Hey all, a few other forums I'm on have a thread like this where you can say a few words about what you did to your rig recently. I did a few searches and didn't find anything and I don't recall seeing it on DTR. The other forums have hit thousands of posts on these threads and I figured why not start one here!

I'll start it off with Today I changed my front brake pads for the first time at 156,000 km's, replaced the anti-rattle clips and had a good look at the recalled tie rod they put in yesterday. I was amazed to see the pads still had lots left but we're pretty glazed and burnt.

Feel free to post pictures, comments, rants, etc.

I washed mine. Been about 3 months since the last wash job. LOL

OK, I'll put up a couple of recent work days. Washed, waxed and detailed (at least a little ) the beast. Took the Timbrens off and installed a pair of Air Lift bags. Here are some pics of the beast, at 15 years old I think that she still looks pretty clean. A few dents and scratches. nothing too terrible though other than the drivers side box at the back where I jack knifed a small trailer into it .

Not much interest it seems.

No, I think it's a cool idea for a thread; this is just the first I've seen of it.

I climbed under mine and touched up a bit of surface rust on the frame with rust converter. Just getting ready for winter coming .

Hit a deer, pulled off the grille and headlight to see how bad it was underneath. M1 bumper took it like a champ but the AC condenser and headlight are done.

Drive by mine and looked at it, does that count for anything. Been needing to put a clutch in, just haven't had time.

Changed the oil and change the radio on the 01. I don't have to change cd's or cassettes any more. Finished changing the locks on the utility bed.

Track bar and steering stabilizer. Rebuilt the D70.

Repaired a broken wire for the rear running lights - a real PITA to track it down. Installed a couple of new rubber 5 wheel hitch thingies to replace the destroyed, broken and missing ones. Interior detail cleaning, window washing and filling of fuel (OUCH! >$6.31 per imp. gallon). Installed 250W mono block for the as yet to be acquired sub woofer. A good day!

Cheers!

I vaccummed mine out. For the first time ever vaccummed the headliner...man was it dirty. Nothing extremely exciting other than its always clean now with the new satin paint job.

Pulled the injectors out and sent them to Don M... I'll be draining the crankcase shortly...

Put in two new batteries. 95K on factory Batteries.

I installed the sub box - nuttin fancy, 10" sub in a vented enclosure. 500 watt capable and it sounds pretty good. I cleaned up the ground wires at the batteries because a couple of days ago the TC kept dropping out and reengaging and when I took my foot off the fuel feed the TC switch light kept flickering as if the TC had not fully released or was doing the engage/disengage thing. Ran out of time to test drive as got some disturbing news from the GP and have to go see a specialist next week. Got me pretty worried.

Cheers!
