Dang Maintanence!!!
Well Ive been noticing a few things on the truck that need addressing. Cant wait until after wedding so i can address them....
- Going to need tires soon. Im down to 1/4 tread on the BFGs. But i have them sold for $200 when I get new tires
- Spark Plugs and wires need replacing, I have them, just need to do it
- Fuel Filter needs replacing ( I have this already as well)
- every once in a while, while backing hard to left, I hear a slight popping noise from right front, im afraid im going to be replacing a cv axle
- Noticed the engine coolant I put in 20k miles ago is getting "dirty" so now I need to replace that
- about time to replace front and rear diff oils and check t-case oil
Guess Ill start with easiest, plugs and wires and filter since I have them. Then the coolant. Then the cv axle....damn it....
well at least the truck is clean lol

Re: Dang Maintanence!!!
Honestly, Scott I would do the CV Axle first. Get the hard part out of the way first. Then you have it made.

It never ends dude. I'm still fixing up the '98 while upgrading the CR-V and trying to get the '11 the way I want it. At least the mechanical side is done on the '98 (knock on wood). That and I'm still fixing shit on the girlfriend's '02 Exploder!
