I took her for a little morning wheeling under a bridge, the new tires are awesome. I gave her a nice wash at one of the $1 DIY Car Washes, then painted my exhaust pipes black.

Drove it to a buds to help build his front bumper out of tube using his bender. Dang was it a chore!

On way home, smoked a 2nd Gen Diesel kid. Complete with tow mirrors out. I've seen him around and he pulled on me...so I bit. Rolled the window down and said, "Put the tow mirrors in!" He just shook his head smiling. I noticed a programmer.

Next light, it was on. Not much of an issue for me to pull away. I think though he is stock geared. Couple inches shorter and also on 35s as far as I could tell. He was annoyed b/c I had to turn and he came by and romped it loud, no smoke though. lol

Replaced dist. cap & rotor, pre-cat O2 sensor, oil change and filter and serpentine belt.

Replaced the front anchor band, adjusted the bands and installed new trans filter (Napa) last weekend. No leaks and smoother-than-when-I-bought-it shifting!

Did some vacuum tests to narrow down where the leak is (wild vents).
The line that goes up under the hood seal and through the firewall does not hold vacuum.
The one going through the firewall to the vent controls also does not hold vacuum, but thinking on this more, it could be that I need to draw enough to move the vent actuator to the end of it's travel before vacuum will raise.

drove it to town to get fuel for my boat and mower. Noticed that something feels loose under the drivers floor board. I can feel it clunking. Never noticed before cause the exhaust was too loud and made the truck rumble. Im thinking that its probably my control arm bushings.
