I was detailing when it hit. Had to shut the garage to keep the rain from splattering. FX got a nice bath though.

Ya we've got some crappy weather up here right now and it got the best of me. Lots of rain+dirt roads= my truck stuck in a ditch
It's supposed to freeze tonight so we are gonna try to get it out in the morning. Hopefully the frozen dirt might give me a little more traction to get it out, otherwise we are gonna have to call a tractor in to pull it out.

I'm here until the 27th, get back the 29th I think, then leave January 5th. I'd be free as early as this Thursday, since I'm going to Steve's on Wednesday for the tuning.

Jake, would be available able to change my bushings and coolant any time soon?

I probably need the clutch done at some point, but I'm not sure you'd be willing to do that.

Thanks for the info Jake. I have some bushings, but I might as well get the rest of the front bushings, so it will be a bit of time before I get them. Same goes for the clutch.

Would you happen to have any time just to change my coolant in the next few days? Any recommendations on what type of coolant I should get?
