I was just excited to finally be able to drive it again.

 

[RayGumm]

From his build thread.

[emoji16]well thank you may03lt, and shadow, with the addition of a JBL GTO 3ez this is how the seperation is happening, im goin activewith the amps for now later there will be a rockford 360.3 processor added, but here it goes

The top row left to right is a gto 804, it will be on the front doors, the front channels are running the 6" midrange and tweeter, the back channels are on the 8" midbass... Themiddle amp is a gto 504, this is actually bridged on the back doors for the 6" midrange, then the amp thats GOING to the left is a gto 3ez this is a 3 channel amp a 2 channel with a 500 watt monoblock, the front 2 channels are on my jbl 3" in the dash and the monoblock is gonna power the P3 shallow 10's in the front doors & the p3 shallow 8's in the rear doors, all of which are dual 4's so final impedence is 2 ohm on the monoblock side, now the bottom row is a set of gto 1001's one on each sub at 2 ohms, the power series jbl's are temporary, i am going with rockford T1 12's

 

[ghenny440]

Indeed there is[emoji16] the head unit is a kenwood ddx 790

It deff is a book carlton[emoji12]

 

[Aarkon]

Nice setup man I love how clean it looks

 

[Rogue92]

I went to bang out the fill plug on my rear differential to loosen it up in anticipation of my new differential fluid getting here tomorrow night....and got squirt with differential fluid so I smell lovely now. Either someone overfilled it big time with the tube or I shouldn't have jacked it up on the same side of the plug (which shouldn't cause that)....or it somehow sucked up water over the winter or when I went through some pretty deep, nasty muddy water last year.

Either way, did I mention yet I smell like Dif fluid?

 

[triz]

Changed my transmission fluid and cleaned the throttle body.

 

[blazinlow89]

I drove the TB.

Nice rack.

 

[Playsinsnow]

Also drove it for the first time since the weekend. Her tranny is out. Haven't figured the door ajar thing out yet. It goes off intermittently and it might be the beginning of the end of DDM because my seat memory went unresponsive for a few minutes. Drives like a champ still.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Drove it through the woods

 

[Boricua SS]

Taking the beaSSt out for her wkly fun. Gas prices just went up to $4.19 a gallon putting me at $4.39 since the beaSSt takes 93 octane and I have to fill her up since she's on empty

You better get hip to only putting in a quarter of a tank at a time, since it's not your DD!!

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Keep it full. I try not to leave mine below half...

 

[Matt]

Thought about washing it.

 

[jimmyjam]

looks like my headers have been cooking my paint! lol maybe ceramic coating isn't such a bad idea after all

and judging by the smell, i have a feeling its cooking the steering boot through the header wrap

 

[ghenny440]

Finished up the last of my doors today... Gotta say i am really proud of how they came out

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Put the lights back on the roof rack.

 

[kjkim93]

Gave it a wax for the family wedding this Sunday. Can't arrive in a dirty dusty car. And passed 97,000 miles today

[Aarkon]

Finally had a little tie to give her a hand wash and decided to name her darkness

 

[mike_k]

Cleaned her out and filled up. Never thought I'd be so happy to see 16 mpg again lol

 

[yodaddy4200]

Just about creamed out some idiot in a little Cavalier, He was going the opposite way and pulled a u-turn and he didn't see me cause he was behind someone I guess. idiot drivers I swear.

The worst part, my two year old was in the back seat. Screw the car I was worried about my little girl. If she would have went to the hospital... They better send an ambulance for his ass as well!

I have to say I'm very impressed with the stock brakes. I was only going 35-40 in a 35 zone. It seemed like I stopped instantly.

 

[CaptainKD]

Washed it, cleaned the K&N filter, polished the tail pipe and rims and applied some Rain-X to the windows.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Finally got slide fixed on brakes. No squeal is good!

 

[CaptainKD]

Ended up going the whole nine and clay bar and waxing it too. She's a sexy bitch now.

 

[kjkim93]

Drove her to the mechanic. Apparently the engine mounts are starting to collapse. [emoji58]

 

[Rogue92]

I changed out the rear differential fluid and filled her up with some Royal Purple 75w-90, and attempted the front...but couldn't get the fill plug off (need a bigger breaker bar...maybe next weekend).

The old fluid was REALLY nasty...changing her out for the first time at 104,500 miles. The wise words of Obi-Wan Kenobi would describe how dirty it was, "You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy...."

Oh, and for the first time since I bought it three years ago, I dropped the spare tire no problem and put it back up! In Wisconsin...where salt is heavy and the winters are long.

Hopefully yours play nicer than mine, and you don't need a slide hammer to get the arms off. That was a PIA!

Unfortunately the wiper arms did not play well. I tried to wiggle, pull, and pry. Would not budge. I assumed Auto Zone or Advanced Auto would have a battery terminal puller, but no. I ended up ordering one from Amazon. Maybe I will get to this week after next.

Rear step pad came out nice with four coats of plasti dip on it though.

 

[yodaddy4200]

I used a pair of 90 degree pliers to pry mine off. They were a bitch tho.

I bought a cheap battery terminal puller online, and my wiper arms broke it!! Hopefully the one you get will be good enough to get the job done.

 

[yodaddy4200]

Mine were so dingy I wasn't taking no for an answer!! But yea I almost got discouraged!

I read a lot of reviews and 90% of the views for the terminal puller was people using them to remove wiper arms on a variety of vehicles. I did come across a wiper blade puller tool, but it had horrible reviews. Last six reviews said the tool broke on first use. I hope the one I bought will at least last for two uses.

This is the one I picked up, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000I14RY6/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

How many times you plan on painting them? Make it one and done.

How many times you plan on painting them? Make it one and done.

One time is the plan my friend. Four or five coats of paint and six coats of clear. This issue has been time and now that I did have the time, the wiper arms were a PITA and of course I did not have the tool I needed to get them off. Hopefully I can paint them during my vacation after we get back from Omaha, Nebraska.

If it was not for the paint fading and coming off then I would leave them alone. The driver's side wiper arm on the back side (facing the driver) is down to bare metal and stares me in the face. I am a little OCD and everything has to be perfect.

Needless to say, I had to order some new plastic wiper arm bolt covers, Mine were not so easy to pop off and got damaged. Those are on the way along with my driver's seat trim piece which has a couple broken tabs,

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Drove it to grab some firewood

Might as well spray your wiper cowl while you've got them off.

Luckily I had enough downtime to pull all my faded plastic parts and shoot them with some gloss black. Have gotten lots of comments from coworkers and people around the office who think my truck is much newer than an 05, since all the plastic parts look brand new.
