What is your project for today?

i am replacing my TPS, and t-stat, since i have to take off the housing, might as well. going to hit the recycle yards for some new used seats. i might put on some cheap shocks, but i did find that deal on some HD Bilstein for 260 bucks, so i might wait and do it next week. i have to track down a clunk in the front end when i turn. i replaced all the balljoints yesterday, you gotta love that job, but i still have a clunk when i turn sharp, so will see whats up with that.

I was watching College Gameday earlier, do you think there is any chance of an upset? I don't know much about Mich St.

the son of a. oh, sorry, this isn't pirate. the gentleman sold it out from under me. he was lying about the PO sending him the paper work. i called, and he told me he sold it the night before. so i will keep on looking, might even do a suzuki, still researching the suzuki though. why do people lie, when the truth would be better. that was my second one to try and buy, so i guess the third time is a charm. still have not ruled out buying a 2 wheel drive and doin a swap, which may be the was to go. whats up with the dogs?

Damn dude!!! I can't believe that!! Sorry man. I'm sure you'll find something better though. And soon. As far as the dogs... haha. I'm in a "Schutzhund" club which is German for personal protection dog (even though I'm Mexican ). It's like a sport version of police canine. I am a decoy as well, so I get to wear a bite suit and get attacked. We have practice every Tues/Sat. Pretty cool stuff. I don't have to worry about my Runner getting stolen while my dog's in there.
