Making measurements for the Energy Suspension front drop links. Probably go with the 3.575" ones.
Front axles removed, stub shaft's bolted into the hubs JIC.
Missing locating pin for the adjustment cams...
Fixed with the Dirt King pins kit. If they don't fit snug it is suggested to tack weld them into place.
Dirt King locking cams installed, I love these. I also like the fact the bolts face inwards instead of trying to pry them in around the springs like the factory ones.

Changed the rear differential fluid; something I'd not yet done before on this. Cleaned all inside with carb cleaner. Painted the outside portion of the diff cover silver. And found a drill attachment wire wheel worked well for cleaning all mating surfaces. I used a GM OEM rubber gasket to put back together (part #26063649 below for reference but note this for a 14-bolt rear end). Man those flexible Valvoline gear oil pouches are amazing for refill!
Ordered a Eaton Detroit true track, new ring and pinion New yoke seals bearings the whole shebang

Dropped off the project 6.0 block, and another bin of parts, off at the engine shop to be cleaned. After lugging the block inside the owner was like, "you gotta check this out"
He was finishing up a Pontiac 400ci with six carbs for a customer's rat-rod.
He's got a ton of other built engines in there to show off, but I was in a rush to get home and mow before the next week of rain. He said all the parts on my 154,*** engine looked to be in really good shape, minus the cam bearings. All he'll do ifirvthe block is polish the crank journals, run a hone down the cylinders, slap in some new cam bearings.
The heads will get a full service... skim, valve job, new stem seals, and install the BTR springs.
Plus everything going in the hot tank.

They are called "insurance" nuts and washers.
With all that work, you'd think the customer would have sprung for a new, decent harmonic balancer and pulley assembly.
Sounds like the shop does some decent work at reasonable prices.
Hard to find these days.
But, maybe I'm just too used to what it costs to do antique car engines. I'm saving up the $25k I need to have a spare engine rebuilt for my Pierce Arrow.

I want to say that the machinist said the engine has been in/out of the car a few times recently. It was in having a new top end put together. I'll ask him for better details next time I'm there.
Where's my pups pics?You must have expensive insurance, too
Also according to previous testimony I have read here, you have stated sir, and I quote:
"You couldn't tell that son of a ***** NOTHIN'"
Can you say that in the paper? Sunuvabtch?
Oh damn, wrong quote, sorry.
"Shouldn’t have to do the free travel mod unless you’re going lower than 4”
Show off your 2015-2020 lowered tahoes and yukons
Nope, Power Stop Z36 kit. You can see better pics in my build thread. 2017 Yukon XL build. They look good. Considered painting mine but I don’t want them to look cheesy. Would really like the big brakes or Brembos. But who has that kind if money? Not me lol

Hill Start Assist was introduced in 2012. These vehicles also received Trailer Sway Control too. The EBCM holds the brakes long enough for you to move your foot from the brake to the gas pedal.
