Right now that guy is thinking "All those open spaces and this guy just HAD to park behind me!?"
Glad to hear you were just joking. Sometimes you never know, though. There are plenty of the "hold my beer and watch this sh*t / sweet, now I'll put it on YouTube" generation kids on here.

Changed both front brake calipers, that was easy. No more brakes rattling around. They came with springs, pins and studs to keep pads inplace.

The rotary coupler I got from Paul worked, now she beeps

Its inspection time, lets see what else is wrong with Mandy.

Reassembled the throttle body and put it, the air cleaner and the mass airflow sensor back on the truck.

Added rear drains to the rear sunroof. Found the reason it leaks is that it doesn't actually close or work. Seems the pivot blocks are both bent. I bought another sunroof assembly on Ebay. I may try to straighten existing ones, but since they're cast aluminum, I don't expect them straighten without breaking or be very strong if they do.

I'll add the drains to the front sunroof tomorrow. It's pretty straightforward, just drill the hole and epoxy in the fitting. I could have used plastic fittings, but the brass has very little chance of breaking and only costs a buck more per fitting.
