Sup,

So I broke down and ordered a set of sport headlights. So some time in the next month or so I am going to prepare a wiring harness and eventually get the headlights swapped out.

I did have some diesel leaking from the number three injector line at the head. It seemed to have gotten worse and started having a hard start issue. So I pulled the tube checked the oring and put some lube on the oring hoping to swell it up a little. Then keep cranking it down. I have already decided that next time I have to pull it off, going to have to replace one line and maybe the tube. So the leak stopped and I am happy for that.

Looking at getting injectors now, then bigger turbo in spring. Also going to repair the rust on the doors and repaint part of the truck. It had some stuff done when I got it and can't see going too crazy... but that could change!
