When'd your X get backed into Bill?? Did the driver cash out or did his insurance handle it?

Actually it was about a year ago when the crash happend. Since the whole front end was aftermarket (our) insurance company wouldn't do anything for us but put it back to stock.
We had to sue the trucking company to get the money to fix the front end. I got our estimate from a aftermarket parts shop, Then cashed the check and fixed it all myself and saved a few bucks on labor.
When it pushed in the bumper, it shifted the grille into the lights breaking off the tabs holding them in. So other then the bumper and the really small dents on the grille it didn't look too bad. The timeing worked out cause the APC lights were starting to yellow.

I've decided that Xochi was in cahoots with the gas stations to rid me of my bank account. I still and love her.

I have the same fan installed on our Excursion,we use it as a pusher for AC condensor and if equipped an intercooler. It's very helpful when the temps reach over 100 degrees day after day.

I know it might be abit of work to gain a few degrees drop in the AC vents but I re-insulated the entire length of cold charge line running to the rear evaporator including all the cold lines in the engine compartment.
