Well we thought that the belt was the problem, but we stopped on the Side of 95 at a rest area and put a new alternator on it

I am just wondering where a good place to meet would be? Maybe near Trader's World?

Got one of my two hood struts installed. Damn amazon seller only sent 2 or the 4 studs I ordered, and they were clearly labeled on the product page as having 2 pieces each, and I ordered 2. Seller better not try and weasel out of this one.

I could meet you halfway somewhere.

Yeah should have probably taken it to your muffler guy muleskinner lol. Oh well, at least I can bolt and bolt the parts now as they fail or rust.
You said you wanted $10 for the manifold you have? I will take you up on that offer, I will just need to find a day when I can come down and get that from ya.

Looks like I'm headed to O'Reillies to get another alternator. The one I have is not even a year old and it's making all sorts of noise & the battery light is coming on every so often especially when I turn on the head lights. The belt squeals on the alt too sometimes.

Installed some more of my Four Green group buy parts. Replaced the upper and lower brake caliper bolts, rubber seal on rear wiper arm and hood lip. I wondered why I couldn't shut the hood easily any more. Had to really push down to make it catch. I have to get a refrigerator carton to lie down on. Avella e-brake install next.Last edited by bravekozak; 04-04-2014, 06:18 AM.

I may be screwed and end up having to spend another $100 on this exhaust and get a cat. =/
I just can't find any pipes that will fit in nice and snug into the oem pipes.
I plan on taking Blue there too once we figure out some other problems it has.
If interested, pm me and I will give you his number ..... He is in Kentucky.Last edited by muleskinner; 04-03-2014, 10:20 PM.
