I'm sure I will still be doing the same with some stuff. I also ordered a Hi Lift jack with some mounts for the hood. Definitely don't want that thing flying around. That would have a very bad outcome for me and the rig.

Does anyone know what color vacuum line the heat is? My heat is non existent right now. Heater core is working fine. I have checked everything else so far so I'm assuming it's vacuum related.

It is sitting between 170 and 185. I was thinking it may be a bad T-stat, but the hoses going and coming from the heater core are hot as hell. Still may be a bad t-stat though.

Replace your t-stat, temps should be +/- 210*

What temp should I get? I don't see a 210 t-stat. The highest they have is a 195. Will that one work?

195 t-stat will keep you at about +/- 210*. Sorry about the misunderstanding.

No worries. I really appreciate the help. Not having heat really sucks.

Samsung Galaxy S2 and I've got At&t.

Radio shack had a black friday deal on the phone for 49.99 with new contract/renewal. I have been due for a new phone for like 2+ years. I upgraded from an At&t Tilt.
