such as painting the front porch railings. Damn Gingerbread Victorian elevation house, takes a long time to do even when SPRAYING the freakin paint!!!

But, I did manage to get it all cleaned up and I have all the parts to do it right. New seals for the stub axles, rear cover gasket, speed sensor o-ring and diff mount. So I'll probably work on it this week during the evenings so it's ready for the weekend.

Also plan on installing the new ST bars while I have it up on jackstands.

BTW:Developed a small split in my lower radiator hose while rat racing. Happened right below the waterpump and couldn't get Duct Tape around it. Had to fill up the system and leave the cap loose, I found that if I kept my RPM under 2000 I could go about 5 miles before the coolant level light would come on.

...mechanically speaking, of course. Did you get it in? Give us an update.

3m electrical tape works well for emergency
hose repair. i keep a roll in the glovvie for such events.duct tape,while good for structural repairs, doesnt have the flex qualities of a premium electrical tape :)
