What Did You Do to your Vehicle Today?

i got half of my tranny put back together. what a pita it is shimming the shafts and lining up shift rails. (maybe since its my first time) im just glad im on the home stretch now.

I hear ya, been there done that. The rails suck balls to get back in properly.
 
Today I cleaned up the engine bay. To start, I rerouted my intercooler heater hoses, put on the second stock heat exchanger I initially got with the blower kit. Repolished the blower kit. Changed the blower belt(that was as fun as peeing on a wall socket). I also cleaned/tidied up some much needed wiring that wasn't up to par when I initially installed the blower and gauges. I also changed out the brake pads with zeck's pads and purged the brake fluid(2 years old). I also removed the windshield wipers and put 5/8" vacuum caps over the silver gears, It was a tight fit but a little WD-40 and the sun streched 'em out. I think that's it. maybe some pics tommorow.
 
Not much

Had Stingray(Dave thanks) install my antitheft and I did one side of caltrac:p it does sit completely level in the back now:marchmellow: left side traction bar right side caltrac:argh: Is all I gotta say about that shit.
 
Isn't David just the best?!

David as soon as I get back from the Keys, I need:

Power steering lines installed, new bushing for sway bars, remote the battery, install the front facia skid plate, and new pumpkin bolts...

I will need you for at least two hours...

Went to a local show/dyno event. I didn't place but had a ball.
 
I've been attacking mine with some Meguiar's polishing compound (SwirlX) and scratch remover (ScratchX). It had a bad case of the spiderwebs in the clear. I'll start on the waxing this evening. I could have done 2 cars for the time I spent on this truck. There's a lot of sheet metal going on...
 
finally installed my X metal (Yes boomer's !) drop kit I had stashed somewhere for a loooong time:D . McGaughy's are out.:p
 
Today I looked at a Black 5" MBRP tip to swap out the chrome on with....

Compared to the MCgaupheys that boomer kit is the bomb!!!!

I had the MC kit on mine, loved the looked despised the ride! But I rode in my buddy Zolie's ride with the boomer kit and it was awesome.!
