Stared at mine last night, dropped my new engine crane at my dad's (where the truck is), can't wait for sunday so i can try and set the engine timing and see if that helps my engine knock.

Re-located my front bumper after doing the body lift last week. I think it is a unique idea by mitsubishi to use shear bolts on every single component that is located under the truck ! ! !

Treated my old girl to a new fuel filter and filter head just the oil and filter to do , fitted a mitsubishi upgrade chip and am well impressed. The twilight zone at low revs has gone and its a lot more drivable around town , just have to wait and see if lunches the engine . Only have the actuator on the axle to look at and I am ready for winter

@123hotchef the starter wouldn't engage properly to start the truck. And couldn't wait for Mitsubishi to get the spares in as its my daily drive and needed for work.
