Re: What did you do to your SY/TY today?

What application did you get the 7/8" cylinders from? More stopping power is great, unless the rears lock up easier. Do they?

I got them from a 95 Chevy Blazer from Napa. One of the cheapest most effective mods I've done. Part # WC37854

Minding my own business, suddenly the drivers side window wouldnt roll up/down properly. Took the door apart and it appears the regulator had worn itself out enough that the motor cant always hit the teeth on the regulator. Lots of flex at the pivot point.

Went down to NAPA and my buddy was working, so walked out with a new regulator for 40 bucks. Swapped it in and all is well. Took the time to intall new plastic track dingus on the window too.

I started mine and let it run in the driveway. I noticed the gas tank leaking, so I pulled it back into the garage. Looks like I am going to need to put tighten clamps again.

Got it back from being painted and washed the polishing compound out of the cracks.
I love the smell of new paint!

Your wheels look awesome! Are they original or did you have them refinished?

I had the wheel faces polished and the windows cleaned up and painted. I really need to polish the wheels up really nice and have clear powder put on them though since re-polishing them every few weeks is kinda tedious.

Made a Radio Shack ALDL cable and did some datalogging.

For some reason I'm not getting commanded boost, hmmmmmmm. Looks like someone might've been dinking with the rod so I guess I'll look into that more.

Drove it for the first time since NATS. Figured out that front end noise that started after AutoX was 4 loose lugs on the front left:doh:

Well at least you found out before anything bad happens. I hope you went to the other wheels as well and made sure they were all tight. :tup:
