Changed the fuel filter and cleaned the throttle body. Now the intake is making a chirping noise, I hope it goes away.

Lots of activity lately. after my frustrated post involving a busted coolant hose and what I thought to be a sticky thermostat. I believe it was just an air pocket. My gauge would literally spike and decline within seconds while on a long drive back home. Needless to say, I got really good at steering, throwing it in neutral, revving it, and cranking the heat on. Anyways, I believe I got a good bleed in yesterday.

Today I tackled my low oil pressure, my level was low, and I changed the oil...we'll leave it at that...I hope that cured the problem, knock on wood. I sure do hope it's not my pump.

While at Autozone, so I could get some points I bought some thick 85-165 gear oil, too. I snuck away from the cookout for a few minutes and was able to change my front diff before retiring to a game of horseshoes. I also reglued my subs in the rear door, temporary fix.

My headliner is still a work in progress....long list of to-do before college in the Fall.

Earlier this week I also ordered a new TF 2" lift plus two QT guards, no point in that if my truck isn't running top-notch though.

I'm nervous.

Picked up a SD rack off craigslist for a killer price. My gf bought it for me for an early b-day present. Damn good day in my book!

Took mine camping with the family at Mount Rainier. It was the maiden voyage for the new roof rack. The Rover did well as did the rack, and the extra weight made the ride on the HD springs/shocks much nicer.
