too bad you are paying someone to do that, it is all something you can easily do yourself in less than a day and with basic sockets.

Bought some 5-Star wheels, SR5 black flares, tan cargo cover, rear bumper and other misc pieces...will be picking them all up this week :cheers:

I'm paying them like $75 to do all that. And I forgot to mention the valve cover gaskets.

I dunno about you, but paying $75 in labor for front and rear sway bar bushings, steering rack bushings, an oil change, spark plugs and wires *AND* a valve cover gasket job is pretty decent.

And actually I'd LOVE to do it myself but until I leave for Virginia Friday, I don't HAVE a day.

Found out yesterday my speed sensor o ring wasn't the issue for my leak.

This putting my LBJ/OTR project in hold until infix the problem.

And Kung that's a smoking deal for that. Local shop or friend?

I'd pay $75 to have all that done any day, that's a GREAT deal. It's all easy to do, but time consuming. Especially if you have a lot going on.

I had a few vacation days to burn, so in the last couple of days I installed my CoverKing seat covers, changed the oil and filter, changed the plugs and plug wires and gathered up the pads and rotors to redo the front brakes.

Today, the starter crapped out, so that's what I'll be doing for the next few days of vacation. LOL

Local shop; I did some running around for them getting parts for my vehicle, so in return they're knocking some of the cost off. Can't complain about that.

Installed the new safari rack custom made by Hard Notched Customs in SW Washington. The painted my AOR rear bumper last year so they were able to color match my rack.

The hoop over the lights is a little taller than I would have liked but other than that I like it.
