Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Installed a temporary front fender and made some brackets for the front turn signals so I will be able to drive my truck while several parts are off at the body shop. Waiting for a new cam to arrive so I can finish the Vortec head upgrade.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
I was going back and forth between the black/white and black/orange houndstooth, but my wife convinced me the orange wouldn't match my truck, so I gotta give her some credit. I think the black/white looks good with the silver on the gauge cluster bezel.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
I like the black and white hounds tooth. I have the black vinyl brocade that is just too hot in summer, and it's all split out. I want to replace the cover, but I ain't going back to black if I can help it. I'll show my wife this pic.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
I had the black with cloth but at the time couldnt find it reproduced I since have found the correct seat cover but like the hounds tooth . Misses hates the feel of vinyl or even the leather in my Envoy. Specially when shes in shorts which is most of the summer

New TH350 Shift Shaft and Speedo gear to be leak free and I installed these sweet license plate holders for front and back that I got off eBay when I brought her home tonight :-)

A picture is worth a thousand words (four letter words, in this case).

Looks like a collapsed oil filter. Did someone say Fram?

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Rebuilt the top end of the steering column yesterday. My truck had a broken hazard switch when I bought it and never replaced. Put in new levers, signal/hazard, and indicators. Only issue was a I mangled the end thread with the puller, so I'm currently trying to figure out to best rectify. Still need to correct the indicator position as well.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
It's a Mobil1 filter that refused to come off. There was paint on the block and the seal stuck to it. You can see a little red on the seal.. I have since cleaned the paint off. I am also feeling a bit skeptical of the recommended 1-1/4 turns past contact they show on the sticker.

Transmission leaks fixed (shift shaft and Speedo gear) - though I didn't do it myself. Replaced signal mech, hope that nails my short/blowing fuse and after replacing all the screws, inserts, and springs I did a very early morning headlight adjustment a bit ago! Nice to have a morning drive in the truck :-)
Oh and for a nice little topping, noticed my antenna was loose and moved, so I adjusted that when I got home.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
1/4 turn seems a little loose, but I agree 1-1/4 is way too tight.
