Thanks,
I just dropped off the head to the shop this morning and just ordered tons of parts from @beno
I can't afford to let the shop order for me they will overcharge on everything they get.

We've been doing work with this mechanic for many many years and he's a friend of m dads so I don't think he's too bad on us. Luckily for me while I'm still in school my orients have paid for all the mechanic needs of the 80 while I put all the mods in it ;)
 
Replaced the 3 O-rings that are in that coolant intake pipe. Took all of 5 minutes.

OME stock replacement suspension with man-a-fre spacers. I also removed the side steps & added the CDL switch to the dash, just before the rain!

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention Iggy's guidance, encouragement, & assistance...
I'm about to make the same suspension upgrade.
What size spacers did you use?
Spacers on front and rear, or just front? Thanks
 
Work in progress. Disc/caliper from 92 to 93. Replacing a leaky seal also...Can anyone point me to the link for the 100 series pad mod?

jvazquez53, my Cruiser is a '96 and I put '00 brake pads in the front calipers. It's a tight fit, but they will go in if the pistons are fully seated, but I'm not sure the '93 and '96 have the same front calipers.
 
Washed it, waxed it, applied trim restorer=minimal property value increase :)

Installed Wits' End sticker=moderate property value decrease :(

She missed me while I was in BVI so I came back and took her picture.

Razor clamming/camping on the coast.

Good times!

So where did you camp along the coast? I just moved to Vancouver WA and I want to find some good coastal camping spots. From what I've read there are no "on beach" camping areas in WA. My coworker did the clam thing last weekend and said they were delicious.
