Replaced both rear AC actuators. Also installed the left over dynamat from when I did the doors on the plastic panel.

Thank you Rene @915_Tahoe for providing me me the correct oem part numbers.

Oh, I also got the alignment yesterday, and now they say my steering box, pitman arm and idler arm need replaced. They want 250 plus parts to do it. At this point I'm just gonna drive it, and hope the tires last a little while. That's probably what I should have done in the first place.

Here's the front with 4 different colors of plastic, lol

I think it's in there, I wish they made red ones. The passanger side was a lot easier without the running board in my way. Bout to cut this other one off too.
Those bump stops are realllll fun to replace in the cold on a cup that’s rusted up I went around it with a socket extension to push it up in...been a year and they are still there.

Today I noticed a DRL light out so replaced both, $13 for 2 bulbs and 2 packets of bulb grease at autoZone they like there overhead...also tried out the trico ice wiper blades...fail. Driver side streaked crazy bad like the wiper wasn’t even on the windshield. Swapped passenger side to driver and same thing!?!?. Ended up putting my old trico forces back on and they acted completely fine. Not sure what was going on there. It’s always something

Maybe the new blades just needed some cleaning with an alcohol pad. It helps sometimes.

I used a nut driver. A couple were a little rough, I can imagine that rubber is pretty stiff when it's cold. The old ones seem like foam inside of rubber, idk what these are made of. I probably should have tried harder to find bigger ones, because I cranked the torsion bars up some. They are not quite touching. I also cranked the sway bar end links down some more, because I've been hearing a little clunk. Hoping that takes care of it and it's not the bushings for the torsion bar, I was reading another thread here where that was the problem. Bout to test drive it right now.

Just weird that the wipers were the same outcome just on the driver side. Passenger side both were 100% fine, driver both were bad. Old wipers no problem either side
