What did you do with your truck/shop today

Nice - that's the first time I've actually seen a picture of an adjustable one. That gives you some big camber options, looks like.

 

I'm kicking myself for not going with the silver higher-end Bilstein's when I did my struts a couple years ago. I've got the yellows now - they ride great, but would've been nice to have the best of the best. Maybe next time ... if there's anything left of the truck by then ... [emoji38]

Camber and caster actually. 3 degrees max in either direction. Should definitely help

Well i decided to stick with 20's. More options in a 275/45R20. Not sure i can stuff a 285/50R20 on a 2/4 drop. Leaning towards the 2014 SLT "snowflakes". Replica of course. Probably chrome because i dont think black wheels look good on a dark truck. Maybe a black chrome. Yesterday I saw a Black Granite 05 (yes 05 i am that much of a nerd with the 800 series that i can distinguish 03 from 04 from 05 Silverados) with flat black 22" CK375 reps and other than tail lights it was color matched. Did not appeal to me.

Did the front brakes on the truck tonight after work. What a work of difference not having warped rotors anymore.

Alright let me get yalls opinions. You think this space is bad between the UCA and knuckle? That's as tight as I can get it. If it's not okay I can take the UCA'S off and press in standard ball joints (these are adjustable ball joints btw)

As long as the taper is fully seated, it'll be good safety wise ... but it's gonna puke grease constantly, & collect all kinds of trash in that space. Might be good to shim it up with large washers just to close it a bit. Kinda sucks if you already cranked the nut down though ...

 

It also might close up once the weight is on it too.

That's what I'm worried about is trash and something getting up inside the boot. I'm gonna call moog tomorrow and see what they think about it. Obviously not a defect if it happened to both of them.

 

Maybe the boot expands downward when filled with grease? Shot in the dark but who knows

Put my tow mirros back on today after towing my dads boat for the second time and relizing how much it sucked to do with the little mirrors. Also gave it a nice bath.

I did knock sensors round 2 today. Replaced the harness and resealed the rubber caps with high temp silicone. Hopefully I'm good to go now.

Filled up with diesel at a Shell station for $2.63 per gallon and picked up a new picnic table...

[Jsdirt]

Wow - most are over $3/gallon up here again (at least the name brand stations) ... and rising every day.

They'll never be able to compete with the sheer volume that comes out of the ground. I won't hold my breath on that one ... until they can convert my 2 acres of dandilions into fuel.

 

I'll be curious to see how the lab engine test goes. Just because they made it certainly doesn't mean it's any good ...

[SnakeEyeSS]

Where is the driver door open sensor on these 900's? Mine is starting to go. What ever happened to the tiny simple push switch all cars had...

[MikeNH]

It's part of the latch.
