(yesterday)
Oil change, new Thrush 17650 muffler put in, and a hand wash.
Old muffler was rusted right out, new one sounds amazing. It's a bit louder than I'd prefer but it's a lot better than before and the thing was free so..:hatsoff:
 
been chasing a cyl 2 misfire problem. swapped out coil pack on cyl 5. ran great for a 5 mile test loop. come back out to clear the code 30 minutes later, fire it up and started shaking again... oh great... throws a code for cyl 1 now? wth. what would cause a misfire that jumps cylinders?

Door Jamb Wire Repair

Noticed my LR speaker stopped working. And sure enough upon inspecting to wires between body and door itself revealed all 9 of the wires cracked and two for speaker broken. Got the panel off and a few other trim pieces so I could unplug the door harness and pull it through speaker hole. Worked out well! Glad I chose to solder and heat shrink vs butt connectors! Happy with end result! Also happy to be done soldering all 18 of those joints! (First 2 pictures are me removing corrosion from factory wires using vinegar and some Emery cloth, after that solder stuck much better!)

Just had my friend get me the power probe from Matco Guy I think.
 
Timing belt done! All components from Aircabin man on ebay.

Drove it to the junk yard to find misc. parts for it. No luck, found the bottom seat puller though.

That right there is a good idea for a tool.
 
Should've taken more pictures but was too busy working. The aftermarket front/rear bumpers actually fit very well, I was worried based on some mixed reviews but am happy for now. We'll see how they hold up.

this is the route i want to take as well because it may be the cheaper route to go will these "chrome" bumpers fit my limited flares?
 
Finally finished assembly and install of my TRS HID retrofit. Picked up the miniD2S kit at the last Black Friday sale, but hadn’t had time to mess with it till recently.
