Got the compressor replaced as well as the expansion valve and condenser and cleaned out the lines. Threw a can of Freon in it and it’s cooling better even after sitting for a month while I was in Connecticut. Still need to get a proper evac & recharge to get things to the right level but it’s...

Sorry bud that unit went to the scrap yard a month or two back

Been a while without any update so I figured I’d post a little something. Alpha got picked up a couple days after getting paid for it and surprisingly enough they left my jackstands. Certainly did not expect them to still be there knowing the wrecker drivers in town. Also been working on...

Sold. Please delete

Well went by and saw my old boss to try to pin down my ac issues with the small one. Strangely enough, when I sucked down the Freon there was about 3oz left in the system but after running a vacuum for 20 minutes it held tight with no leaks. Not entirely sure where the Freon went if there...

Welp, little update from this week. Decided to pull the spare off the Alpha to put on the ‘06 until I can find a matching wheel. Without paying much attention I just grabbed my 19mm figuring it would have a regular set of lug nuts holding it on - nope - it had 3 different wheel locks on the 3...

More progress. Did the resistor install this morning. Now the temp adjusts as it should Problem 2 solved Replaced the expansion valve and used an add a can to check. Can see some grime in the high side port but nothing screaming obvious for reasoning for failure. AC blows nice and cold now...

Minor update Well woke up today and Texas chose violence with 100+* weather with 70% humidity so I chose to back out of pulling carpet and sound deadening today. Instead I choose to try to figure out my air conditioning issues since we’re moving into a nice hot summer here in north Texas...

Tips arrived today. Unfortunately they weren’t quite what I wanted ordered but after hanging them up for a test look I actually liked how they look so I had the shop zip them on and call it a day. They look slightly big right now but I think once I get a spare mounted they will look more...

Exhaust is 95% finished. The tips I had the shop order didn’t end up showing up but they ran the piping - dual in into flowmaster 40 series with dual straight out at the bumper. 3.5” black tips will hopefully arrive within the next day or two and I’ll swing back by for them to slap them in...

Well, a little behind schedule but the H3 is back at my place now! Had to wait a few extra days to get a ride from my place to the ex’s where the truck has been sitting (about 45 minutes one way). Drove great all the way, and boy what a difference with the 3 extra cylinders when trying to...

Got the oil changed today and hung the skid plates under the truck. I realized I forgot to keep the front bumper bar for the front skid plate so I have to do without it unfortunately. I started pulling the seats and carpet out of the Alpha since mine have seen better days. I’ll end up using the...
