Yes, and they were the original black plates, not the new repops that California just started issuing for those wanting to switch.

Clean up them hoses!!! That's looks horrible. Here's how I did mine....

Ohhh, you weren't talking about the major leaguers on the field, you meant all of us in the stands. }>

Well, using your common core math (bahahahahahaha) then you are in error, it was a minimum of 140 Atlanta fans. Had to be, you few were doing the chop whenever y'all saw each other. :-X14

Heh, more like two teenagers trying out for Fight Club with the way the Giants fell apart after the break.

Well, the Ex just finished the 12+ hour haul from Salt Lake City, and I am now sitting at home.

The Ex ran perfectly the whole trip. I only once saw the temps jump into the 220 range and the EGT climb above the 1100k mark, and that was when I was flogging it up a steep grade in eastern Oregon in 90+ weather.

The Ex seems to be reborn, and it is about time, as my wallet is once again tapped out :'(

Now, tomorrow should be a complete overhaul of the Ex, vacuum and a wash top to bottom. Man is she a dirty girl at the moment...

it fills up too fast, i suggest 100 x 60 for a good start

I love my RAS setup. For those that haven't seen it's benefits, you can check out the bennies at Suspension.

Yes, I am in the process of doing just that. Since the 1/2 inch lines seem to kink much easier, I had to run the right side line in a bit of a loop after the reduction to 3/8.

Washed the Ex, cleaned the coolant filter (didn't need it), checked all the fluids, hooked up the camper and it is waiting for Thursday to tow to the beach for the long weekend.

I used some "push lock" hose on mine, it tends to hold its shape easier it seems. And when used with the proper fittings no clamps are needed.











On another note, anyone have any experience with trans codes??

I hate drum brakes
 

I put on my new rotors, pads and power stop calipers yesterday. I could not get the parking brake adjusting screw to back off. It took me five hours to do the first side and less than an hour for the second. I still need to bleed them. I hope I can get done tonight. Did I mention I hate drum brakes?

I also tried to find the 1/2 to 3/8 fittings to install my 6.0 transmission cooler with no luck.

Just had the cooling system flushed this morning. The only unknown left is the tranny, but the oil looks good, the outside is clean, and the oil doesn't smell burnt. I thought I'd wait to get the SCT tune before evaluating the shifting, etc.

You may end up getting a couple fittings to make it work. Like a 1/4 male npt to 1/2 barb and a 1/4 female npt to 3/8 barb, and thread them together.

I ended up needing a slide hammer and a lot of elbow grease to get my rotors off and ended up destroying them. They tend to lock in place even without the shoes hanging on them.

I found mine at Home Depot, the best I could do locally. I had to do it with 2 pieces ( at Lowes it would have taken 3 pieces ) like Dave suggested. The 1/2 inch was a female that threaded onto the 3/8 male. Sorry.... I forget what size the pipe thread was. I couldn't find adapters individually on Amazon when I ordered the cooler.

I am going to try granger. Home Depot had the two piece option, I was not sure about the two piece and leaking with high temp. Can you use the regular thread tape?
