They are more the boat anchor then a door stop.

Rotated batteries, another thread pointed out how often pass side battery often fails vs drivers side.

While batteries were out, i replaced coolant filter and added a bit of ford gold to bring level back to the "new" min level.

Cleaned battery terminals, sprayed with battery terminal protectant and reinstalled.

Changed oil.

Did tie rods and drag link. And put on a set of cab lights. Also cumming up on my first coolant filter change will be interesting to see what it has caught. What is the easiest way to cut it open?

I just went and picked this up. Finally. Now to clean it, and i may have it powdercoated depending on price...how should i go about cleaning the exterior, should i plug all the bolt holes with something? and are there companies that can clean the inside of it thoroughly?
