On Friday I found the auto adjuster in my left drum had busted off and that's what was making the noise in the rear brakes. Right side cable was also broken, pulled that out too.

Saturday and earlier today I made Mr Green Jeans work for his juice by helping my brother move. After finding out what 3000 RPM in 3rd is like he deserves it lol



Very lucky that thing had surge brakes

hopefully this improves the driveability issues ive been experiencing
Go ahead and undo those coil pack bolts again. And retorque them after you replace those e3's with NGK coppers.

Put my doors back on for the first time in 2 months.

My cylinder head came in also so I went and picked that up. I also managed to drop it on my big toe while I was wearing flip flops which felt awesome.
