installed the new high pressure hose for my power steering, what a weird location it's in. also replaced the o-ring on the high pressure adapter thing that threads into the pump. after i tested that and there werent any leaks, i noticed some coolant puddled on my intake manifold. wiggled one of the throttle body coolant hoses and sure enough one was cracked. quick trip to the parts store and replaced that hose. buttoned that all up, de-greased the front end of the truck, and installed/wired up my new gauges. finally back on the road.

swapped out the heim joints on my rear 7100s, they made it sound as though the truck was going to fall apart. dumped in a thing of one shot in both my swivel housings and started prepping for the VOLR. through on my winch and a few other little things and ill be set. on another note, does anyone know if a twin size air mattress will fit in the truck if i take the rear seats out?

window regulator was catching and popping
Fixed and improved for under $1.50 - see my post on the method.
Yesterday, fixed both sunroofs and tried the rear window ecu solder fix, but failed. There may be other issues other that the ring around the solder point.
Did get to put on a better dash pod, cleaner wood trim (no cracks) and new wheels and tires! all from the now defunct donor car.

Nothing too big. Just changed the fuel filter and spark plugs. Are NGK-R copper series the go-to plug for these? That's what was in it and what I replaced them with. Just curious what everyone else has found luck with.
Next weekend will be tackling changing out the wheel and swivel bearings. Got the rebuild kit on order so hopefully it arrives on time.
