Re: What did you do yo your truck today??
i replaced my head lights, front turn signals and corner marker lights with a more modern looking style. i also replaced all the bulbs in the tail lights and back up lights with L.E.D.s. Then i replaced the fuel tank straps as the rear strap rusted through and my fuel tank almost dropped out from under my baby.

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??
yea, what sparked the whole light thing was i got pulled over by a cop in front of me one night because she said my lights weren't bright enough..................... problem solved, my new head lights have the ultra white bulbs in them. and all the other lights are LEDs as i said before.

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??
Started out doing the 4-Hi mod, and ended up removing the grille and lights as the passenger headlight and core support were damaged by a deer prior to purchase.
The circled area's are where the core support is bent from the deer. Not bad considering what a deer did to my S10 years ago. I'm going to pull this back out and line it all bad up. You can see here the lower tab is broken off of the headlight. The next two pics you can see the other damage to the light. The pins that you remove to pull the headlight are both damaged to the point they just spin and I couldn't remove the headlight. Which is what led to the grille coming off. So I'm now looking for new headlights, matching turn signals (as the ones I have now are getting water inside) and I'm thinking of a new grille while I'm at it. May even put the 20" LED light bar behind the grille too.

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??
Finished bleeding the second brand new master cylinder after the first was bad and finally drove my new disk rear brake setup. It was glorious.

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??
Bought a bumper off craigslist for $50. The next day went to local junkyard that had GMT400's everywhere, and bought Bumper filler, tow hooks, and air dam for $60. $110 well spent to get the front en looking spiffy as ever!!
picked up some H2 wheels. Listed the stock steelies for sale and someone came and boughtthem right off the truck before i could blink. So i had to buy new tires for the H2s. Went with 265-70-17 Cooper Discoverer. Got the center caps off craigslist today for $10. Im very happy with the look!!!! |

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??
Replaced my rear bumper after turning with a trailor too far and bending it up. Also added a tow hitch to prevent future bent bumpers lol. Also installed junkyard oem sunvisor rod as I'm tired of replacing the LMC rod every 6 months. The porsche tire compressor I had installed for my rear helper bags died so I'm piecing together a Mercedes air ride pump to replace it as well.

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??
Fixed the Axle vent on my 2000 Z71. It rotted off and was plugged. So I built a new one at the 1/2" fill plug.

In the process on installing an 6.0 along with the tranny from a 2002 Escalade. Sticking with the stock X-Case from a 95' Tahoe.

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??
Dropped a new GM crate motor into my 98 Hoe after the original motor suffered a "thermal event" when my radiator cap failed at freeway speeds in triple digit heat. As a nod to history, the new crate engine was painted in Hanger Orange.
