Looked at it, thought about washing it, then washed the bike and went for a ride instead haha.

 

replaced the ignition switch after work. for a dealer flat rate time of 1.5 hrs it took me about 3. but some of that was trying to hunt down a really small female torx bit.

 

I really should have just done my repair research in the tech forums and avoided anything else around here. Before joining I had never thought about doing half the stuff I now have planned, and I feel kinda guilty if I go a week without doing something on the thing

 

Lol Wyzard... that's what this place is for.
Today err yesterday (being lazy) I got the 2 lower ball joints, PS upper ball joint & the PS upper bushings replaced. Picked it up... steering wheel / (angled like that) lol.
Took it in today for a front end alignment.... omg... you don't know what you got till it's gone!
I knew it was pushing into corners, I knew it was hurting mileage, I knew it looked just plain stupid with the front tires \ / or how ever.
But wow, having the steering wheel centered & the truck goes that way because that's normal & not me correcting the misalignment? Yeah that's magical lol.

 

I got this pretty lady to assist me with a certain job tomorrow lol.



Basically, need a breaker bar to take out the bolts already in there so I can put on meh diffy skid plate. I tried with a 3/8 ratchet and sockets, but not enough leverage. So I wd-40'ed the bolts and tomorrow I'll use meh new 3/8 breaker bar.

 

Good luck! I prefer my impact in those situations... usually makes quick work of it. At least, it does when it's charged...and doesn't snap the bolt.

 

You have a cordless battery powered impact wrench? What brand is yours? All the cordless or electric corded that I have found don't have enough umph!

 

Yup. I have a Goodyear one I got from Pep Boys a few years ago, and damn do I love it!

 

I finally got my Sunroof working on my 97 Blazer ZR2.. Now have to find the front air deflector for the sunroof

 

took the running boards off as well as the trim above the wheels yesterday and put gas in it
