Spent all day Tuesday working on my 87 GW doing some much needed repairs. Finally fixed the tailgate latch so it can open and close for the first time since I've owned it in 9 months. Also changed spark plugs + plug wires, which was a major chore. It was the first time I've ever did a plug change on a AMC motor and I'd like to say the AMC engineers in the late 80's were High!!! That was tighter than a subaru!!!
But the problems came this morning when I woke up. I couldn't get out of bed. When I finally fell on the floor my hip felt like there was a lightning bolt shooting down through it into my knee and a hot knife stabbed into my lower back. Being a young 31 yrs old, I figured it would go away and I just slept funny, so I got ready for work. 3 hours into my shift I felt like I was going to die and told my dispatchers I was going home. Parked the truck and went straight to the doctor.
So thanks to fighting with AMC's fancy placement of the brake booster and heater core, I'm stuck on the couch for the next week all hopped up on Vicoden and muscle relaxers. Plus got a shot in the rear at the doc's office.
Pretty much sucks. I'm mad at my Jeep but I still love her.
