Coolant flush and refill
Flushed the radiator and block as the tag said the coolant was last changed in 2008. Drained and refilled with water, brought the temp up to 180 degrees, thermostat opened, drained and repeated again. The existing coolant(green) and water was fairly clean. Added 9 Gallons of Fleetguard ES COMPLEAT 50/50 and one gallon of the full strength.
Then installed the new Super-Single spare tire, but all I had was the old G177 highway tire retainer plate which is much narrower. So I back over it with Zeus and it flattened the wings and now it fits fine and safely secures the spare. Added 2-2ton ratchet straps for for some added piece of mind.
Bolted a unused cup holder from my father's late wheelchair on the passenger side dashboard under the grab bar.
Installed (12) 5/8“ x 1 1/2“ bolts and lock nuts on each side of the frame where the tandem wheel spring hanger were.
