Ordered some add a leafs to help the tired old springs. I don't really like the current stance especially in the winter when the back is loaded with sandbags, and I plan on getting a toolbox and adding more weight. Also got my new 4 hole injectors in the mail today.

stared at the 2nd gen today... she was a good ole girl when she was in better shape.

replaced the multifunction switch, master window switch, and both front door switch bezels on the 3rd gen today.

still waiting on the new ash tray, front license plate bracket, and led bulbs for my reverse lights..

getting her inspected monday!

here in NH they give you 10 days to get your vehicle inspected after registration renewal. so i love seeing all the cops stare at me, knowing theyre running my plate number, and also knowing they cant pull me over and ticket me for uninspection!

Changed the oil and filter, rotated the tires, replaced the upper radiator hose (it was leaking), and put about 10 miles on it.

Changed my rear wheel cylinders out with ones from a 1999 chevy 3500. The difference is night and day.

Should be a direct replacement.

It was a direct replacement. I only took out the two springs on the brake shoes and the two bolts holding wheel cylinder on and the brake line. Took all of about an hour to do including bleeding the breaks. Each wheel cylinder is like 11$ at autozone. The ones I got were from a 1999 chevy 3500 4X4 dually.
