if it is the pump,just make sure its an ac delco.. or you'll be calling aaa back again.

My transmission wouldnt go into reverse yesterday morning before work. I tried 4 times,finally it did. I drove it around for 20 minutes and checked fluid,level was fine. Between having no money and other issues i got a $5 bottle of that trans honey. disconnected a cooler line and drained some fluid out,dumped the honey in and checked the level,which is fine. I drove it to work and around for the rest of the day. shifting has improved and reverse goes in quicker. fix in a can may of actually improved this time. Ive got to do a fluid change here soon.

Kinda hoping it lasts till i get my 5.3/4l60 swap.

Put a new air intake elbow hose in mine was cracking.

put in two new speakers in the front cause i had only one of the four actually playing!!!!! so now i have 2 out of four and hopefully by the end of the week ill be putting the others in.

On a side note i picked up door pin and bushing kit, didnt get to it today, got a little late(difficulties with the speakers go figure). so hopefully get that fixed and not have that annoying up and down motion anymore on the damn drivers door.

just messing with you. as i used to say (in a 6 year olds voice) "its Mack, like the Truck!" haha.

i want to buy my old one truck back simply because there is still $600 of sound deadening in it but at the same time, that transmission was on its last leg and it had too many problems to be worth my time. So, i figure i'll wait until i graduate college (2014) and look for a 4x4 then. lift, motor swap, and huge system. thats my thoughts at least.

Well, I have a class on Friday, then the weekend is free! I'm going to try to install my cb radio and that massive whip this weekend. I just have to figure out where to mount the darn sucker. The whip would probably go on the bumper, but my tailgate drops down. I was thinking about either mounting it to one of the two roof rack pieces or the spare tire carrier (not sure if that is a good idea). Some more thinking is needed though lol. I'll research this tomorrow more and figure out something.
