Ordered another set of OE nut & bolt for the track bar because the last set crossed & broke. Will swap out the butter bolt band-aid tomorrow night.

Next up: Heater core by-pass. I'm tired of breathing glycol vapors and washing my windows repeatedly.

Right now I'm just killing time waiting for it to cool down...

Drove it to work as usual. Nothing better that a big doorless jeep that runs true and straight with no hands at 80 mph.

And apparently lifted my inner rear tire a few inches as i took a left turn on yellow. My wife said she thought i was going to flop(she was behind me)
