Sneak up on it Jason...take a watering can with you so it looks like you are tending to the plants, and then when ya truck least expects it, crank her up...

Sneaking up means that your wagon wont have chance to plot anything to spite you... :wink:

Re: WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY! by Alfie on Sun Oct 30, 2011 11:25 pm
I spent an hour shearing off the four bolts that hold the bash plate on the underside of my 2,8. Then an hour drilling them out and re-tapping them.
Took off the front cross member and gave it and the bash plate a serious steam clean. I then changed the oil and filter and steamed off the underside and the bottom of the engine as it was bogging, It was that filthy I think I must have had a leak but I cant see one now its all clean.
I also found a shock absorber bolted to the front axle and the steering rod. I can't figure out why but it seems to be fitted with propper brackets so I've left it .Any ideas guys? :D

You can get a kit to fit them on a fronty, more important when you run bigger offset wider rims and tyres...
I thought about putting one on my 2.8lwb, but decided against it as I have kinda got to used to the hedge diving tramlining now. :lol:
