I replaced a couple ball joints, I had some low mileage spares sitting around and the boots on my factory ones were cracked, so it was a good time to swap them out.

Mounted the intercooler and ran the charge pipes. Prayed for warm weather so this snow will melt.

Replaced passenger side engine mount. Turns out the mount wasn't broken, it just sagged a lot. Made an immediate difference in vibration so I might just replace the driver side too.

While I was down there, I noticed the alignment was all over the place. No wonder my front tires are wearing unevenly..

I think I jinxed myself. Looked again and the red light was flashing indicating a bad battery. That may be from the -15 cold snap we had.

Anybody know if I'm hurting anything by leaving it flashing. Hope to get it inspected in April without losing the codes

Unplug the Tender, check/twist the connections between the tender and the battery, and plug it back in. You may have lost a connection.

Good tip. I actually did this yesterday and it worked for a while before the bad battery light started flashing again.

Did it again on your suggestion and it seems to be working for a few hours, We'll see if we get to full charge. Battery is 6 year old
