What have you done to your 100 Series this week? (88 Viewers)

[xswl]

Installed the Midland MXT500. Tapped into the Radio fuse with a fuse tap on the passenger side for power. I would have thought that there wouldn't be power unless at least accessories was enabled but the radio still turns on? The radio has an auto-off feature, so I'm not concerned, but was surprised it still had power with the car completely off. I guess the fuse box is wired to the battery and not after the ignition?

Gave Big Blue a couple cranks on the torsion bars, new rear OE springs, rear OE shocks, and rear sway bar links with d bushings. Only snapped two bolts in the process and for a 22 year old Michigan vehicle, that’s a par for sure. Drill them out and replace tomorrow, for now I’m dead.

With the tall lift, is that brake line is getting kinda tight?

I’ve completed a few things off the list this weekend! I finally replaced the broken window switch and bezel on the drivers door, and then I moved on the the rear quarter panel! Killed two birds one stone on this one! I had a problem where the rear quarter glass bolts on the C pillar. The lowest bolt ended up coming loose, so I tightened that back up, and I am now currently working on replacing the foam surround
On the subwoofer with one from Simply Speakers. Then, I can get everything put back together!

As it goes: pulled the passenger rear door panel to tighten the door handle bolt, which was loose. Also found a busted speaker cone and rusted speaker - anyone seen this before? Then literally handfuls of broken plastic and small metal parts. Previous owner, wha?!

High clearance hitch for tire carrier

And the annual Easter wash.

Installed a new set of Denso coils that I bought over a year ago. I used this as an opportunity to perform an annual plug tube health check. The plugs are all still nice and tight. Though I did see a couple of cylinders that have wet tube seals. New VC gaskets are planned for later in May as part of a top-end and under plenum refresh.

No idle issues before the change. It runs so smooth that I can balance a coin on the intake. That's one of the reasons that I'm so yahoo crazy about this engine.

When I do the refresh I think I'll go "Full Taco" on it. It deserves it.

As requested, here are some additional pics of the front and to show how much the Method 703s (35mm offset) stick out. I think it’s really close to stock.

That license plate whoa!

Fixed a broken ignition cam on my 1998 LC. I give praise to this forum and YouTube. I wouldn't have had a clue otherwise.

Received my ASAP Flaps from @Ramathorn15 last week, and immediately installed the the rears the same day, got to the fronts the next morning, removing the OEM running boards in the process. Got about a 3 inch lift out of it. When I picked my kid of from school he was not pleased that his step was gone. Now I have to decide if I want to go ahead and get some sliders or not. Anyway, I washed the old girl this morning with my new pressure washer. I dipped the emblems and tailgate chrome back in February, I still need to go back and finish the lower chrome on the tailgate.

I forgot to wash the wheel wells

Installed an ebay snorkel yesterday, which took 2 hours. Half an hour of it was using the template and cutting the holes, and the other 1.5 hours were spent fighting with the rubber coupler that came with it...what a hunk of trash. It was molded in a way where it wanted to collapse at all times. Snorkel itself seems well made.

The snorkel paid for itself the first night I used it, because we found some serious water during wheeling that evening. Took the day off from working on crap today and went to the beach.

And here's my buddy's rover snorkel that we rigged up! Worked like a charm. Smelled like downy sheets too.

OME 2866 Coil Springs, & rear shocks finished up. Torsion bars were unfortunately pretty much maxed out, so I have to figure out how to re-index them or live with 2in of rake.

Looks like a safari copy cat snorkle V1 or V2? Do you have a link handy to the fleabay listing?

Re index is super easy. Took me maybe 30 min on the lift

Are the instructions in the FAQ the best ones? They confused the heck out of me. Definitely want to figure it out this week! PM me if you got any tips. Thanks!
