sent you a txt a hour ago Brad.

thought of a great trick to get rid of that hissing whooosh from that hole i drilled. it'll make it a little more bearable 'til we get it fixed.

don't forget to let me know how your fuel gauge is working over the next few days.

I fixed it.

Before:




After:




new hood, radiator support, fender, door, headlights. Got them all from m.sterner

still need to remove the door molding, and wait for the rest of the fender trim to arrive. The grille is getting painted, so it's not on at the moment. I also need to repaint the bumper.

Yes Sir'.. Faulty wheel hub = Faulty ABS. When it kicked in it just let the truck roll instead of actually STOP. Needless to say what I hit was my own, so no further actions needed to be taken. The insurance company issued me a check no problem. 3100 in damage, I fixed it myself.

Nice. haha, I was thinkin about putting wider spacers on like that but just worried as ive heard stuff about studs snapping and with loading er down and with a trailer it makes me a bit skeptic......................

As for me today I got the blazer stuck taking a picture for the photo game, shoveled out and after rockin er back n forth a bit managed to get out. Worked it all the way down to the dirt and spun the tires so much it heated up the ground and i got mud on my mirrors (when its -30 outside)..............smelt some burning rubber im HOPING that was just the tires.....always feel bad for the tranny when you are rockin er back n forth from drive and reverse super quick....hope shes ok!.....got her home back into the garage for her to cool down a bit as she got pretty warm (ya in -30 to). Let her rest for the day in the garage and let all the snow and ice melt off, took the venza to work today..its not the same
