Yeah, I have one of those spacious outdoor garages too. Sucks.

I installed the tails I've been waiting for. Took a half hour (10 minutes to figure out removal of that first door/gate shock to get the lower screw off). Will be at the car wash shortly and then a few pics.

Well.... got this done about a week ago. Now I'm buying a '98 Blazer LT 4dr 4x4 with a new transmission and a spun rod bearing for $500. Figured I'd fix it up and either keep it for a spare or sell it, dunno yet.








Can't imagine why it was leaking?!?!?!!!!
