Heck yeah. 2wd putting in some work. I kinda miss mine being 2wd. Got decent gas mileage. More comfortable ride. Definitely faster. Truck looks good though, man.

-new PCV valve
-Induction service to clear out the gunk from my bad PCV valve
-Hauled the kayak down to the river
-Drove it 100 miles on the highway, round trip to drop off a friend

I gotta say, this truck surprises me. I figured it'd be smooth seeing as the only piece of the front suspension I haven't replaced are the ball joints. This thing runs dead smooth at all speeds, and one of the ball joints is bad. No vibration anywhere. It's a welcome change from my 91 that shook to bits at 70mph and my 92 Chevy that would get to about 65 before it started shaking But I found out that was mainly due to the 15x10s I had on both of those trucks were crap, 3oz out of balance as just a bare wheel.
