I gave the dirty girl a bath and good cleaning. I found some places that i need to take a rubber eraser wheel to. The rockers have quite a few chips in the paint so i think im going to redo all the rockers with some gloss black as well as the wheels.

Look closely for a reddish dust. This is a sign that the coil has swollen and is rubbing on the pulley. Mine was caused byt the obvious bearing failure. If you notice the dust, try to find a clutch coil before it shells out! Cheaper in the long run.



I sanded the base on the rear bumper. Little defects I wanted to take out before clear. Slow process for me (especially with a Ranger gam going...) Man am I going to be p****d if I ever scratch that bumper!

Bet it is cheap too, huh? In this backwater (is there such athing in a drought?) town, that ain't available! But I have heard that it is good stuff.

Well, the air worked great as usual yesterday, so I dunno.

Mounted my lights on their new mounts, still have tweaking to do.

And found my rearview mirror fell down....AGAIN.
Goddamnit. This one only lasted 12 days. Granted, the button had fallen off and I put it back, but it shouldn't have set before I put it back.

Any suggestions?

Leave it off. The law requires you have two mirrors, nowhere does it say where they have to be..... I actually like the unobstructed view without the mirror there better.
