Replaced side mirror that I broke......

 

Nothing much, just changed the oil and bought some driving lights. Not going to be able to get around to installing the lights today though...

 

Converted my KC daylighters yo HID. the color is 4300k.



This pic shows the difference between HID and the 130 watt kc bulbs.


Both converted


Both on the garage door at noon thats just how bright they are

 

nothing at all getting washed tomorrow thought. and just maybe a repaint in its future

 

Moved my C.B. to my overhead console and routed the wires and coax above the headliner.

buy yourself a 5/8 sparkplug socket with the universal joint on it, remove the inner rubber boot-this gives you an extra 1/2" depth (or so), use 2 12" and 1 6" extensions, turn your wheels all the way to the right, and go @ 'er from behind the left tire.

easy as pie.

and no busted knuckles. although you'll soon forget a few of your choice curse words, from lack of use.

awsome plugs! and they last forever. in fact, i think in the 4 years (yes 4 years) i had them in my Jimmy, i only had to regap them once.

although i still checked them every Spring & Fall.


today, well actually yesterday (since i started typing before midnight), i replaced the right hub.

sounded like it had square bearings in it!

also foundout that the creaking/clunking bj noise i've been hearing for the last month (or so) aren't the factory originals-they're bolted in WITHOUT GREASE NIPPLES INSTALLED!!!!

so it looks like whoever did it for her (the original owner) obviously never knew what they were doing. that's pretty bad that they were replaced long before i bought the truck w/158K on it.

oh yeah, i'm gonna be doing the front sway bar links too. they looked pretty dry 'n flakey.


oh well, @ least the truck is the colour of money-'cause i'm sure gonna be dumping some into it in the near future!

guess it's about time i actually had to invest some $$$$ into it.

 

Got stuck in the mud in the field that everyone parks in for the Putnam County Fair. I really need to get my front gears and a locker in the rear... Blazers never looked better, all covered in mud.

 

Went to the Michigan blazer gtg and watched everyone except eztec get stuck and pull them out. mine made great storage while we were on the trails haha

 

Just came across this thread, so here is a summary of what I've done to my '01 LS 2Dr since I bought it about a month ago:

Viper remote entry alarm system

New cap/rotor/plug wires/spark plugs/pcv valve/fuel filter

K&N CAI system

Repaired rear window actuator
Replaced rear window lift struts
Replaced seat recliner handles

Today I plan on crawling under it and changing the differential & transfer case fluids, chassis/cv/u-joint lube and transmission filter/fluid change.

 

Ahh so basically use a swivel socket with a few long extensions. The one thing i did forget to do the otherday was move my tire all the way to the right. Didn't think about a swivel although i was staring at it wondering if i should give it a go. In 3 months ill try it out then, hopefully it works for me. My neices wasn't to keen on hearing me cussing so much :P Thanks
