What have you done to your ride lately?

Indy shop diagnosed 7. Needed new valve covers, battery, Vanos Solinoid about 7 hours of diagnosis. I guess I still saved a bunch of money but it did cost me $1600. I'm okay with that. :)

So it is good for another 100k miles? Overall still cheaper than a payment again.

Bingo!!! And the owner said to me when I was walking out to my truck, "You saved a bundle by doing that center tube yourself." I certainly don't mind paying good help. :)

I was excited to install a Ram mount ball on my A pillar when I got home. I should have known better - one of the POs did me a favor and put some weird ass bolt in there that I have no way of getting out. I guess I will be picking up a bolt extractor kit this weekend. I just wanted to do a simple 15 minute install... but noooo.

I mounted a Ram mount on my A-pillar as well. I build my own mounting ball though. Took a 10mm bolt and affixed a Ram ball on the end. Works awesome. So now they sell the balls with the bolts already attached? Cool!

This ball has the mounting hole through it ready for a bolt. My issue is that I cannot get the stock bolts out.

Thought I needed to replace my inner trs but I just had to remove, clean with brake cleaner and re-lock tight - kinda messed up.

Also fixed the supercharger's aux coolant pump and made a new bitchin' positive displacement siphon. :) Now to go tear up the desert before our douche bag president closes more of it.

I ended up having to drill out the old bolt and managed to quickly install the Ram mount. I am really going to enjoy using this mount on long drives. I still need to get a long USB cable to run for a changing cable during extended use. More info later - need to get cleaned up for dinner with the sandwich maker.

You guys know how to wire lights lol. I do need to do picture updates though! Got my switches in today. Will be wiring when I get back to my gf's house where the truck is parked

Found a really easy solutions for lights. Check out the newest forum vendor, Trail Toys. The NSA switch panel is awesome and makes hooking up lights and accesories very easy.

Act like I was an idiot that bought a degenerate online hangout - how would you explain how to wire lights to a switch to me?
