Fixed the drivers side door that wouldn't lock. Thought it might be the door lock solenoid or the wiring going to it. Took the door apart and started to cycle the lock. Noticed that the latch on the door jamb was gunked up. Sprayed it off with some cleaner and it works fine now. Big thanks to Harmon for the tip.
Installed bracket for overhead console. Need to trim it to make it fit and decide on how to mount the rear of it. For future reference here's some links:
Installed Rpm plug wires, a taylor cap and rotor, gm coil, and put in a prototype turbo tweak chip. Gave the truck awash and had some fun on the test drive eric marshall is da man

Got it back from the shop with a new steering box! WOOT
Also new drivers window motor installed. Doesn't take 8 hours to roll my window up anymore. WOOT!
But, no A/C yet. Need a new compressor. BOTH the compressors that I have are FUBAR'D. no-woot.
I did all I could today (cause of my shoulder surgery). I ordered new a-arms, tie rod ends shocks, ignition module, coil. I am going to the junk yard this weekend to pull a Jeep steering shaft. My Ty-clone should handle beautifully after I get it all on.
Went for a little cruise this morning and stopped at hardware store to pickup a couple screws to put the new license plate frame on the front plate, without the frame the plate looks like it is twisted. First put some wax behind plate area and on hood that looked kind of smeared in the light when I opened the garage this morning.
Yesterday I got my rear F-Body disk conversion done (with the help of Sean Krupa). I had the calipers powder coated to match the cladding, and the rotors are Zinc coated drilled and slotted. looks tuff. Also got my new Summit (now engrave w/Typhoon) diff cover installed too. I had to go and get new bolts though....the old ones were too short. Bled the brakes today...but ran outta time before I could take it for a test drive. Next week ABS delete, and front pads....until I have the time for tackle the front F-Body conversion. I still have to figure out the brackets and e-brake cables....soon enough.
One thing I didn't do this weekend is buy more parts.
