haha. the secretary at my old high school had an '08 Volvo something wagon...it had headlight wipers...among a huge list of other electrical do-dads that seemed useless to me. Convenient,yes, not practical though.

It was actually $130! Do you think a used radiator is a good idea? I found a guy selling a used radiator that is supposedly fairly new.

whoops...wrong thread

Personally, I wouldnt, especially since you already got one. When mine busted, I was looking for a used one until I could get one from the dealership..but NAPA ended up having two in stock. Id rather replace something like that with a new part than one that could have possible leaks....

$130..psht...Everything is more expensive in Alaska, anyways..

I had a coolant leak at the timing cover (water pump inlet) and I am waiting for the gasket maker stuff to dry to put coolant in it. I haven't put the new rad in my truck yet. Its probably better getting a new one anyway, since there really isn't a way to see if a used radiator leaks unless its pressurized.

i see u got tow hooks, good idea! lol
I've had them since I got my strap, but I am waiting to get the right bolts to put them in the factory location. lol

Before ou totally destroy/total/roll or otherwise make your 2wd useless, you should sell it & show your 4x4 some love.

It will really suck to read your thread about dumping your rig into the ditch or oncoming traffic & hurting yourself, your lady &/or others... Please be more careful out there champ!

My 2wd is my dd. Why would I have only 1 truck for my transportation and risk breaking it when wheeling. I'm sick of using my 2wd for wheeling, but i've got a couple more months until my 4x4 should be ready.

Thanks, and I'm trying to be careful. Its hard to get out of my 16 year old attitude and driving style.

its ok my gf made me one too

They're just jealous of us
