 Power AGM battery, the voltage booster chip to get a consistent 14.5 volt charge, and did the big 4 wiring upgrade to 0 AWG wire.20200622_085101.jpg

    I have the same battery, voltage booster is on the way. Can you provide some info on the wiring upgrade, where you sourced the parts?

    Thanks!

    mine come today. the day somebody put this up, my bluetooth earpiece (tiny Jabra style) fell down there while moving. Had to hang up the call rather than go through to the settings on my phone to disconnect the earpiece. Sold.

    I got the terminals from Amazon:
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BSVQLCC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s03?ie=UTF8&psc=1
    and I got the 0 AWG wire and crimped terminal connectors from a local car audio shop (Long Radio)

    Two plastic rivets on the bottom of the corner protector were the hardest part. The plastic came off easy. I pulled slow and all the adhesive came off with it.

    Volant CAI, TRD Exhaust, Throttle Body Expansion with vortex, too many others to mention.
    Back in December I replaced the exhaust with a Toyota Catback. I tightened down the flange bolt as much as possible since there is a stop on the bolt. I have noticed a lot of condensation now at the flange. I'm going to replace the flange gasket, bolts and springs. Is there anything else I should do?
