Ryan, maybe that is why he had me swap the waterpump on the tahoe awhile back lol. Tin Man, if we don't teach them how to do it themself we will be doing for them till we die lol. That 3 hour thing is why I haven't changed the t-stat in dawn's ugly aztek yet. They told me you have to pull the exhaust manifold cross over pipe off to get to the stupid thing and I fear snapping old rusty bolts in aluminum heads!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

The water pump shouldn't have been too bad in the Hoe. pretty straight forward, he just didn't want to do it or didn't have the time.

I need to get the brakes done on my wife's trailblazer. WHen I tried the first time I found out some Ahole had impacted all of the caliper bolts back on. I was at her mom and dad's and her dad just didn't have what I needed to break them free. So I packed up and just haven't got back to it yet. I plan on going back to her mom's as they have a garage and a kerosene heater, I will just bring my breaker bar and my sockets to work with. I might lay on the ground and PB blaster the bolts and see if I can have a little extra persuasion with the bolts.

 

Dawn's oldest boy has a trialblazer as well. when we did his front brakes I had ti use a big hammer on a boxed end wrench to get them loose. They were the factory brakes we were changeing. Wonder if it is just something with the gm set up?
