I replaced the brakes on all four corners and rotated the tires.I found that one of the caliper bolts is frozen and causing uneven wear on the rr pads,I'll be heading to pick a part for a replacement caliper bracket.180,592 miles.( I'm documenting mileage so this forum will serve as my memory,I can't remember anything anymore ! ) Three tanks of gas since new fuel pump & no noticeable difference in performance or mileage. It failed while driving.

Was not done today, But all 3 lights are complete for the trailblazer (apparently trailblazer builds dont get much attention unless its from members who know you haha)

Hopefully will be putting the tails in tomorrow. 3rd brake light on Saturday or Sunday.

Those are bright enough to make it hard to see them. Are they already in a housing that will be mounted?

Yup, I got an OEM Trailblazer tail light housing, cut them opened and mounted everything in there.
They are extremely bright.
Thog has seen these types of LEDS in person.
The reverse lights were also done. I wont have a picture of those until I get them installed tomorrow

Got all the wiring done today, Would have got the tails in but ran into some issues.
Passenger reverse light only half worked, fixed it. Running lights did not work at the trailer harness, figured out the issue, Will put in tails tomorrow.

This state would probably throw you in jail for running tails that bright, LOL!
