I use that rad hose because it doesn't suck flat. I put a spring in the lower hose. An yeah, it runs great. Ill take it up the block later. Me and...

Do that! ^^
I'm also going to remove the windshield squirters and lines. Any other suggestions to clean things up I'm down to consider. I do have new spark...

Here's a pic of everything all put back together. I'm gonna pressure wash everything and start painting accessories and small parts. The valve...
Sounds like a cool plan. Then you can run some of the stock 4 spoke 4wd rims and throw people off. They will think you have the 4 lug versions at...
