Ordered some retrofit fogs. Thinking of going to xb 35 watt bulbs because Philips 85122 don't have the tingly cute blue hue on the cutoff line when it hits the road signs. Also ordered a new third brake light to paint red and then smoke, red hellas are starting to be old plain sight to me.

No pics been too lazy to upload as well...and school keeping me busy still...

 

ordered a mag-hytec diff cover and a set of tow mirrors. tried ordering a gryphon but their website wouldn't let me ship to my address....or any address i tried for that matter. not sure if there is something up with the website or what. waiting on an email back from them to see what the deal is

 

^ I thought PHP stopped selling Gryphons? But they've been going through "issues" for a while, unfortunately.

 

they still sell them on the website. according to the site anyways....I've been looking into the gryphon for a while now and PHP actually just had their website completely redone not too long ago. its much nicer than the old one. but now it has me wondering

 

I can't remember why I think/thought they stopped selling them for some reason. Probably wrong and thinking of them discontinuing an older Edge product.

 

Buy a used Gryphon and have a custom file made for it if that's the case. Last spring I had them revise my tune and I had it ready in under a week.

 

heard back from them today and we got it figured out. maybe a bug on their new website so i ordered it directly through the rep i spoke with. to php customer service

 

Ordered a few things today. 24 rockers/lash adjusters. Still have a slight tick that's driving me nuts. Figured if I'm tearing into it I'll do all of them. Going to order a coil set as well. Also looking at trans rebuild kits. My 2-3 shift is awfully slow these days. But I'm going to get the engine figured out before that.

Any good places online for trans rebuild kits? I've checked out Oregon performance transmission.

 

What did I do to mine today? Cleaned it up inside and out. It's going to the dealer tomorrow and probably won't be coming home. There's not a thing wrong with the old 2004 Wedgewood Blue and Sand Supercrew, she's been a mighty good rig in every one of the 131,000 miles. But since I'm mostly retired now, the wife is going to be retiring around January, we think we wanna go see our girls and grand baby. I'd rather do it in a new one. So I'm going to see a friend that owns a dealership and he has several that are attractive to our wants and needs. By noon tomorrow, I should be in a new one. But I just can't make up my mind which one.....STX SCrew, XLT Extended cab, Platinum SCrew......maybe a Schwinn for 2.

 

Wash and waxed today, did a good cleaning with the shop vac because I parked under a tree and now its home to thousands of ants. Put some traps in the truck to get the rest cause I couldn't get them all. They were behind the doors, in the dash, under all exterior weatherstripping...everywhere.

 

Hmmm...

 

No more bug guard?
I like it.

 

Your grill is calling for a black and silver Ford emblem man. Oh, and so is the tailgate!

 

Flows sooooo much better without the Bug shield.

 

I've really been meaning to take it off for a while now. It just always slipped my mind. It does look way better. Thanks! I do plan on getting some black and silver emblems. Not quite to the top of the list yet.
