reinstalled my speaker amp, tore my whole interior out and took the vinyl floor out because my brother spilled a quart of Lucas injector cleaner back there.....that made a mess. then i washed and waxed it for the first time in months.

well the first one was i didn't do anything TO my truck, which makes sense, i couldn't figure out which word was supposed to be emphasized in the next sentence, so i guessed (i was tired) and then figured i would just do it randomly... it should have been

i didn't do anything TO my truck, but i did get my mirror FOR my truck...



i'm about to go out and try to install my mirror

Went to the junk yard to get a new fog light to replace the driver side fog which is broken. No luck! So I installed a little horn that beeps when you back up and checked what was wrong with my sub not working. It ended up being a burnt fuse. I also took the truck to have the driver's seat redone as it had a big hole on it.

This was truck day

It was a nice day out today, so I figured, what the hey, good time to clean the engine bay....When I took my CAI off for some proper polishing, this is what I found....A BIG ****ING GASH in the piece that connects to my filter....The inside of the tubing was caked in dirt...no telling how much of the **** got in my engine...That happened since about the 20th of dec because thats the last time I really took **** apart and inspected...but with the snowfall and them sanding the roads, im sure my tires were tossing all sorts of **** up in there.

Ordered some new bushings and junk from Rubicon Express. I guess I didn't really do anything to the truck though.

Took it for a ride, took the SL Lift Kit, new SkyJacker 6” Rear Springs, Coil-overs and the Sway Bar Links to the shop where it will be installed.
Looking all of the stuff over to make sure it is all there before we start the install.
Still need to get new U-Bolts but not sure what rear end I want to run so I will have to make do with the SL Bolts.
Still need to take the Tire and rim down but at least we are moving forward.
