2. Why don't they sell 10 packs of 10mm sockets. It's always the 10mm that gets lost/stolen/whatever. They should come in packages like Phillips #2 bits.
I did not. Hell, it takes a lot to bother me with quakes anymore. I was here for the Good Friday one in 64, so this is all just minor stuff. LOL. Honestly, I did read where they felt it in the Capt Cook Hotel Crows Nest (12 or 14 stories up) but I didn't, and my dogs didn't go nuts or cower like the 18 quakes. That one rolled for about 45 seconds or more and cause a lot of damage to homes behind me. This one was a good distance away and SW from Anchorage.

Thanks for asking.

Astro makes some cool stuff!

I replaced the starter on Frankie today... went from the old style to the new mini high torque starter. Still stays engaged for a few seconds after it starts. Going to check it all out with a meter tomorrow.

Today I was on FB marketplace and finally an 04 Expy came up for parts. This one has the same color and material seats, but a bucket on the passenger side,. Perfect. I have been looking for a matching seat for some time, and finally got one today. I also bought the full console, so I'm cheesin'. Sure that will only give me two seats, but I am only me and the GF occasionally down here, so I think I'm going to like the setup.. I gave 150 for the seat and full grey console. Not bad, considering I've been looking for over 2 years for the matching mate.

Nice, AK! Since mine's no longer a DD, I'm having a hard time justifying changing out the center console or doing just about anything more than just maintaining it. Of course, if something fell into my lap.....

Speaking of which... I finally decided to clean and paint the billet grille that was on the truck when I bought it, and see how it looked.

Meh.

Maybe if the honeycomb was black, it would disappear more, but as-is, I'm underwhelmed . To FB Marketplace, it goes, methinks.
