I had to polish out my glass last week after a botched attempt to use the McKee’s hydroblue coating as a sealant left a nasty film of crud all over my glass. Full clay and polish with CG V32 polish and then seal with JetSeal. And my glass looks like his does^! haha

So what a PAIN IN THE ASS.

Took me 4 tries to weld this thing on to stand up to an impact gun. I see welding classes in my future.

I got the SOB off though.

For those that don't know this is the transmission pan drain plug on the older models. New ones don't have them anymore.

Did the rear brakes today. Also, Parking brake would not hold what so ever before, now I have a nice firm pedal. Had to put in new shoes and adjusted the star nut bolt to spread it out more.

Got the transmission pan all buttoned up too. Ran into an issue with the shift lever cable bracket. The stupid torx stripped out. What a gay design by the General.

Went and picked up my Escalade Roof rack end caps. Had them painted professionally and well worth it.
