I fixed a rear dragging brake by replacing the brake hardware.Took the drum and cleaned it up.Also worked on the exaust pipe,ground the flange that bolts to the ypipe so I can weld it on to another piece of exaust pipe to connect it to the muffler.

bought two radiators and installed one. ran through three auto parts stores before i found everything i needed. its fun to ask if they have a part in stock when you are on the phone and then drive thirty minutes to find they have the adapters for the trans lines instead of the oil lines. now i just need to return one of them tomorrow (in a non-leaking truck)

Yesterday i rebuilt my tbi unit. I can tell a difference. not much of a power increase,but she idles better and faster crank time now too. People forget there is 2 fuel filters built in each tbi injector.

Started bending tube for rock sliders...ran out of tube, need more... figured out if I turn the key on and off once,then start it it fires up as it should...too cold and wet to fix the problem.

after removing the stock plastic bumper, and installing a steel offroad unit I finally mounted some new driving lights, and used the O.E.M. wiring and switch.. ..

Thumbs up

Added aluminum skid plates from a 2nd gen - found on a 1992 Jimmy of all things - I got from the Pull-A-Part for a lofty $5.54 for all three including brackets for the oil pan plate...

The cashier loves me, she's cute too and has one of my soft spot cars, a 1994 Olds convertible...
