What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (64 Viewers)

[Finnyfam60]

Well, my part out thread has been here for months with little to no activity. I will admit I should have pulled a few other items, but logistics were difficult...
Both Fenders were severely crunched in the very front Or i would have used them.
Rig was rear ended by a big rig, rear gate and hatch smashed, frame tacoed, front end pushed into car in front of it... I still have lots of plastic interior trim, door parts, grab handles, etc etc.

How often does it need to be replaced? My truck has ~280k and no idea when/if it has been changed. I am replacing it while doing a plenum cleanup as a "while I am in there...." item in the coming weeks.

It's my understanding the FF was only intended to be replaced when indicated by engine perform degradation.

Fun! I tried the same thing with Iowans...Google never lies!

I did that for "Californians" and it came back with "Why are Californians so stupid/weird/moving out of state?"

That is SOOOOO pretty! Can't wait to see pics of it installed! Are you going to steam clean the engine compartment to make it all look pretty?

Engine bay already power washed and waiting.

I just threw up in my mouth.

The sheep wants it back.

Sorry, had to. Low hanging fruit.

Did the smog thing just now. Smog guy started the inspection and said, "I stopped doing the physical inspection as soon as I saw your new CA approved CATs."

Woohoo! Of course passed without issue except...

The CARB sticker for the SC that I got from @beno was for the 4.7s. Doh!

What color is the interior door trim, specifically where the power mirror buttons are.

Did some snow camping!

I'm the pretty one.

Good times,
Salue

Yesterday along the Front Range, especially up here North of Fort Collins, was a snow day. Guess it counts as a weekend. My parents live up in the foothills on a very steep, narrow, and curvy dirt/gravel road. Thought I'd go break some tracks for them. We had a consistent 16" of snow, drifts over 40".

 

[Diggs84]

@Salue You able to lend muscle to put on my bumper this weekend?

 

[TZ62]

Not the weekend, but this was where I parked at work Tuesday morning. There's a 100-series behind the tree and a 120 hiding behind Mark's blue 80. Only thing missing was Kyle's white 80.

We don't get snow here. Only mud and sand.
