Finally got around to doing plenum fix. Was getting antsy after having the hughes plate for a couple months, but it being too damm cold outside to do it. Managed to switch it out, without running into a single problem. What are the chances?

Wasn't quite as dirty in the kegger as ma buddies 360 was, but the response from the pedal is much better it seems. Have only driven it a half mile or so, since doing it.

Look forward to the nice weather that's about to roll thru, and melt all this snow. Make it good n sloppy.

I didn't do anything to the old pickup, but I did something for it: I ordered up a Stebel air horn. I can hardly wait to get that obnoxiously loud mumberhumbler installed so I can push bad drivers out of the way with a blast of sound pressure.

I was looking at some train horns, but couldn't find a really good place to install the trumpets where they wouldn't make my wee-wee tingle. Not that I'm really opposed to that, but I don't want the old woman always begging me to blow the horns, knowhuddamean?

You could install them anyway and just let her blow the horns.

Got a decent day for a change so I rotated the tires..
I found out my 4 way lug wrench that I have used for years on my cars is not made for the big lug nuts on my Dodge.
So guess who had to use a breaker bar and ratchet to take off and put on 32 lug nuts. Guess who is buying a new larger 4 way lug wrench.. Also found out I am in need of front break pads, when we get some weather in the 50-60's I'll be doing the first brake job on my Dodge.

As joshmopar stated, he changed my air filter. What he didn't mention was he also fixed my power steering pump's return line because it had a bad leak (haha apartment complex is gonna hate us when we leave cuz of the stains in our parking lot) and he removed the firewall type material that was attached to the hood of the truck cuz we think it was burning off onto the engine.
