What? I like the color too! Hey, you know, it is yours...there are many like it, but that one is yours! Please no pink...:cookoo:
Exactly you know the purist might have a kidney stone over the color .. The can claims it's 1920 army green and it's all rattle can till I get my rust under control then I'm going all out and making it sweet

Just my luck started my truck today after driving for 10 - 15 mins I got home and noticed my truck dripping open the hood and find my fuel filter housing is leaking so 70 bucks later I bought a spin on filter and base so tomorrow I'll be installing it and I'll share with you all what I do

Out with old in with the new
I bought a wix filter base part number #24770 I bought it at o'reilly auto all the part numbers are the same for the napa just remove the first number I looked at a couple online and found 4 different bases for different size filters I chose this one for the cheap price for now .. My only suggestion to anyone doing this is to get a diesel gas can and prime your filter to the max I did not because I didn't have a can noir a car to get the diesel since my truck was apart . It's not a big deal if you don't because I did with out I just did Alota priming and opening the hoses to bleed air out she runs and to be honest starts better and idles better .. I have plans to install a transfer electric pump so the next time I install a new filter it's a breeze..tomorrow I'm installing new tie rod dust boots my one is completely torn off the joints still good thankfully so more pictures to come with daylight

Decided I wanted a snorkel well my old suburban had a snorkel I custom fit to it so my dad got sick of having a snorkel so instead of cutting holes in my fender I just did a clean swap ImageUploadedByTapatalk1396400469.254963.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1396400483.339047.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1396400494.086050.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1396400469.254963.jpg
