it's not so much that i am inventive as I am (as stated previously) an insufferable cheap ***... and it kind of comes with the job. marine's and the Infantry get most of the credit for "Addapting and Overcoming" but when you are an MP you are expected to walk a fine line.... between being crooked as hell (like everyone else) and covering your *** (like everyone else) BUT, and this is the key, NOT GETTING CAUGHT AT IT.

that is where others come up short. I ahve done some pretty shady things in my time

Anyway, washed her up for a week of sun, and filled her up.

SINCE the new (not burned up) EGR gasket and TB polish i have gone up a full 1.5 MPGS!! so I'm back at my summer time high of 14.5-15 MPGS baby!

The good:
Put new upper and lower Moog ball joints in today and installed the Brush guard.

The Bad:
Found a broken lower control arm on the drivers side and getting it replaced tomorrow along with getting an alignment.

$$$$ Ouch on a school budget.

Took the Blazer badge off the tailgate. Went much better this time because I used a hair dryer, and my fingers to remove the sticky tape. Still some scratches, but I know those'll buff out.

Bad blurry iPhone pic, what you probably see is the firewall insulation that is there. Its not the factory stuff, its reflective stuff that should work well. I also sprayed the whole floor with the asphalt undercoating spray.
