Changed the front diff fluid earlier. It went directly into a 5 gallon oil catch so I didn't get a chance to measure, but it looked like only maybe half a quart drained out. It also seemed cleaner than I would've expected for a truck with no service records and 150k miles.

Waiting for my steering wheel to be delivered and weather to warm up to finish some truck maintenance. Ordered a new tunnel brace for my Holden to have a bit more clearance.

I bought some parts off some forum members... what’d you slackers do to perpetuate the addiction?!!!
Nothing on the trucks but I started my garage remodel. First up was plumbing and electrical for the washer and dryer. It was a 1955 mess. Now I have a corner to start from. I hired someone to do the crawl space part lol.

Crawlspaces SUK!!
Especially after I attempted to remove the old galvanized elbows from the top of the supply lines and I only had one pipe wrench so I just twisted the f*ck out of them and broke the connection down in the crawl space. I didn’t know they were broken so I bought a second pipe wrench and still had to torch the fittings without burning down the house. I hooked up new PEX on the top with new valves, and turned the water on at the street. When I walked back to the garage I could hear it spraying under the house...needless to say it was a muddy mess down there. Oops.

Changed the oil and filter and rotated the tires.

While the back wheels were off I turned the key on to energize the air compressor and fill the shocks, then sprayed the boots with soapy water. Both sides were leaking near the bottom of the bladder.

Guess I'll be looking for Black Friday deals on a new set of air shocks.

Lame! They only get worse! Good on you for proactively checking them before they're so bad that they kill you compressor.

Well a couple weeks ago I noticed the bladders will be deflated after about an hour of shutting off. Then the other day a hauled a bunch of heavy boxes from my in-laws and I kept hearing the compressor kick on about every 10 mins.

At least the compressor isn't bad. I think the shocks are the originals, just hit 120k

Better pull the compressor fuse so it doesn’t burn up before you replace the shocks.

If i do any hauling before getting new shocks I will.

Just normal everyday driving it only kicks on a few seconds when started. I usually don't drive far enough for it to kick on again

If it’s leaking like those pictures show then it’s probably kicking on a lot and you’re driving so you can’t hear when it does. But you might be alright, hard to tell.
