Spring cleaning... Vac'd out the inside and wiped it all down. Changed the air filter as well as cleaned the carb first time since Ive had the 09... filter was bad considering Ive put 75k on it with the road trip and living in the country, probly could have left it til next year so decided to just change it and keep the used one just in case. Carb was surprisingly clean inside, also hit the MAF with cleaner as well ( yes it was MAF cleaner ) Debating doing the spark plugs but havent had any issues yet so maybe a later date on those?

Should hit the salvage yards tomorrow to find that switch and snag up a few as well as some clear hedlights if Im lucky. Also hope to snag a couple tailights without the chrome rings ( I hate the look of the chrome rings )

Today we drove out along the lake, stopping for a walk then back home. I then changed the oil and filter, cleaned the K&N air filter and cabin air filter, checked tire pressures. And now it’s nap time! 💤

Took a trailer load of leaves and brush to the recycling center, then home for a nap, I realized I almost missed the primary voting oday, so I did tat, and a drive thru the car wash.. Don't care who you voted for, just so you do and they know your feelings on the candidates you like, or dislike.

Last night I noticed right side headlight was out, and today when I was picking up a replacement bulb, I saw the backup light was out. Both are fixed up and working great now! It's always something...

New struts for the 07, ordered the Detroit Axle ones off Amazon. No more clunks and rattles, we'll see for how long.

Noticed a noise from left front hub. These are PowerStop, 3 years old about 50,000 miles .
Ordered a pair of hubs , can’t be broke down whilst getting chemo treatments.

Mongo- I bought sway bar links from Detroit Axle, when they showed up the package said in fine print: made in china... They are so far great. But when I left feedback on feebay, I said "surprised was from china".

That feedback was never published..
