What did you do to your GMT today?

[Aarkon]

Ya luckily it was me who drove it to work just left to go home get a quarter mile down the road then 3 knocks and it was chugging at the light said cylinder 1 misfire checked everything couldn't see much with the phone light but its not gonna be cheap im sure and I dont have a garage anymore to look into it better

Bad coil pack maybe? Sounds very similar to what happened when one of mine went bad.

 

[Mounce]

Dang man, did you buy it from a dealer or an individual? If a dealer, I'd dispute it somehow.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Got it ready for commuter duty tomorrow. Cleaned it out n aired up the tires.

No I used a new wire and plug then put in a new pack still nothing
And ya Garth im going to take it in and then come back at them

What about if you bring the black up on the door to match the height of the front and rear bumpers

That way the line will be level from front to rear.

I'm not a fan of this look. Previously (2nd pic) it was at the top of the rock line (not sure what you call it. We called it orange peel). 3rd pic was before Mounce's suggestion of black trim & I darkened windows.

 

[mcsteven]

One update to the version I like. Made it much better

 

[Mounce]

I like the addition.

 

[DJones]

Changed engine oil.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Had a nice drive into work with the rig. Wish I could afford to do it everyday.

 

[BHAMER]

It was Sunday actually but I got the LEDS finished on the doors, much brighter now!

 

[BlazingTrails]

Dropped the rear 1 1/4" and cut the exhaust loose and welded it back up to clear the axle. It was tapping it when I hit bumps.

Lets see

 

[BlazingTrails]

It looks just like it did when I first lowered it. When I pulled out the spare wheel and hoist it came up 1 1/4".

 

[Capote]

Looking upon how shamefully dirty it is, I'm sneaking in a wash after work, it looks embarrassing

 

[BlazingTrails]

:Iagree:

 

[mcsteven]

Mine needs a wash as well.

 

[Hatchet]

Mine needs a priest to banish the evil that now resides in it.

 

[Sparky]

If you don't want it I'll take it off your hands

 

[RayGumm]

Broke it doing some offroading:

Was in a really muddy rutted up pit and there was a pretty big stick that I didn't see that poked up behind the front pass wheel and wedged. As I continued to roll it pushed against that stupid plastic coated side skirt thingie and bent it all to hell.

O well. I wanted a body lift anyways.. are the side skirt thingies usually removed with a body lift?

Edit: sorry bout rotation, it was oriented right on my phone gallery...

 

[BlazingTrails]

 

[Aarkon]

She got picked up on a trailer

 

[BlazingTrails]

Is that a good or a bad thing??

Damn man, looks like it is time for a lift

She got picked up on a trailer

Hopefully nothing major.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Skirts are optional any time. I cut mine with original suspension lift to fit tires

 

[smt 59]

Hooked up the code reader to her to see if I had any, engine is running smooth but shakes every so often. No codes??

Awesome. They are coming off entirely tomorrow after work. Problem solved!

Damn man, looks like it is time for a lift

I don't think you will like the way it looks.....

 

[RayGumm]

Maybe not. But I might like it better than a bent up side skirt. I am sure as sh!t not gonna buy a new one... sheesh. It will just motivate me to finally get some rock sliders...

 

[BlazingTrails]

They are just plastic though, and very cheap from a parts yard.....

 

[Grimor]

blasted the surface rust off the welds, 2 layers of self etching primer and 2 coats of flat black. tomorrow will do some sanding for a couple runs and 2 more coats of black. (and paint the spots where the chains are)

pic is of the primer

Key words: 'Just Plastic'. And if my ultimate goal is to have sliders.. then why would I buy more 'just plastic' to satiate a purely asthetic need? MUST MOD ALL THE THINGS!!! I thought you would understand this, Brandon...?

Of course I do Brody !!! With some slider it would probably look good, I'm all for individuality

Translation: "it's your money and truck, bro... :/"

Haha I'm just joshin ya. I know It'll look like crap til I get the sliders.. but like I said.. thems there is good motivation!

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

I like them off better. I hate the cheap plastic down there. Metal is paint matched behind too.

 

[RayGumm]

Done and done. pics in a bit.

DOUBLE POST SO SUE ME!!

So i got one of the bloody skirts off. I like the way it looks. Wifey hates it. Phones nearly dead, pics mañana. Peace!

Topped-ff the coolant level...

It appears I have a very slow leak in the radiator core,
where a Firestone Mechanic damaged it while dragging the e-clutch out of it...

 

[mcsteven]

I dusted the drivers seat with my pants.

 

[Mounce]

Polished the steering wheel with my hands.
