Replaced my fuel filter. I had hopes it would fix my truck bogging but it didn't.

Was thinking about pulling all the panels so I can get my carpet pulled.

Ordered the Upol Raptor bedliner kit, which I'll be doing my interior in, after the carpet is pulled. Now I have a reason to tell my girl I need a new compressor. Hopefully she doesn't get mad.

EDIT : Scratch That... I pulled the rear hatch area carpet. 15 minutes of my time. Didn't pull the panels at all. After I get a day off from work, I can pull the seats, and get the rest of the carpet out. Hopefully the liner comes quickly.

Said, "Screw it!" Pulled the all of it, except for under the front seats. Finding I may have to replace floor boards. Going to clean them up and sand them once they are fully dry. What have I gotten myself into?

Put a left front hub on the '98 Jimmy today. The truck steers and drives nearly perfectly now. I'll take it for a longer drive tomorrow and see how it goes.

EDIT: ABS problems started. I traced one problem to a bad wheel speed sensor on the new hub I installed on the right side. I took the sensor back to AutoZone and they replaced it under warranty. I'll have more details in another thread.

I removed the shims from my new wheel speed sensor. Now the ABS works properly. I'm declaring the Jimmy functional. It will remain so until the next thing breaks.
