Oil changed, didn't delete the lines. They aren't leaking yet. When they do I'll delete them...or at least attempt to.
Also, I finished replacing the ball joints again today. I had noticed a clunking sound for a while now when I would back up and turn my wheels to the right. It also happened when I hit bumps or hit the brakes hard. I replaced the driver's side joints and they were in great shape. I went to replace the passenger's side however and found that the four retaining bolts on the upper ball joint had worked themselves loose....really loose. In turn, it killed both the top and bottom joints. All better now though.
I also found out a forum member lives in my apartment complex. You reading this neighbor?

You didn't have to reinforce anything when installing the tire mount in the back? Also, how do you about not being able to see out the back? I know thread is a few months old but I'm looking to relocate my spare tire cuz I've 31's and I don't think a 31 fits under truck

As a side note, I started doing 55 MPH on my speedometer (59 MPH by GPS) on the highway. I get where I'm going at a rate of 15 minutes lost for every 100 miles as I figure, and am seeing 19-20 MPG! I'll be keeping it. Now I'm fighting off an itch to paint it all in flat OD green and paint big white stars on it...
