What did you do to your GMT today?

[HARDTRAILZ]

Showing it the 4x4 jamboree

 

[jpimp]

Blew the door speaker pumping NWA. haha (Well, finished it off really. It was already blown from the P.O.)

Now I get to shop for a new stereo

 

[AManders6]

Going to make the Voy a new part today at work

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

A periscope?

 

[AManders6]

Alas, no. But a new aluminum oil skid to replace the nasty cracked factory one that came with the truck

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Nice. I finally put my steel one back on last night

 

[AManders6]

Sweet. I'll upgrade to steel once this aluminum one goes out or when I finish the entire lifting process

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

I would run 1/4 inch aluminum and save weight

 

[AManders6]

That's exactly what the plate I'm making up today will be

 

[GrizzlyDippah]

It's coming together! Only got a few things left to do(intake, radiator, and washer tank).

 

[CaptainKD]

I stuffed more fast food wrappers into the door pockets. I know I'm not the only person that does this.

Mime would be granola bars and pay stubs

 

[jimmyjam]

Put some left over led strip to use

no

 

[Capote]

Checked bolts on all the calipers to make sure they're all torqued down tight as hell. New oil filter was leaking a little bit, tightened that as well. Also cleaned under the hood as good as I can get it for now

I did it right this time, held guide pin in place while torquing every bolt until it wouldn't tighten anymore.

yay now you WON'T DIE!!!!

 

[Capote]

Yeah.... still worried something will go wrong on the way to your place. It's got me all paranoid since I keep messing stuff up lately

 

[BlazingTrails]

Do me a favor and check all your lug nuts before you leave

 

[Capote]

Will do, only took the one wheel off. I was able to reach every other caliper from underneath.

 

[Fire06]

With jack stands right

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Drove it on this beautiful morning

 

[Fire06]

Drove to my parents and it rode so fine

 

[qsp01]

Replaced a leaking power steering cooler ... went with the Dorman aluminum version. Hardest part was getting the four lower clips out of the bumper oh except for dealing with those factory hose clamps especially with all of the oil coating the pliers I was using. Was able to push the plastic air deflector out of the way so all I had to remove was the grill and the bumper cover.

Here's some shots I took:

That's what I did with mine today, drove it to work and back home.

Swapped the factory stereo back into the dash tonight, my JVC HD deck fritzed out and I can't get it to work. I bought a new battery the other night and installed it with the doors closed and locked. I attached the POS and then the Neg, and all heck broke loose, horns blowing and headlights on, big spark from the NEG cable to the battery. The radio worked when I pulled up to the Auto Zone for the battery, I installed the new one and it stopped working. Wondering if it got damaged with a power surge or something. Checked the fuse on the back of the radio and it's fine, the fuse in the truck for the radio is fine too. The factory deck works fine now. I guess the JVC might just be a gonner. Hopefully not, I'll try and get it going tomorrow on the bench with a battery charger power source.

 

[mcsteven]

Checked oil, all ok.

 

[Hatchet]

Won some Mickey Thompson tires at the jamboree today. Brand new 35s coming.

 

[AManders6]

Time for interior painting stage 2

 

[DJones]

Fixed my squeaky brakes and found this:

It hasn't worked in a while, so I think I will remove it until I get a new one. I also have a handful of parts that keep the shoe in.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Cleaned it out

 

[AManders6]

Finished painting the second slew of interior pieces and reinstalled them. Also fixed my front driver side and passenger interior door panels

[Blckshdw]

Rewired my subs to take the stress off the speaker wires due to the new position of the box. Put my cargo area panels back in after troubleshooting my rear view camera issues last week.

 

[AManders6]

I think may may start buying up the components for Operation Lift the Voy tonight

 

[smt 59]

Got the hood all cleaned up and ready to put on the new bug deflector then the neighbor came over. Will install tomorrow when they are all at work.

 

[GrizzlyDippah]

Finally got my motor in! Minor water leak. Gotta get a water pump and she'll be good to go

 

[Hatchet]

Relied on some awesome friends/members to save my ass again. Broke down coming home from the jamboree. 85 miles from home. Erikss drove out and dropped off a car dolly and then hotness towed me the rest of the way home when he got to me. (I left jamboree before him) so 3 hour ride turned to 7 hours. But again some of the best friends I could ever ask for.
