replaced electric cooling fan (no more rattling!!!! man that was embarrassing and annoying) and PCV valve... then I put on my BS-hat and wrote a 5 page paper for my HIST 440 class!...which led to daydreaming/contemplated painting my valve cover neon yellow....PM me if anyone has ever attempted this/results.

I need to get a camera that I can control the flash and exposure to get pictures that do a good job of showing the effects. They did a pretty good job of lighting up the turning arc for 4 wheel'n speeds...

Nice

Finally changed the rear diff oil after weeks of putting it off. What came out of there did not even resemble oil anymore it looked more like dark gray almost black colored mud lol.

Honestly I was worried about that both from the front and rear, you never know what the previous owner(s) did to it before you get it. But gladly both looked in pretty darn good shape. Aside from them being the d30 and d35 lol
