I snapped this to show my cousin the tires and rims. I see a little rust on fenders were it was cut but nothing else on this side.

I ran across $2.90 Exxon fuel today, so I stopped to fill up the tank! (25 cents a gallon cheaper than anywhere else around here I've seen)

Man, I'm jealous. I don't remember the last time I saw under $3. It is $3.45 to $3.55 around me. At least it is cheaper then diesel which is $4.55 around me now.

Sounds like your axle U joints are shot maybe. Try Ask A Question thread with a little more detail.

It's been around $3.15 for a while. That's why I wheeled right in and squeezed as much as I could into the tank. Kinda sucks to get excited about $2.90, but I'll take it.

Haven't technically done it yet, but once the housings come in on Wednesday, I'll have retrofitted projectors!

make sure you do rust preventive work, you will regret not doing it

What did you do about the glue like material that covers the holes (this is an assumption) in the rear corner?

Hah! Yeah I'm really looking forward to this upgrade. I've been putting it off, but my front end was ripped off in a hit and run while I was parked, so I needed new lights (along with bumper and header panel..). Bought a beefy winch bumper with insurance money and these. Can't wait to get them in!
