Well.......What I got done was a tow! Got to my uncles who refused to do the failing ac compressor so i was gonna leave and go to the nearest AC shop. Seized the pulley, ripped the BRAND NEW gator-back into pieces and is now at a shop waiting overnight to get fixed!

I need a FUKITOL (Thanks Chris)

Thats too bad!

I went to the dealer to price out the Oil Cooler lines. Any repair shop will have to order them at the same price so I thought I would get an idea of what it's going to cost.

The lines that go to the engine come as a package, and the ones that go to the radiator come as a package. Together they cost $380. So with install probably upwards of $500

Kind of a PITA. At least it's not leaking oil fast enough for it to be a major issue. Guess I'll have to start saving my pennies.

Yeah BliziNator, congrats on that! Glad to see something besides rollpans for s10/blazers now!
