Alrighty-
Most of the stuff I wanted to do to the GM is done or the parts are on the way. Windows tinted, Kenwood deck and speakers installed. New radiator core support and center air deflector installed. New fuel filter installed. I have the transmission filter, 180 thermostat, upper radiator hose, rear end oil and RTV. Trickflow plenum is on the way. Rear sway bar, brackets, nuts/bolts, and endlinks are on the way. Need three gallons of coolant, left and right air deflectors,lower radiator hose, maybe a 70mm throttle body-(undecided as of yet), and six quarts of Mercon V. Mid-term I will need new brake rotors in the front and some nice pads, it would be nice to replace the shocks. Long-term I think the walker dual system is the cherry on top.

that's a lot of work. nice stuff.

I'm curious why new gear oil at 40K? or does it have more mileage on it now?

Nah, its at about 43K now. I just want to change all fluids and be done with it. 8 years old though, so its about time.
