I just got a few "OEM replacement" lugs from oreilys, $2 a pop. One went... Missing...

But they want nearly $50 for a new hub cap!!!

Welded on the shackle hangers, ordered some parts. Wire wheeled the rear frame and started laying out the tube bed

I feel like I really want to see this thing in action when its done.

Collin

You and me both!. It's coming along slowly. thankfully aside from the bed all the big fab work it done.

I got a feeling the bed is going to be a cake walk after everything else.

Collin

i hope so. Pretty basic design

replaced the intake manifold, knock sensor, cylinder head temp sensor, IAC valve, tensioner, idler pulley, belt, waterpump, thermostat, injector o-rings, pcv elbows, and changed the tranny fluid and filter for what is possibly the first time in 204,000 miles.

That's a scary thought! Bet she runs much better now

Yeah there was a LOT of gunk on that magnet in the pan and the little yellow plug was still in there as well.

Sounds like a fun day. What intake did you use? Dorman?
I have to take mine off again. I have a coolant leak from the rear (drivers side?) and have a P0171/174 code because the little PCV piece on the intake manifold did not come with the o-ring.
I am debating ordering another from Rock auto and returning the one on there as defective (they told me to do that).
