Installed new driver's side swivel ball, pins, seals. Man, 20 years of grease and grim sure builds up. Passenger side isn't leaking but I'll get to it over the coming months.

Thanks to Paul and Trevor for parts. Everything was perfect.

Added a 120v plug to keep my battery's charged when it's parked for extended time.

Not today, but a couple weekends ago:


New calipers and pads at all four corners.
New ABS sensors in the fronts.
New Master Cylinder and brake booster.
New slotted front rotors (had replaced the rears last summer).


I actually have good brakes for a 20 year old lifted British truck with big tires...
