That's the weird part, before the soft pedal, I hadn't touched the brakes for prolly 15-20 mins. But I do suspect I sucked in water around the inner Pistons on the front left caliper. The seals on that side should have been replaced...

Air horns. I installed two horns off a dump truck with a wolo 808 inline pump with a relay using stock horn as a trigger. It doesn't put out as much pressure as these horns would like but enough to sound like a train coming at ya

Default Replaced window motor




Replaced my window motor. It hasn't worked since i bought my rig last November. Took a chance on a $14 motor off Ebay. This baby works just fine. 1 down 2 to go. The rear motors are dead too.

Did some spring cleaning, changed the plugs and wires, cleaned the throttle body and air filter. Wish I had done them earlier the motor is much smoother with better throttle response. Before the exhaust had some unburnt gas smell as well, which is gone now. Hopefully gained a few more miles to the gallon.

Finally changed out the Panhard Bar Bushings over lunch. That was more painful that I thought it would be. Maybe it will make some improvement to my death wobble situation.

DII door sills on a DI? Can you give a little more detail on this, I am always interested in improvements. Thanks.
