Stared at it for a while...

Could also be read smoked the engine

Added a deep pan and transmission thermostat bypass while I was changing the transmission filters.

Driver side inner tie rod is on the agenda for tomorrow. I skimped out and bought cheap ones when I rebuilt my front end. Didn’t get a year and a half out of it. Putting moog back in its place. I knew better.

Don't be surprised if the Moog stuff lasts about as long. They're not what they used to be. Not even close. My go-to for the last several years has been MevoTech Supreme or TTX if they're available for the application.

I appreciate the info. I didn’t know moog had declined.

Installed backups cause mine suckith.

Gotta wire the positive to the trailer harness still then I'll be done. But first, I gotta pack all this junk up and get my kiddo from school....

why darken a critical car safety light? for you and the other drivers

Previous owner installed the fancy blacked out taillights.

I like the look though, but cant see squat backing up through the camera at night.

Now its like having headlights on the rear. Though I did end up wiring them through the taillights instead of trailer.

Nothing ever goes as planned. Old boot had a tear, new inner didn’t come with one. Called five parts stores with no luck. One said they had it, drove 20 minutes there for them not to have it. Amazon for the win. Should be here tomorrow, butttt it’s supposed to rain. A 10 minute job is now two days all from the simplest part of the job. It’s all good though. I’m gonna fish the rest of the day instead.

Made up some bed stands out of a couple of my countless 4x4 posts I got from work; if they look rough it's because they are. I used my chainsaw to cut up everything for these since my sawzall died and I don't have a circular saw.

Finished the 1" body lift install on the EB.

Tore my Toyota rear end apart to shave the housing/fix a leak; and found chipped and cracked ring gear teeth.

Next steps were to source replacement parts.

What is that?

 

[Silverado_Express]

What is that?

Looks like the steering column shaft

My daughter’s Nissan kept sticking in park. I thought it was the brake switch so I swapped it out. Didn’t fix it. Assume it to be the shift lock solenoid. It will go into gear by using the shift lock bypass slot. You can’t feel the little click in the console like you used to when it released. Took the shifter and cover off and zip tied the plastic arm out of the way. Now it won’t be a problem until the zip tie breaks and I’ll do it again. Prices are all over the place. OEM is like $200. Ten cent zip tie for the win. Semi permanent.
