Sea Foamed the engine. Smoked like all hell when I started her up, seems to idle a lot smoother now. Just filled up the tank too so maybe I'll get some improvement in the MPG's
 
Got it back from my buddy. First step to some new paint.

Smelled burned oil when driving home from work. Checkd the oil level on the dipstick when I got home. It was below the "low" dot. Put 1 quart in, and going to keep an eye on it for the next month or so. This is not good and scared the sh*t out of me!
 
Auto Dimming Mirror

Installed the Auto Dimming Rearview Mirror I purchased from Nissanh today. Install was super easy and it looks awesome! Definitely recommend them!
 
Workin on my 3rd Gen Clock Mod. Relocating clock buttons to make room for voltmeter. If all goes well I'll have a fully function factory clock & voltmeter in one. Hoping to finish in the next couple of days

Slowly starting the build

I decided to do the most important thing first, replaced the LBJ's. I just recently bought my 99 4x4 T4R w/236k miles. It looked like it had the original LBJ's so I decided to replace those first, especially since they were leaking grease and making some noise. I was going to wait a little until I was driving home from work the other day and came up on a Tacoma that was blocking all lanes due to a broken LBJ. I hit my local dealership on my way home and ordered them. So while I was under there replacing those I removed the running boards. I also installed a Cobra 19 CB radio where the ashtray was and a 5' Firestik antenna. What shall I do tomorrow...??
 
I gave it a new place to sleep at night. Moving and going from a 1 car garage to a 30x42' shop.



I've completed and built a retarded amount of things in my 1 car garage. Everything from full engine rebuilds, straight axle rebuilds, locker installs, transmission replacements, clutch installs, t-case rebuilds, to built roof rack, built skids, the list goes on. It's definitely time for a real shop.

Old picture of my 1994 Yota that fit in my garage by about 2 inches.
