Motor is finally starting to give. Right during Tax returns! Now comes the decision rebuild it and make it a 4.2L or drop a small block 350 in it. Hmmm decisions decisions...

Also got this sweet tire cover at work. Will cover up to a 33" tire. With my employee discount $25 bucks.

Cleared the CEL that tripped today - threw a random and cyl 1 misfire code, probably from the ****storm that occured when my TPS crapped out. Cleared the codes and all is well so far.

Indeed it is easier but with no garage and a freezing ground I felt it was better from the top.

Made the mounts for my ram and tapped the steering box. I hope I'll get it all put on this weekend if the rain will stop.
