Hood latch is JB welded beyond belief, and the tires been replaced.

Now the extra bullshit.......
Axle boots torn and starting to leak on the drivers side, and the mudflaps were anything but plug and play. The mudflaps are for an EG, not an EG with EK sideskirts. So its been an afternoon of modding. So far I've only got the drivers side finished, still have the other side to go.

I've already had 3, 32oz Gatorade's. I've been pouring sweat for the past few hours. You'll die out here if you dont stay hydrated. :o

Most houses have air conditioned garages, but I'm in a townhouse with only covered parking, so I'm out of the sun, but not the heat. :thumbdown:

:lol: And a good hooter it was!! :thumb:

Hmmmmmm, the relay, :roll: I didnt even consider it as being the problem :? , see I always go for the worst thing first, and somtimes skip over the obvious/simple solution. :lol:

I'll start with the relay, since it is cheaper than the pump. Good lookin out!! :thumb:

Yeah, I didnt do too bad on the tire. Through the shop I hang at I got it for $70, and then we just mounted and balanced, and I was out the door.

Come home to find a leaky axle!! :x

Ahhhh well, shit will come together eventually.

Shot to the shop to switch out the axle this morning, took all of 4-6 minutes!
So now all that remains is the fuel pump/pump relay situation, which I'll tackle sometime through the week.

Ahhhhhh back in business. 8)
