Saturday night I replaced the alternator on my Rainier and while I had the old one out, I replaced the thermostat (which is located under and slightly behind the alternator). Not all that bad of a job, but man are things tight in there. I really wished I had of thrown that spring clamp in the trash and installed a regular hose clamp though!! There's always next time I suppose.

Got my front receiver fabbed, painted, and installed. Not so great pic. Try to get a better one in the daylight.
