Ebay is usually expensive, but you always have your local cl or jy. Guys always parting them out.
Around here there’s not much in the yards but I’ll have a look anyway. I need to look for a second row seat bottom anyway. But now it looks like it’s our turn for snow or freezing rain. Winter storm warning for the next 4 days. Maybe I’ll get to drive The Beast in snow this winter after all. It sure is fun. I love to put it in first, drive around town and just let the engine rev and use that AWD for compression braking. Makes everybody look.

Did you check the grounds under the truck first? I had a problem with mine not working and found the grounds on the driver's side underneath by the frame rail were rusted. Cleaned those and they worked fine. Had to use my dremel tool to get it really clean.

I also sprayed mine with undercoating to prevent rust and the grounds still work good.

I run those mini projectors in all my DRL’s and backup lights and a few turn signals too. I like them.
Edit: so are you moving onto smaller things now, your other shit is fixed?

Let's hope not!
There is/was a gas station 50 miles North of me that you could prepay up to 1,000 gallons of gas at the current price of the day. Not sure how they made money or if they are still in business. My best guess is it’s going up. Now I just need to learn how to make money off my guess.

I'm within 50 miles of an oil refinery--also to Port Newark--which is huge, so I'm pretty close. Idk why--other then greed, why the price keeps going up. I'm in New Jersey, where they still pump your gas. A few years ago we had the cheapest gas in the tri state area--NY, NJ and Conn, till our outgoing former scumbag gov snuck in a 25 cents per gallon tax hike before leaving office.

im still under 3 bucks for 93 here, 10 miles form the gwb.

we also pay just about the highest tax in the country on gas, iirc around 70 cents a gallon is tax.

what really kills me is long island is chock full of E85, theres only one way for it to get there and thats through NJ, why dont we have it all over too?
