What did YOU do today?

[Li'l Work Truck]

I pretty much drove all over the Upstate today. I took my wife out to lunch and then got some groceries. The weather hasn't been very conducive to working outside, so instead of swapping out the steering system, I figured wonky driving could suffice for one more weekend.

Been all over the place today, worked on the camry some and that engine is bolted down now so some steps are done...

Then decided it was a good idea to mow since it's supposed to rain tomorrow, got some things done with the brush hog then put the finish mower on the tractor and made it less than 2 loops when the belt died... gotta get some parts...

Tomorrow I'll get the Camry done...

Hmmm…

We need some pictures of these Camrys. How do we know you’re not really working on a couple of Yugos, or go karts. Or maybe you just bought a good Camry and you’re looking for pats on the back…

Day off work, so I took advantage of that and slept as long as I could lol.

Just ordered a jet/slide needle kit for the bike. Tusk sells their "cold start fix kit" with an upsized pilot & main for 18 bucks.. but.. that ain't gonna cut it in the long run. Found a kit with 5 pilots, 4 mains, AND a 4 position needle for $50 that'll have me covered for anything I end up doing to it short of a BBK.

Gonna make a trip into town soon for a can of carb cleaner & some muriatic acid.. then partake in some science.

The aftermarket front bodymount/spring hanger combo brackets, front shackle hangers, and shackles for both ends of the squarebody need to get stripped of their mill-scale so they can get corrosealed & painted. I guess a soak in muriatic acid should have them nice and clean in about 30 minutes.. never messed with the stuff before.. my understanding is soak in 50/50 mixture of M.A & water until clean... then transfer to a bucket full of clean water with a boatload of baking soda to neutralize any residual acid... Final spray with the hose.. good to go well see what happens. Oughtta buy some chemical gloves too I suppose..

That was Friday after I pushed the grey one in, you might have guessed since the trunk is open it got rearended but only has 115k on it as opposed to the 250k+ on the blue one...

also the floor is not near as clean, I did not anticipate that much trans fluid to come out when I popped the CV's out...

I participated in a parade and two memorial ceremonies. Now, it's time for a nap.
