Left today to get a tire or 2 and a few small things. found a like new tire for 25 bucks mounted,as i went to leave i had a terrible loud obnoxious whistling vacum leak. its where i didnt replace the tbi gasket when i did the tbi mods fixed it.
oh yea,and upon tightening the fuel fitting,the wrench slipped and i sliced the top of my hand open. stitches? naww. peroxide and super glue ftw. So ive wasted all day for this ish. i still gotta go get some frame bushings.

I finished up my major suspension work on the '98 Jimmy. I had my local shop press the control arm bushings in for me. I picked them up at 3:30 in the afternoon. I reassembled everything and was done by 2am. In addition to the control arm bushings I replaced the torsion bar crossmember mounts, all four shocks, sway bar bushings, and end links. It was a long job and I got a lot of grit in my hair. Now I'll have a hot shower and go to bed content with the knowledge that I'm keeping another great truck on the road.

I replaced a lower control arm with ball joint and a tie rod end on the wifes mustang yesterday
I really hate fords and their stupid engineers!! When I was finished I took it to my friends at the Porsche shop and they threw it on the alignment table and now its perfect!! They charged me zero dollars so that was a big win!! As for the blazer the wife is still driving it and I'm in the idea and part gathering process. I talked to the inspection and emissions guy when I took the mustang back for reisnpection about motor swap and sas compliance and he said just do it and bring it to him and I will pass lol! So thats one huge worry off my back

I honestly can not wait until Sunday. This Power acoustic has been a great sub, has literally taken a serious beating and has not missed a beat, even being over powered. But I need more. So the 4th Gen Alpine type R 12 for 100$ will suit my needs well. Dual 2 ohm voice coils which will pull 1000wrms from the amp, I can do with that. Its always said, once you build a system, it will no longer be enough, and you will want more. I think once I get this, and the JBL components, It will be plenty.
