What did you do to your GMT today?

That's a lot of weights.....and on the outside too. Granted, 2 of our 35s required 4+ ounces, but they're on the inside of the rim, out of sight.

The BFG ATs I run as street tires on my Yota have about that much weight on them too. One of my rims is slightly bent though. :mrgreen:

I notice with steel wheels tire places like to put em on the outside. Aluminum they go on the inside.

Ahh, thanks for the clarification! Did not know that.

by **Moots1288** » Fri Jun 07, 2013 9:53 pm

I was wondering also, why I needed so many weights on the outside. Does make sense

Nothing, but it won't stop raining! Currently have both bumper covers off fixing the spit the rear received at TECORE VII, it was much worse than I thought, using epoxy to fix it. Got a couple gallons of Deck Restore waiting on the weather to break and a new radio to install. the bright orange will be gone when I'm done.

Shouldn't take that many weights!

Kind of dumb and done at the last minute; I wired a Whelen Slim-Miser into my switch box for QRS work this week during vacation.

One day you'll be a real police man.

Did the rear brakes and rotated the tires today. Got thwarted again on the fronts. Tomorrow should work once the parts arrive.

Installed Abott's ERA. With Dirty Anton's install and Roadie's wiring tips, install worked the first time.

Abott did provide answers to all my questions.

Blue in the state of New Jersey and Pennsylvania is a courtesy light - meaning volunteers can use them to respond from their homes to their firehouses or rescue squads.
The state of Virginia has a different law regarding them.

But thanks for the chuckle, too. Best of luck with the work on your truck.

Woohoo! New (bigger) rotors and brake pads going on! Hello shorter stopping distance!

Just wish humidity wasn't 80% in the garage. At least the hubby is letting me hide inside today. Something about the pregnant wife having done enough crawling around under the GXP, holding up headers and exhaust while he installed them. (But gosh does it sound amazing.....Trailblazer needs a new exhaust now.....)

by **fishsticks** » Sun Jun 09, 2013 2:27 pm

Get the Kooks I6 headers. You WON'T be sorry.

Mmm, yeah, but Radflos first. I do like how they sound though.

I like your priorities. I don't have my Radflo yet either, I'm hoping yet this summer though.

by **mikekey** » Sun Jun 09, 2013 5:35 pm

GXP dyno tuned first, then radflos and Barton's bumper all before TECORE.

Oh and my rock sliders. Since they're just sitting in the garage.

Looks like I'm not the only one desperate to get rid of the POS BDS kit. I hope to get mine before November.

Had to buy a new windshield, small 6" chrome piece of metal came flying over from the left lane on the highway.

Cleaned CPAS and got some encouragement from my daughter
