Replaced the fuel filter and noticed that I have a leaky valve stem in my left rear tire.

Tell me how they go and might reconsider.
Did you leave your greasy finger prints on the bulbs

Centered my axle right, put back the factory intake with a new spectre filter, mounted my lights on the roof now with 4 lights and tried to align it but couldn't get the tie rod to move so i'm guessing it'll have to be jacked up off the ground

Center glass was plexiglass and faded to hell. Thought I should fix it right so I went with a one piece since I prefer one piece back windows.

Got the putco harness installed. Used 30a blade fuses on the + wires. They had these cool little sealed ones at AZ so I bought those.

For anyone who does this, IMO just go ahead and pull the battery and your header panel. Would've been a lot less squeezing my hand in tight spaces and probably would've went faster.

I didn't get the Autopal housing til it was too late but the stock (Sylvania XtraVision) sealed bulbs looked a lot better. Seemed to throw the light further. It was dusk on my way home and I could actually see my lights on the pavement. The hi-beams were ridiculous too.

Oh, and they sent me white leds for my shifter lights instead of red. Bastards! Also they aren't smalled than 10mm so I gotta dremel out the hole.
