What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

[CRB Racing]

Had U-joints replaced and driveshafts rebalanced. Hopefully that will take care of my vibration @ 60-65mph I’ve been having since the gear swap.

nothing big
but put on my studded snows after sliding for an hour in ice to get to my sons house, where my mounted snows were...its actually a 1.5 hour drive,normally but took almost 2. but was in ice for an hour..tombstone pass to you locals....yuck
put on new wiper blades....ive been happy with the Michelin stealth blades, those lasted me two years so did the same, they have held up nice in the snow and ice,
while at my sons got my amazon package with my "Club" and a "tap a fuse" for installing some new lights
made a big order of small parts from camelback...well not that big, I had to stretch it to make the 150 minimum for free shipping. ( like add a few oil filters ...ydzz3) But it was a lot of little non critical things I have been putting off and adding to my list. Guess I'm gonna have to start a new list.

Please post back to let us know if that helped. I'm trying to get rid of a 65-75mph vibration too.

The drivetrain shop that did the work are able to replace the U-joints on the double cardan joint. I didn’t have to replace those atm since they were still good.

I’ll keep you updated.

Installed an LED strip on the rear hatch. Tapped into the rear dome light. Easy and awesome mod. Picture of the output Here

Got it home on Saturday, spent most of Sunday vacuuming the million pine needles out of every nook and cranny. Removed the "bush bar" and tail light guards and sold them today for 50 clams.

Already got a CEL so will be diagnosing that soon and making the necessary repairs.
Will need plugs and wires
New LBJs
Rear diff fluid change and
A new radiator to start with.

ProSteer chasis parts looking like a legit TRE solution.

Getting ready to mount my 40A relay in the engine bay for some rear bumper lights and come to find out a squirrel or rat has decided to chew half of the wire leading to my MC connector (99 here). Pissed. I wish Milwaukee would hurry up and get their cordless soldering iron to Home Depot so I don't have to drag out the Weller.

My GF's cats will be receiving a stern lashing for not doing their job.....

Put my 1997 2.7 5spd 4x4 in for a new clutch.

Excellent. One can be one too much at times. Two would be hard to handle.

I must have been thinking about the ex wife earlier in writing that post......

Well the P.O. of my new to me 2000 2wd 2.7L had no records of maintenance except for "I had the oil changed regularly" so today I started by cleaning the MAF and TB. The latter was extremely dirty.

Checked the plugs and they looked pretty fried so I grabbed some new densos from the dealership and will swap them in tomorrow.

Also scanned my CEL and it appears to be a p420 code so I'll start by swapping in a new downstream o2 sensor and hope that does the trick. If not I'll look at doing something about the cat.

Will try and change the rear diff oil this week too.

stayed little late after work and did a oil change, fuel filter, and installed the passenger side mirror housing. noticed the oil leaks from the VCG are getting a little bigger so thats next on the list.

Didnt have time to do the steering rack bushings so may try that this weekend.Double checking what I thought was bad, turned out to be worse in that all 3 bushings are almost gone.

the front bumper is but not unless you modded the shit out of the rear bumper. i have the Shrockworks rear and for one the tire does not tilt or even go that high. the swingout goes across the arm. and there are no lights in the bumper. plus there is a license plate holder with leds above. not to say i dont like the bumper but it looks nothing like any of their work i have seen

Possibly a one off from them then. Original owner dropped it off at Shrockworks and had it all installed, don't see why they would install another brand's bumper but it's possible.

Wheeled it, broke some stuff. Went all out on upgrades.

4.56s front and rear, ARB lockers front and rear from ECGS.
Quick reudamentary drawing I did for the OBA I plan to do, I don't know where I will mount the tank ... or even if I will use this tank, might use a smaller tank somewhere or stuff this under the rear where the spare used to be.

did you install it yourself?

No way! That is a can of worms I did not want to open up. I had it installed by my buddy who is an installer. Auto start this morning was so nice with how the temperature has dropped.
