Jballard81's 1994 super cab 4.0 4x4 Restore

Drive it almost everyday. I work from home usually so it's usually just around town.

Had to show it off for my wife this afternoon and took her on a ride, where the AC decided to quit working

Still a joy to drive though. Weather is nice enough to drive with the windows down!

Doesn't feel like it's been almost 3 months since my last update here...

Drive the truck almost every day. Enjoying the hell out of it as well. First 3k miles down so changed the oil and it was about a quart low. Probably some burned, but I believe I have leaking valve covers that have now gotten progressively worse.

I knew I should have changed those when I had the intake off to replace the injectors ...

Need to do some additional inspections to see if it's just the valve covers or if anything else is leaking.

Fixed the horn today. Connections were super corroded. Replaced them and it's good now.

Felt like the rear speakers were vibrating/producing unwanted sound. Put some of the HVAC stickum insulation behind them and that seems to have helped.

Finally screwed down the carpet in the back and put the cargo net back in. More finished looking now, happy with how it looks.

Didn't work on the leaks at all it's definitely a combination of valve covers and my power steering pump. Maybe next weekend.
