Yesterday, New shoes.
Today inner and outer tie rod ends, brake fluid flush, parking brake adjustment.
Tomorrow, alignment.
Feels like a new truck up front now, after the tie rods and pitman/ idler arms a few weeks ago.
And a quick wash.

Finally keyless! Bought a set of fobs off of amazon yesterday. Prime got 'em to me today before work. Programmed 'em before I left. Wife is very happy!



Okay guys. Which one? These are plastic little bolt ons to the wheels. I was taking them off to try and get all this dirt and crap off of them from the previous owner figured I would see how the looked. 92af7ad0644bf7f391454bc426fd7e5e.jpg
2004 Z71 Suburban Green I have a few upgrades done.

With... definitely with... and I agree the bolts should be black... but then again, I'm partial to that look ;)

Yeah I agree. I was calling a local dealer of the XD wheels to see if they had a black bolt and washer set I could just buy but the guy had a great idea. Said to call Fastenal that they had all the black boots and washers there. So I'll go by Monday and grab some. I don't think me painting them will stay very long so better off this way.

On another note anyone know a really good wheel cleaner safe for matte wheels? The guy before has let the brake dust kinda set in to the wheels no matter how hard a scrub them they always look dirty.

SamHarris..... Not bad...... :roflbow:

Infiniti 'QX50 'Premium Plus' package. It also has the Nissan 370 Z suspension!
( QX60 is just a Pathfinder w/ Infiniti badge)

( Your new shoes..... mine are the 'Yo-mama' H/T tires. It was a choice of Yokohama, Bridgestone or Michelin (too expensive in 17")

Haha! I got my models confused. Very nice! I’ll bet that’s fun to run around in.

I know I am side-swiping the topic a bit..... But we compared value/prices for her compact/ mid-size choices.
..The QX70 is exactly the same car but a different body ( I preferred), but $14,000 more. Other cars like Cadillac XT5.... base model / 4 cyl./ cheap interior/ $40,000 / full optioned a whopping $66,000 !!

Infiniti QX50 Premium package $37,000 / Premium Plus "full optioned" package ( is what we got), only $2,000 more!! And it only comes with the high-torque 3.7 ltr. V6. A great deal!!

We considered the Mercedes GLC 300... Very nice, but I do not trust reliability after 3 years.

Yeah, the other luxury brands that are going sub-compact-SUV style, are ridiculous, and for no good reason! That’s insanity for the XT5!!! Who the hell would pay that?!?!

Rear window refused to roll up. Had to take apart the door and push it back up until an assembly gets here to replace. When going down I can hear it eating plastic. Sure enough there plastic on the bottom of the door. Guess the 15 year old motor got hungry.
