Spent 100 bucks at walmart for it. Than turned a 20 dollar oil change into an 80 dollar change cause my oil pressure sensor broke after I had changed oil so it all shot out, thank god for cat litter

Put clear fingernail polish over newly cut fender edges. Next is black door trim and gluing it with auto/marine sealer.

Sent from my iPhone because web wheeling is cheaper...

New BDS 2"lift shocks up front and replaced the nasty, rotted, factory coil isolators with BDS 1.5" coil isolators. It was a pain because the PO must have used what ever he had lying around for hardware when he installed the overpriced Edelbrock shocks that were in there. Some parts were brass, some stainless, some grade 8.....what a nightmare! I'm surprised I have knuckles left......

It was to sunny today to do too much. Filled my washer fluid. Tried to get to dents out but didn't last long in sun so I said fudge it. My neighbor came over to me and asked what I used in my rig the other day and I told him I'll help him seafoam his Santa fe. he use to drive an xj until the tranny crapped out.

You should work for seafoam. At least invest in them! lol

Reinforced my track bar axle mount. Teaching my daughter to weld and let her weld it up. I need to clean it up a little, but it holds good.

Tried to track down a decent hood. Wife drove off the other day with the hood popped. You don't go far like that.
