Got up into the 50s and sunny today....Tahoe was covered in gravel dust and mud from driving through road construction in the rain a few days ago....so it got washed, glass cleaned, tire dressing, and ceramic waxed. It looks soooo freaking good. Also did my wifes car, which completely finished off my arms ( rock climbing last night started the process ) but they both look so good now.

My 03 actually has the drain plug in it. Trans was replaced before I bought it, so not sure if it originally came like that.
It looks like Rockauto has a pan for your vehicle with a drain plug. Not sure if this considered a deep pan or not.

Oh wow thats mega cheap. It is the ‘deep’ pan as far as the two oem ones are considered. Theres the shallow and the deep. Shallow is on like the camaros or vettes and deep is for the trucks

Ordered!
Normally calls for 22” wipers. I dropped down to an 18” on the pass side. And it still lifts off the glass.

if you get the traditional ones that have the legs on them for lack of better term it wont lift like that. Had same issue on my s10Normally calls for 22” wipers. I dropped down to an 18” on the pass side. And it still lifts off the glass.

I put new Bosch blades on the Yukon today and noticed the lift as well.
The traditional blades with the various sections don’t work so well in the winter here in Iowa with all of the snow and ice. Have better luck here with the beam style, despite the lift on the far passenger side of the windshield.

totally agree. My traditionals when i had the s10 literally froze to the windshield the first time it got cold cold here. 90% of the year here though they’ve always worked better for me.

I generally drive using the other 99.86% of the windshield that the wipers cover. That small area on the far end of the passenger side doesn't make a damn to me.
Well it annoys the **** out of me.
I splurged and bought a set of these. They had a $15 MIR and I also had a 15% rewards card.

Couldn't stand the chrome overload or ride of the 22's any longer so I ordered up some replicas of a 2019 Z71 Trail Boss in 20x9s with a "titanium finish" and some Toyo Proxes in a 305/50. Couldn't be happier with the looks or the handling, although I will have to do some trimming of the plastic end caps at the front of the power steps to cure a minor rub issue at full lock and add some flares if she's ever to stay clean again. Plan is to blackout all the chrome and "de-badge"...

I use the RainX Expert Fit Hybrid wiper. It's a traditional wiper with sprinf legs but has a built-on sectioned cover to make it like a beam style to keep out ice and snow.
They still lift off the glass at the bottom of the passenger side, but only a tiny bit and only for about the first inch of the upward wipe.

I had 135 k on mine and it was still running good. What I noticed was my highway gas mpg went up...

Check his build thread, he was active on it a few days ago.
I’m interested in seeing what happens to my mileage. I was very happy with how well the swap went. I always start with #8 and it went just about as smooth as the rest now that I have my tool selection and technique figured out.

Did my first oil change since installing the Fumoto drain valve. Is it normal for it to take 30 minutes to drain the oil with this thing? I went ahead and punched a hole in the filter to cut down on the mess. It drains faster than the valve does!
