Changed the hose that runs from the radiator cap to the reservoir tank. It got pinched between the radiator bracket and fan shroud while wheelin' and split open. Also going to adjust my shackles later, for some reason they flattened out towards the back caused my wheels to sit about an inch too far back and rub the fender when hitting bumps.

Yeah Even with A/C I am well under 210, a full notch. Even in town I sit around 210, in daily traffic, actually a little less. I could see the heat rising out of it yesterday, I know its not a big difference, and I mainly did it so I can get heat out from under the hood faster so there is less heat damge to all the electronics there.

So I finally get around to replacing the right front brake hose that caused my adventure down the hill with no brakes. Test it out, a rear brake line comes loose. Tighten that up, and retest. Now the left front brake hose just blew apart. TRUCK, Y U SO FIGHT ME???!!!??

Put my 23" Cherry Bomb glasspack on today. Gonna cut the tailpipe off the OEM muffler and put it on the glasspack. The glasspack is straight in and out so trying to get that tailpipe to work will be interesting...

Installed the 784 injectors I got from the junkyard. Already smoother idle, and acceleration. Keepin my fingers crossed for mpg gains, but not expecting much.

Found some new drag hooks at the jy and a new passenger side mirror. And best of all, a pristine steering column cover. Tomorrow, install
