Oh I didn't have to do that. I replaced my radiator tho awhile back. Although my bottom support should be fixed. I hit a deer awhile back and the bottom support is pushed back 4-6" as well as the AC condensor being bowed like a pretzel and the radiator being tweaked. The new one fit an you can't see that the support is bowed unless u crawl under it so I'm not worried about it.

I just noticed some duct tape behind my glove box while trying to run an aux cable to it so after removing it I peeled back the duct tape and realized someone had cut a hole about 3"x2" into the.. whatever it is. The PO must have been hiding something he didn't want anyone to find.

Purchased one. Put in a new AC condenser, cleaned out the interior real good, sat back, looked at it, and made big plans.

Found a nail in my tire. Put on the spare. From being stored in the spare tire spot with only 15psi, the sidewall is deformed. Thing wobbles so bad, I'm glad its not on the front axle.

replaced the starter wire and battery terminals......what a mess -_-;;


also, realized some really simple, cheap modifications that will make my baby so badass its awesome.


list of ideas:
replacing the stock mirrors with full size, tripod style truck mirrors, or something similar

removing the triangular window thats in place for the view of the stock mirrors, putting wood in its place, painting eyes on the outsides of them, and painting the insides a yet undecided color, and mounting cupholders there

finishing painting the dash, and mounting a blacklight overhead to make the flourescent orange glow all pretty ^_^

taking a few ideas from the homebrew mods thread and doing these:

power inverter mounted under passengers seat, plugs in the back seat area so that they are accessible from the front and the back of the vehicle without much difficulty

putting a hub on the inside spare tire holder to make it easier to mount/unmount the spare ( its such a pain in the rear as it is now )

and something else thats currently slipping my mind
