officially spent more on the truck this weekend than I should have

Went to get the condenser and grill guard. Turning the trip saved me some cash. So I went over to NAPA and got some 16 gauge wire and SPDT momentary switches to run for the window and door lock relays. Door panel clips (big improvement), two door hinge bushing kits (on Huntingguy's dad's advice, I was going to get a whole hinge, they do both hinges on a door) and a vented fuel cap(finally). I know there's something else, but I can't think of it.

Now I have to find the transmission cooler I need, so I can put it in with the condenser and get the grill guard on.

I'm thinking of getting some hi-temp valves, maybe like heater shut-off valves, and putting the higher-capacity cooler in parallel with the undersize one I have now, and being able to shut it off in the winter. Any thoughts on that idea?

A case of motor oil, that was it. 4 gallons. I think it's about time for another change.
