Default check out those light bulbs

i noticed whenever i was working on my car those little courtesy lights can get hot. Little did i know they were burning the sockets. I this on my under dash lights and my doom light so i replaced them with LEDS.



went with these for the doom light

and i went with these for the under dash lights. There is already a hole in the dash where your vent handles would come out of. I opened those holes up to fit these lights in there and now the lights are brighter and less heat.

Also anyone else have their rear diff make some noise at lower speeds? I heard a few cars make this clicking noise running the true trac diff.

video coming shortly

if you want to rekey your ignition to match all of your other locks follow these instructions.There's a metal clip inside the cylinder, pop the cover off and you will see 6 springs, take the springs out then you have 6 y shaped clips with diff height notches in them. Take them out and like the notches back up with the new key using a blank lock, take the y clips back out remembering what order in the cylinder and reinstall the springs and cover and your done. Now i have 1 key for my glove box, door locks, trunk and to start my car.

Another option, the new lock "kits" come with all the locks, gaskets, retainers AND are all keyed alike!

I enjoy re-keying, I learned it from my father, but in the case, especially if a few could use replace, the new set makes sense and is not very expensive.

ride height almost perfect for my liking. Front end bounce alittle so eventually ill upgrade the front coil overs as well


After goodguys i decided to change this up.


Started by making coil pack boxes and placing the coil packs on the subframe. They are stacked two high. Wires are ran behind the headers and between the engine mounts and subframe.


Which lead to this look


After searching my ass off for some 19156430 valve covers that are discontinued i found a set at a dealership in houston. SO now I'm here. Trying to decide to leave it alone or paint the letters to color match my car. Thoughts?

Either way will look good. I love that picture in front of the garage. Do you remeber what that top radiator hose was from or a part number?
