I gotta admit. I'm the guy that means to go to the yard, but checks ebay and end up just buying it there haha.


I get the feeling the shipping and feed back would be hard to make much money off

I think all the gmt900 stuff ends up on eBay before it ever gets to a yard.

depends on the part I used to get 500-800 for a f-body dash, $200 for a trans-am cluster panel cover, $500 for a center console, but all those cars are long gone now.
I got so I could pull a dash out in like 15-20 minutes, easy money because the yard would only charge like $40-50 for a dash
now i have kids and tons of stuff to sell so no time to go really, just once in a while

ahh for money like that I could see it.

ha kids, ain't nothing killed my ability to get stuff done like having a kid.

Annual power steering flush, about 1/2 gallon usually does it, if it hasn't ever been done use 1 gallon for best results I just use a transfer pump I don't like taking lines off that are well sealed for years

 

[j91z28d1]

you do that annually?

wow I have only done one power steering flush in my life to one car ever. huh

 

[Doubeleive]

you do that annually?

wow I have only done one power steering flush in my life to one car ever. huh

ya,I flush transmission, brake, power steering, coolant annualy, front & rear diiff, transfer case every 2 years
brake fluid is the worst it gets burnt pretty good especially the way I drive

 

[Doubeleive]

brake fluid and power steering fluid are both pretty clear liquids, the first fluid to come out of the power steering reservoir was pretty dark but lightens up as I get the old fluid flushed out. when I bought at 5 years old it had obviously never been done and took about a gallon to get clear fluid to come out

I feel like a terrible maintenance mechanic lol.

I do tranny and brakes, switch to dot 4 in anything I'm going to drive hard. but besides my c6 that gets the power steering worked very hard since adding the angle kit. byond that, I never thought it was a thing haha.

Got the Cold Case out today and the new Denso radiator and new K5L fans installed. The cold case was leaking from an end tank seam. Pretty bad, too. So much so, it appears it was getting slung forward against the AC condenser by the fans. POS. Lesson learned.

new Denso radiator

Happy with that Denso unit #2219514? Seems that it has both inputs for the oil + trans cooler lines on the sides of it.

I was looking at it over the weekend. Want to revamp the entire cooling system next month (radiator, water pump, thermostat, hoses, etc.) before summer road trip season lol.
