Well driving to class today i looked down and my oil pressure gauge is at 80psi and my check engine light isnt even on. Talk about freakin out!! But got to looking and hopefully its just my oil pressure sending unit, im gonna put one in today and hopefully that fixes it

Nice looking build and lower miles too, good job so far, when I lifted my first one I did it myself in about 8 hours, the rear leafs held me up, spent more than half the time trying to pry them loose. Lucky for me none of the bolts broke, pb blasted it for two weeks before the build. I now own a 98 and can't wait to tear into it

The guy took good care of it, only drove it on the weekends for fishing. I rubbed the passenger side the other day on a tree going down a 4 wheeler trail haha, not too many noticeable scratches but my doors are a little pushed in. Shoulda seen my old one haha that thing was a piece.

Hey man are you doing anything Friday afternoon? Me and a couple of other guys are going wheeling on Richland Rd if you want to join us, it is just a few miles south of Blowing Rock. I have a bunch of pictures of the trail in my build threads if you want to know what it looks like.

No worries man I understand completely. Senior year is kicking my *** and I start at Sugar Mtn in a couple of weeks so I'll be even more loaded down.

And yeah let me know when you guys go, I'll try to make it.
