    Also got a super awesome, one off, full belly Hefty Fabworks aluminum skid! Dat droop though. Very happy with the shocks too. Moved the bumps up to see how much compression there was and just about used the full shock.

    Had to do starter contacts this weekend as the starter got stuck engaged. When this happens you have to disconnect battery asap as you risk wiring harness catching fire. Thank goodness I had a 10mm wrench sitting on the floorboard. I picked up the two contacts and new plunger for 15 even from local electric auto parts place.
    Also, I had a loud clink type noise at highway speeds or steady rpm over 2400 and only in warm weather (70+). Racked my brain for months thinking and tinkering. I was convinced it was in the EVAP somewhere. I noticed a loud pop or clink noise behind my head one time. It dawned on me that it could be the damn non OEM, brittle/split o-ringed gas cap. Swapped an OEM one over from a Cruiser and sure enough, never heard that noise again. Crazy.
