Charlie_Brown Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Power steering belt decided it didnt like pushing the snow, jumped off and ripped itself. Swapped over 33s since the 31s were showing the wire belt and swapped a new p/s belt in autozone parking lot that was smaller and fits way nicer. Gotta love the sound super swampers make driving around as a daily. Waiting on the new set of 31s yo put back on the truck and redo the allignment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie_Brown Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 2wd service truck got stuck on the sheet of ice in from of the driveway and didnt want to back up without sliding further down the hill to the burm. Had to use the truck to strap and pull it into the driveway but unfortunately girlfriend is from San Diego and doesnt know snow of how to do this stuff and rammed into the back of me. Only damage between the trucks was my tire carrier got bent in pretty good. Still opens and closes so just cosmetic but makes making this table for it a bit harder. Gotta straighten the bar somehow once it stops snowing now. Heat and a bfg I guess 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedPath88 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Took it for snow duty... aka, car sucks in snow so the Parthy gets the honors. Not that we got enough snow to worry about, though you'd have thought it was two feet or more by the way most other drivers acted. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrelcocko Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Purchased a new used steering wheel with airbags for my 97 Q. Used my elbow grease to clean these puppies up. Now to the install. Will post more pics of the procedure.Sent from my SM-S737TL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.Sans Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I was doing maintenance checks and planning little repairs like new mirrors, bumper, detailing, and all that jazz. Prom is coming around the corner and I had a really cool idea planned out to propose involving my car, but unfortunately my girlfriend broke up with me today - so it's just a fantasy now 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01Pathmaker Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Replaced both drive belts, oil change, new plugs & boots, replaced IACV, removed ECM to send out to Circuit Board Medics. Maybe while she's laid up I'll do the suspension overhaul too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most risky thing out there are the other drivers. Trying to creep up a hill, jabbing the brakes, abrupt turns, abandoning their cars (on off camber outside turns if they can find one)! Ugh!!

Jack9909 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 (edited) Past week I've bled brakes, changed out master cylinder (no change oof), replaced starter and now I'm currently monkeying in a cherry bomb "muffler" because priorities lol. These trucks are fun to work on. Oh and also cleaned my crankshaft position sensor since I had to unplug and move the harness out of the way to get the starter wiggled out, woke up the engine noticeably, I like how easy it is to take those out!

Weekend project, along with an oil change. Checked all of the wiper linkage and everything seems to be okay, however the splines on the arm shafts and the arms themselves are beginning to wear pretty good. Plus the nut was a little loose on the passenger side. So for now it should be fine but it's definitely something I'm going to have to address later on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
