Every hick runs KC's. fück that. they're not worth the money and I'll be running HIDs in these soon anyway

 

I did NOT sell out for an F-150 today

 

or jeep haha

 

That's right!!!

 

i didnt do it today but since i haven't had the net for a while i figured id post it. had to cut off my muffler and splice a pipe in its places after the truck backfired and blew a hole in the muffler. planning on putting a flowmaster 44 series one in its place

 

added windshield visor yesterday and washed it all up today

 

Drove it for the first time in 2 weeks.

 

spent the day trying to swap out my rear springs, the spring hangers were new about 4 years ago so i figured getting the old springs off the truck would be the easy part, guess not, had to torch 3 of them. now i have everything ready to go but no bolts to go through bushings/hangers. they are a weird size, 9/16 x 4-1/2. found a set of 4 from a suspention place in pa for $6.00, locally a fastenter store wants $3.00 per bolt (and no nut or washer either, the "kit" from stengal bros includes a nut & washer) going to check a few other local spots, but will probly order from pa. thats where my hangers & bushings came from 4 years ago. my old springs had defintly lost alot of arch. got springs from a '97 truck for $40 per side, bushings i got locally. im surprized i only got 1 bolt out intact, i anti-seized everything when i put it together 4 years ago, rear shackles were even seized tight, got that loosened. i do still have some frame twist, couldnt put the lift block under the spring pack on left side because it was still 2-1/2" higher at the wheelwell than the other side, i was hoping new spring were the answer, glad i didnt buy brand-new sets, they were anywhere from 90-140 bucks per side where i checked

 

I just put shackles on my truck ad I had to cut the top bolts off. They were never budging loose.

 

Transmission flush, changed fuel filter, having the ABS sensor fixed and a new magnaflow muffler to replace this

 

06+ corners, K&N Intake (not installed yet), extang full-tilt

 

Made it jealous by ordering stuff for the vw's (plural)

 

Put a tag on it.:)

 

Where did you get the visor?

 

Picked up my go kart

 

Cleaned my dad's fishing stuff out of the back seats (last time used: about 4 months ago) and wiped bird crap off the inside of the driver side doors that my dad claimed happened while I was driving. You think I would notice something like that, considering some even landed on the headrest.

 

its like the birds have a contest to see which one can crap on the most awkward location.

 

Oh, they do. And this was a mess too, down the inside of both F/R driver side doors, on the back window, back wall, jump seat had a bit, driver seat caught some too. This bird won the contest that day.

 

got these...

 

Received and installed my new front end receiver hitch.











Hitch installed:


Volant cold air intake installed:

 

Changed the oil so far.

 

took out my drive shaft and took it apart to find no grease in the slip yoke
so i took my yoke and had a hole drilled and taped for a grease fitting and notice the pinion seal leaking so i did that to wow what a difference
a little grease makes

 

Took it on the once-a-week drive.

 

Went to the junkyard this morning and found an explorer center console that wasnt in the worst shape. spend awhile ripping it out, never knew how hard it was. Maybe it was just me. lol Spent the rest of the day putting it in my truck. Still have to make my seat a 40/40 bucket. Thats tommorow

 

Yeah they are a pain. Are you going to recover the lid?
