I dont know the touchscreen keyboard is slow to respond and my fingers are to big and hit more buttons and the phone selects the wrong buttons, i cant handle typing 1 character per 10 sec without going insane
Everything installed back to the muffler, air housing changed, all insulation and heat shielding done (thanks to Tom aka WE3ZS) for sending me some fiberglass wrap and HD foil to make an extra shield for the passenger side, shock mounts installed, one bolt of shocks mounted, oil changed, front wheels lugs torqued....waiting on brother to get here with the welded tailpipe hanger moved) and he's going to help me compress those shocks, install the tailpipe, reinstall the one rear shock that's loose, rear wheel back on....the for the love of god I hope before the sun goes down to have her fired up and test driven. I will hopefully get a video of that one.

I ordered the 3 _87 Octane tunes. Economy, Performance and Towing. But I'm going to wait a week or so to install those, and well I'm leaving the wheel well liners out, you know better than anyone why.
If there is anything loose I need to tighten up, will need to space to get to them. If the tailpipe goes in ok, then I should have her fired up this evening. So glad this is almost done, be three weeks tomorrow that she went up on jack stands.
Although they're not as thick as "purpose made" nitrile gloves, I get pretty good service from the "Members Mark" blue nitrile "exam" gloves at Sams Club. a double two box pack (400 gloves) runs around $10 here in Chicagoland, and if you're really gonna be cranking on something you can try doubling them.
The best part, Christina, is that you can get them in small, medium, or large, so you should be good to go!

Ha how ironic, I was on a seek and find mission this morning because I had to have some gloves for today. Not really about keeping clean it's about my hands having no skin left on them, just red and raw. I finally found smalls at Sam's club and bought a 100 of them. Went through the first 100 I ordered online in two weeks. Have long elbow length chemistry gloves 3 pairs and I took 1 pair and cut the hands off, then put on the small gloves and pull the long ones over, then if I need to feel something I can pull the small gloves off and keep the longs ones on (which are pain to get on an off) and that protects my arms from being any more cut up than they already are.....that exhaust sheet metal is some sharp stuff!
greased my slip joint with some valvoline heavy duty crimson grease, 25 minutes, free, and no more clunk
Did that one about six months ago. Of course that didn't save me from having to plunk down $560 to replace the slip joint and rebuild the driveshaft.
After ~10 miles on the highway I'm not convinced my vibration is gone, though it does seem to run smoother. But I have a jet black driveshaft...my first appearance mod!
