drove 2hrs away to pick up some 95' T/A rims w/ tires for cheap for the bravada. Now I sit here contemplating replacing 2 of the 4 tires on said rims... since I have smarttrak lol, the rears off the T/A are just a little smoother than the fronts

Finally got my last skid plate on (middle one) and taped out 2 of the holes for the front one so now it has 6 bolts instead of 4.

Got some 4 ga. wire and am going to do the "big 3" upgrade. Will invest in 1/0 ga. if needed later on. That 1000.1bd runnin at one ohm is making my headlights almost like strobe lights when my rpms arn't up very high. lol

How does it drive after all of that
Steering & front suspension tighten up nicely. Bilstein shocks made a huge ride difference.

Yesterday while fighting with a busted fitting on one of the front air brake cylinders on one of our firetrucks for the better part of the afternoon, I tore something in my shoulder... One of our drivers cut a corner too close and dropped the rear duals down in the ditch on the passenger side. This caused the rear suspension to bottom out and topped out the front suspension. Guess the clearance wasn't what it should have been between the brake cylinder on the passenger front wheel and the pump front suction pipe. This lack of clearance broke off the air fitting flush with the top of the cylinder... It really wasn't too bad to get out, but not having good feeling in my arms right now, I didn't know where to stop...

Made changing the front hub on my Rainier yesterday, after the fire truck work, interesting... At least it wasn't my right shoulder! Bad news is that the replacement hub had a bad WSS and now my ABS light is on so now I have to do it all over again... That will go back to the parts store tomorrow... But today my shoulder feels like it is on FIRE!

Well, I got my O2 sensor done. What PITA. I hope thats the last one I ever do. Oh wait, My GFs car need 3! ahhhh.

Also but a Gatorback on and threw in some Lucas tranny stuff.

And now diagnosed that my AC is bad. Still blows cold but damn that condenser can make alot of noise.
