Yesterday my rear window wiper stopped working. After investigating, I found a broken wire in the hatch to body wire loom. I split her open and performed some surgery. It was sad to ruin the beautiful OE wire loom, but had no choice. Taped her all back up and the wiper works great again...

Ran Snake lake loop clockwise this last weekend and tested Metal Tech's sliders and Sean's rear bumper. They did there job well!!! Both prevented a lot of body damage and me from crying......Money well spent!
While I did get a million pinstripes, only a few really showed after washing and only these scratches below were bad...

Sean's bumper saving my rear corner...

Installed a PYLE PSP8 all weather 5-Inch trumpet speaker under my secondary battery tray to use with my CB. I drilled two holes in the bottom of the battery tray to attach the speaker with a zip tie. The pre-attached audio cord was ran along the fender, through the firewall grommet and plugged into the CB.
Placement for this speaker was trial and error to allow for both an out of sight location, and maximum volume. Trying to install it by the firewall cut the audible volume in half.
Also replaced a leaking heater hose attached to the heater control valve. looks like I'll need to replace all the heater hoses as PM now...
Cut the hose for easy removal.
New hose from NAPA part# 11333...

Installed relay for a/c fan using existing bolt by the charcoal canister.
Wired it up to a/c pressure switch to control the fan. Used instructions in this link: Pro Comp 14" Aux Fax Install - '97 LX450 - https://forum.ih8mud.com/index.php?threads/311276/
Works like a charm....

LUCKILY we had spares in the group. His truck only has 115k so his Heater Control Valve was in good condition. But most HCVs are a mess inside and should be replaced.

That's great to hear. Agree on the heater valve. Those things crumble without notice.
