Nothing on the Blazer but I did just place the order for some new Monroe Sensatrac shocks and struts all the way around and new pads and rotors for the Murano! Tomorrow I will figure out what tires I'll be ordering and get them ordered. Then I'll wait for my deliveries and get everything installed and a new alignment. Best part is its all on the company dime

Need a new t/c mount. Apparently the rear u-joint clipped the floor at one point last wheeling trip...

Picked up a gates belt today that is 7/8th inch longer than the factory belt on the jimmy. hopefully it will be the right size for the new alt.

Installed a new HID kit. It's by "Lumens".

Seems quite a bit better than my HIDExtra kit. A lot more sturdy and they fire up almost instantly. Even better cause I bought them locally and have warranty.

And I get to sand the VHT off my signals cause it looks like butt. Might go pay big bucks to get a shop to do it.

If you ever have a problem with them, get a kit from HID Kits | Aftermarket Headlights | HID Conversion | KBcarstuff.com they are at the top 2 for kits next to The Retrofit Source online: headlight upgrades for all applications literally the 2 best kits you can get next to getting OEM d2s HID's
I have a kit from xenondepot in the jimmy, and its unbelievable quality. well built, sturdy, quick to fire up, EXACT color that it should be, and an amazing warranty. most kits from these places, the bulbs are known to last 5+ years. More for the ballasts.

as for VHT.. Man, I wish you lived closer, i would get that done for you, and have it look great, what did you not like about them. I would lay down the vht for you, and put a nice coat of urethane clear over the top to make it as shiny, if not, more shiny than the OEM signals.

Found the leak in the radiator. Front top plastic has a small crack... Filled the anti back up. Hopefully I'll order it mon or tues and have it by Friday. I'm going with this one More Information for PRO 8011826 unless anyone has a better suggestion?

Mounted my RS232 to USB adapter. No more ODB connector needed. Still have it in there, just in case. It runs in conjunction with TunerPro RT, so I can monitor the truck.

Pulled the rest of the carpet out (one little patch in between the seats). Started prepping the floors for the lining.

Cleaned the wheels and tires.

Going to relocate my hood release cable. Only doing this, 'cause the cable broke and I had to shorten it. Not sure on mounting locations, yet.
