No bull bar for me either. Not the look I want for my Denali. Plus….. I was lucky enough to score a rare Denali down under grille for my truck not long after I bought my truck. And mine is the full piece that goes all the way across the lower opening. A bull bar would mean I’d have to mount the...
Nice work on the lifter!! Way beyond my skill set under the hood! I’m impressed! Hopefully you can get it to pass smog! That stuff is so annoying here in California. I hate it lol.
I believe the latest gen Z71s, both tahoes and Silverados with 20 inch wheels are coming out of the factory on 275/60/20 tires, which I think the OP said his wheel and tire setup came from a Z71. Looks to be that size from the photos.
I’m in the crew of “that’s what was on my engine before I touched it, so it needs to be put back together exactly as it was before I disassembled it” mindset. I managed to break the passenger side cover on the corner where the rear bolt goes through today when i went to put new spark plugs in……...
Told the gal at autozone just gimme the most expensive option for plugs you have. Ended up with Bosch plugs. Truck fired right up and tech2 showed no misfires so should be good to go.
Finally got time to do spark plugs. I’m not gonna lie…… I swore…. ALOT!!! The drivers side, odd numbered cylinder plugs absolutely sucked. I was constantly slamming my hands into everything in the way on the drivers side. The #8 cylinder on the opposite side of the block was WAY easier than the...
All finished up and reset the oil life monitor. And I’ve said this before but I’ll say it again….. I absolutely hate the god awful location of the oil filter on these engines. It’s the stupidest design ever and such a PIA….. it fights me….. EVERY…. SINGLE…. TIME… I’m over how much effort it...
Oil change interval time. Was gonna push it off til the first of the week because work has me going non stop. But my mom called today in a panic…. Her boat is halfway down the mountain in running springs. Needed a new starter after she forgot to put the plug in before launching near the end of...
your 2011 is easier to park because it IS smaller than your 2023. The 2023 models are absolutely taller, a tad bit wider in the body, and longer than the previous gen models.
Made the trip home today. Left Layton about 8am and had a beautiful drive all the way to St. George. No traffic, 75 degrees all the way with the sunroof open and cruising at 80MPH, clear skies. Listened to the live stream from my home church via YouTube. And then listened to some podcasts. St...
Spent the late afternoon today detailing Bryce’s 2001 Subaru Impreza GC8 that he pretty much built from the wheels up. Don’t know all the specs on it but I think ite got an STI engine from a 2013 STI. Full custom paint job on it. Fun little car to detail.
But had to go on an adventure tonight I...
Came back to house and had lunch and then we rolled up to Hill Air Force base to their air museum cuz I’d read that they have an SR-71 on display. I’ve seen one in person many times as before I moved to big bear I lived in Moreno Valley 5 minutes from March Air Reserve base. Which is where the...
Today was a whirlwind day. Kate-Lynn and I took the pups on a short hike all of 10 minutes from the house at a neat little hiking trail/pond area in a little canyon area. Warm sunshine today was perfect for the 2 mile loop with the three dogs they have.
Brought my detail gear with me and spent Friday giving Kate-Lynn’s new to her bronco sport and Bryce’s 2016 ram 3500 that used to belong to his mom, which is driven many times, the royal detail treatments. Bryce had a harbor freight foam cannon and I liked it so much I went and grabbed one. 35...
Rest of the 4the spent partying with the homies. Met a few more my friends’ friends and had a great day. Lots of laughter, sunshine, a couple adult bevvies here and there. Not too much though for me since I’m not a big drinker. lol. Inflatable water slide runs. Corn hole. Good food. And Bryce...
Thursday the 4th was quite the fantastic day. Got to cross a bucket list item off and couldn’t be more excited about it. Been watching union Pacific railroad’s social media the last couple weeks as they’ve been sharing videos of their 4-8-8-4 big boy locomotive a ton, locomotive #4014. I...
Well guys hope everyone had a safe and fun 4th of July! Well those is here in the states at least haha. Sorry to y’all Canadians that the 4th of July is just another regular day…. :Big Laugh:
Anyways it’s been a very interesting week…. Lots to update on.
Got the water pump squared away...
