    antenna grommet. It took ~35 mins. I kept trying to force it on with the antenna in place but it would never fully go on. Then my lazy ass took the antenna off and it went on in 2 seconds.

    Spent a good 3 hours trying to get the pin in on the shift selector rod after replacing the sponge.

    Bleeding the cooling system, for some reason last time, it took forever before I finally got all the air out. Normally never have a problem with it.

    Control arm, the stud for the inner ball joiint snapped in the subframe.

    Four hours of hammering from the top did nothing. Dropped the subframe in 30 minutes and took me three swings (and some torch action) with the hammer and it was out .

    Not looking forward to installing the CAB

    did a steering rack swap, and now that THAT part's done my serpentine belt tensioner is stripped so I'm needing a new adjusting bar or a shorter belt.
