    Went to Anaheim "Pick-Your-part" today, not only did I find 2 undented doors, they were also the exact same color as my old & dented doors! Happy New Year!

      you have to be careful with the cleaner you pick so you don't screw with the coating inside

      True. I used B12 Carb & TB cleaner. I have a high idle now so an adjustment is needed. Runs great though, lots more power & no flat spot at 3,000rpm!

    What a great company RockAuto is, I ordered my camber adj bolts on Friday afternoon & got them Saturday!

      They have some pretty fast shipping but you also might be close to the warehouse they were shipping from.

    2. theexbrit

      theexbrit

      I'm in California & they're in Wisconsin. I've had stuff shipped from North Cal that didn't get here that fast! :-)

      I am just about to order a Hi-Low bi-xenon kit for my wd21 as well. What kelvin rating did you choose? I am going with the 4300k

    2. theexbrit

      theexbrit

      I went with the 6000, lower than that was a little too warm for me. Any higher was too blue.

  19. theexbrit

      I've been checking out the MaxTow trans temp gauge on Amazon. Considering the heat you run in, the heat I have plus towing. Maybe its time we get temp gauges?

    2. theexbrit

      theexbrit

      I have an Autometer water temp gauge, was figuring on an oil presh gauge next but maybe a trans temp gauge is on the cards.
