New batteries and voltage regulator and back in business!

Just wanted to thanks everyone here that contributes and all of the DIYs! I never knew an alternator has a regulator that wears over time. Both my batteries were at the low end of life so I replaced them first but still got the battery warning and all the other convenience warnings. I monitored my voltage while driving and it was bouncing around from 11s to 15s and I found the thread on replacing the voltage regulator so I gave it a shot. Back on the road again after a quick swap!

Thanks again Mbworld I wouldn't know about any of the little tricks when it comes to replacing parts if it weren't for this forum!

In a hole! LoL I wanted to make the dyno day at rage-tek and of course.. my best friend is having a kid soon and wanted the family at their shower..in cape canaveral. Damnit!! I just realized I have my eurocharged pulley/tune sitting in my garage for over a year now!!! blasphemy!

On a side note... I touched an F150s tow ball with the front of the merc and put a crack in my front bumper (long day and story that was) But now I have a suvneer bumper in my garage that needs paint . You know of any decent paint places around here? Never had anything painted before.
