What did you do to your GMT today?

[Mirage]

How do you like those breaks? I need to upgrade soon, I have Napa adaptive one on both cars and after a year they suck. Don't like them.

I changed oil and did the VVT valve just in case. You do have to take off power steering pump to pull all the way out. Simple 1 bolt on VVT.

Noticing some vibration, may be my offroading, will need to look at motor mounts over holidays.

So far I love them. I think I may still have a little air in the rear from when I did the callipers. Not quite happy with pedal feel.
There is a huge difference in stopping ability. I'm worried I'm going to spin my tires on the rims if I stop hard enough lol.

Dropped the rig off today, all fluids front to back changed, rebuild front diff/disco, fix ac actuator, O2 sensor, etc. Ordering parts online for the black friday discounts!

Love the blacked out look, Mirage!! The steelies make it look like a military black ops truck Very tough!

[Anthony Hernandez]

Just finished today a project I thought would never end. Welded the bumper 3 weeks ago then decided it would be a good idea to paint the whole truck. I'll never do that again but I love the result. I used 1 liter of black raptor liner for the bumper and roof rack and 12 liters tinted to Jeep's "dune" color for the rest of the truck. I plan on spraying the mirrors next weekend.

I dig that color. Painting is a pain in the ass, but can be worth it. I skimped out on the tape job when I painted my old 4runner. The glass ended up getting hazed pretty bad and I had to take a razor blade and scrape for days... Lesson learned.

Just put in order for PCM of NC mail order tuning. Off this week, will be shipping in overnight and return overnight.


EDIT: Shipped overnight!!!

Its been way to long since I posted a picture of my TB. I got Marks 3" lift and the set of spacers install along with a set of 15 Silverado wheels. I went with a set used 265 70 R17 Goodyear wrangler AT/S to test fit. Overall looks good. Maybe in a year or three I might swap some axles.

Got the bumper, radiator skid and oil skid on...

[bartonmd]

Looks awesome, man!

[bljis123]

Yeah man, it is sexy. Was painless to get on with 2 jacks holding skids.

Took all weekend, but replaced the power steering lines (due to a leak somewhere) and replaced front springs with Moog 114s I got from Navigator. First impression is that the springs helped w/the sagging due to the heavier bumper/winch/skids.

I pulled a power steering pump and the lines off a junker last week and realized I may never install them after seeing the cluster removal was. Not so much fun.

Listen here, boys and girls.
Always be sure to loctite and torque you caliper bolts.

Regulator had similar few years back..Bad news bears!

[Anthony Hernandez]

Damn bro.

Badass, love it!

Looks like a whole new truck! Really a shame it didn't get it the calendar this year. You'll have to be sure to get a great shot of it for next year. I want something EPIC!

That looks great! So much good stuff going on lately. It looks good with that blacked out grille.

We've seen that a time or two. From the wear inside the wheel it looks like you'd been riding with it broken for a bit - or maybe the aluminum just wears down that fast.
