[HARDTRAILZ]

Might be getting a oil bath today if we font take it our to the land

 

[Matt]

Replaced the passengers side low beam driver...I got light!

Thanks Kev.

 

[jimmyjam]

Red velvet cake

 

[Blckshdw]

Yeah, that looks pretty damn good to me.

Did a lil'dipping today

Lets see some daylight pics.

 

[gpking]

I got some fog lights.
"Wait, aren't they those cheap Chinese LED lights off of eBay?"

Nope! These suckers are deceiving; they're well built in a metal housing, but more importantly, they completely illuminate objects for about 1/8th of a mile at night. That's nearly as far as the high beams.

 

[Blckshdw]

Looks like it's about time for someone to put some clear corners in their headlights!

 

[sawicksted]

Got some mud on the tires!!

Actually a full undercoat!!!

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

That red bay is sweet.

I took mine bout for nice family cruise on some backroads

 

[Aarkon]

[jomulk56]

Filled it with coolant since I found out it was extremely low and mostly water...joy. Oh and I cleaned the engine bay and re oiled my K&N. Pretty exciting stuff I know.

 

[dmanns67]

So when is that exhaust resonator coming off and going in the trash

Looks like you could use some RedLine Tuning hood struts too

 

[smt 59]

Replaced rear lift gate shocks.that was easy.

 

[jimmyjam]

picked up heads (look amazing), dropped off at machine shop. 3+ hour round trip :/

Yeah, I walk around like I'm a bad ass... until I go to the machine shop and there is a billet big block sitting there...

I Have to agree w/ that

 

[Sparky]

Stopped at Autozone and got more power steering fluid and a length of 3/8" hydraulic/fuel hose. Used it to replace the low pressure line from the pump to cooler. Good thing really, as the line was just as rusty as I thought - I barely pushed on it and folded it up. Swapped the line, filled it up... and watched it drip

Appears it wasn't the line or connection leaking after all (though as mentioned the line needed replaced anyway), but rather the pump reservoir HOUSING is leaking at the seam I'm so ticked of now since I pulled my bad pump with a good reservoir, and swapped it with a good pump and bad reservoir, and the old unit is long since gone in the garbage

Of course it seems I can't just buy a reservoir but I have to get a whole pump with it

So... I think the next step I'm going to take is pull the pump out of the truck (again), clean all the oil/grease off the reservoir, and RTV the whole darn seam. That should seal it up!

Gahh!!

 

[gpking]

Put the TB up on my neighbor's lift. I figured I'd take a picture since it's never been on a lift before (on my watch).
Nothing was wrong, I just needed to wrap plastic conduit around my fog light wiring I ran a few days ago and SECURELY zip-tie it all to the back side of the air dam.
When you live in the lap of luxury, you don't need to shimmy underneath the vehicle in your gravel driveway wishing your service jack could go higher as you struggle to find space to move your arms, just throw it on the lift.

Reppin' it with that GMT sticker.

To do still:
-Wash that rear window for the trillionth time (dirt road live-ers understand)
-Spray paint the rear wiper arm black

 

[02TrailBlazer]

Installed some Moog 81069's in the rear, got around 2" of lift from them, surprisingly easy to put in since I already had the longer rear shocks. No unbolting of anything necessary. And I removed some ugly door moulding.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Drove it the 67 miles to work.

 

[Boricua SS]

Bet you loved every mile of it

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Yes'em....but I need the components in the front doors asap

 

[MAY03LT]

It might not seem like a big deal but this has been bugging me for years. My pickup now has a spare tire mounted where it should be, all of the spare tire tools, and the bed is ready for a toolbox. Of course, the tool box is going to be slightly modded with smd strips and tapped into the instant trigger of the alarm. Chyeah.

Just received my new 194, 3157, 1156, and 212 5630 SMDs. They are way brighter than the 5050 SMDs that I had installed. I wish the 3157s would turn completely off when using the turn signal while the parking/headlights are on. They seem to dim slightly so not much of a flash. I assume this is a common issue when using a 3157 amber LED in place of a 3757 incandescent bulb

When I had my switchback LEDs installed, the amber would turn completely off and blink since the parking light was 5k.

One of the reasons I'm glad that my wiring is all jacked up for my signals, the LEDs I had in looked like they were at 75% brightness for running lights so they weren't all that noticeable when they needed to be.

[dmanns67]

Finally was able to wash it. Bugs around here are horrible. As soon as you staty driving your front end if covered

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Got the new drilled n slotted n ceramic rear brake setup to be installed

 

[IllogicTC]

Greased all door hinges and latches. Also grabbed some brake grease while I was out but it's starting to sprinkle yet again because Mother Nature likes consistency, so I'll have to wait on hitting my slide pins up.

 

[jrSS]

helper bag install is 100% complete. Ride is really good with 10 psi in each bag. No more bottoming out due to lowered suspension. Looks factory!

 

[sawicksted]

re-torqued wheel lugs

What's the second picture trying to show?

 

[Aarkon]

Looks like the switch im guessing for the air

 

[Mounce]

Oh I thought that was the latch area for the little door

 

[BlazingTrails]

There are 2 air valves for him to add air and check the pressure for the bags. They are the same as tires. I like that location a lot. Most people put the in the back bumper somewhere and they get dirty and leak. Nice install bro
