So I've been bothered by my pathy for sometime now, I couldnt put my finger on it but then it hit me! Rust looks like s***!

I noticed the suspension link was little rusty and it was bothering me

So I grabbed some sand paper and spray paint and went to town.

It was just a quick 20 Min job but I painted both of them and now I feel much better about myself. I did it with the wheels still on, but sometime ill do it the right way and prime it, and paint it again, along with other rusting things such as drum brakes...

Oh and funny thing, I live in New Hampshire and last Dec. we had a pretty bad ice storm where trees, and telephone polls, and everything else came down, we were without power for about three weeks, and after that the only internet supplier to our town decided it was too expensive to fix all the lines so they just kinda left... But now we got Verizon highspeed dsl, this is a huge thing for our town. Other than when our two street lights don't work, lol.

But eitherway I'm glad to be back, I've been searching the forums, and followed your guys walkthroughs on the fuel filter, and throttle body cleaning, i went ahead and got new spark plugs and wires. changed my oil got some sea foam as well!

I'll see if I can't find some pics of the ice storm, and of my pathy, If you guys wanna see that too.

^^ Mr. Negative right on cue. I guess in every family there is at least one relative that everyone puts up with.

VERY GOOD JOB BUDDY ,BUT IN THIS WORRLD OF STEEL YOU HAVE TO DO IT EVERY YEAR IN ORDER TO PROTECT YOUR RIDE,ALSO DO NOT USE LIFTING KIT MORE THAN 2 INCH,DUE TO SAFETY ON EXPRESSWAY.
