yesterday... installed new catalytic converter, replaced transmission position sensor, passed Safety inspection.

That cat was a pain in the *** to get out and replace with a new one, turns out the OEM one there was completely EMPTY inside - no wonder the emission test failed miserably lol!
Also having to take out the front drive shaft to replace the sensor on the transmission is a FAIL - wtf was GM thinking there? Tomorrow is oil change, weather permitting - drivers side lower ball joint, emission's re-test with a potential forecast of replacing 2 upstream O2 sensors....

Food for thought? should i convert my rear drum assembly over to the disk setup i've seen on a few blazers???

Replaced both front bump stops, greased the front end and trimmed the fender and trim I put on to stop my tires from rubbing.

emissions test = PASSED with new cat and oil change... numbers were retardedly low for limits and just disgusting compared to the failure numbers

Nitrogen Oxide PPM - limit 521ppm - 1st run 1864ppm fail - 2nd run 1ppm PASS, for example. the rest were similar for numbers as well

Fixed my bogging problem, it helps if you actually make sure the intake is on when you remove it.

Did the quad beam! Also found my fog light just ripped out with part of my housing still attached. Yay! Unexpected expenses!
