Replaced the heater core

While I was at it I used some double sided tape to mount a screen to my fresh air vent. Leaves got into the heater box last winter and started burning on the resistor wires.

Drilled the holes to mount the bolt-on receiver to my bumper... in the process the drill bit caught and the drill came around and smacked me in the chin... didn't think it was too bad, but kept bleeding so I finally went in to check it out. Pretty bad gash so an hour's drive to the ER, an hour waiting, 45 minutes getting 4 stitches, and an hour back home.

Hopefully get some grade 8 hardware to mount the hitch this week and I will be ready to pull...

Prepped the truck for bed removal, cut the bolts and, with the help of my engine hoist, got the bed off. Now I can get to replacing the rusty floor.

Not exactly do anything to her today, but what I got for her. Finally got me a Marti report, And nothing really jumps out at me for being surprising, but the last option. It has to be a typo right?

Grade 8 hardware to mount receiver hitch, replaced driver's side grille insert, and installed a tow hook up front (bound to get stuck at some point)... fresh snow makes for nice picture opportunity...
