The stock headlights had a crack in the drivers' side and moisture would gather in the fixture during the night- Threw the 99+ headlights on to replace. looks pretty good- light output is a lot better as well.

I received my steering rack bushings; I bet Fightman has his installed way before I do.

maybe.... maybe not! lol! I just got word, I start work doing Security for one of the Worlds largest Mining Companies on July 4th! :)

If the parts come in quick.... maybe...... ;) Otherwise... I may be just as busy as the rest of you hard working people!
 
I disabled the DRLs today. Really don't care about having a switch to turn them on/off, just wanted to extend the life of my Silverstar Ultras.
Next up ,steering rack/sway bar bushing replacement.
 
Replaced the battery. Not sure how old the previous one was. Picked this one up from Sam's Club. It has 725 CCA and RC of 120min. Came with a 3yr free replacement waranty and 8 year pro rated warranty. And it was only $85...not too shabby.

maintenance stuff

Seafoamed last week then.. changed both o2 sensors, air filter, spark plugs, clean the MAF and throttle body.

This weekend.. water pump and timing belt.

Week after that.. lower ball joint, sway bar bushings and end links, tie rods, CV axle, steering rack and pinion, rack and pinion bushings, oil pan gasket, tranny pan gasket and filter, fuel filter, flush fluids.

been reading up on how to drop the front diff to get to the oil pan. pray for me.
 
I installed a new fuel filter today hoping to fix a sputtering problem i've been having lately. now it wont start, YAY!! looks like i get to replace to fuel pump soon
 
Finished welding on my HD-SKO sliders

Ordered UltraGauge to keep track of coolant temp

Fixed exhaust leak

Installed LX450 Coils
 
Replaced the steering rack bushings (Energy Suspension) and am getting ready to do my LBJ's, ITE's, and OTE's... oh, and my radiator one of these days!!

In better news, I did install OME 880 (w/OME struts) and 906's and am loving it! Ride is great and the stance is just right for me. B-)

I know this sounds stupid.... but are you sure you didn't put the new filter in backwards? Buddy I worked with in a shop did that by mistake and spent all day looking for other problems swearing the filter was in right (We found out otherwise after he went home)

On a side note my new front valance showed up today. Looks like it was for a limited because there are 2 holes on each side that look like there for flares. I will have to fill in those holes but still not bad for brand new at $77.00 ($39.00 of it was shipping)

Running one of those myself. Pretty good deal and a good pro rate warranty.
