I just left work for a few and went over to Napa Auto. I bought some more stuff for my 100K tune up. I'm at 98K now!

They had Valvoline Dexron VI Full Synthetic on sale for $5.19 per quart, so I bought 16 quarts for my tranny fluid change.

Also bought some Dex-cool which was on sale for $9 bucks a gallon, so i'll have that for flushing the coolant.

Then got a Napa Gold oil filter while I was there.

And my order from www.oempartsgarage.com shipped today, so that has a Wix tranny filter, Wix cabin filter, and Ac Delco plugs and wires on the way.

I think the only thing I still need to buy would be some Mobil 1, but i'll get that at Wal-Fart. Oh, and I need to stop by a Chevy dealer and get some genuine GM power steering fluid so I can change that too...Oh, and I just remembered, I need brake fluid too, since I plan on changing the front brakes./ rotors and flushing my brake fluid at 100K too.

Ok, so I still have a few things to buy, but i'm almost there. LOL. Had to buy things a little at a time so I was not slapped with $400 worth of parts/ fluids all at once. haha!

Brock I think it looks great.

Mike I just ordered those stems. I will either put them on the suburban or give them to my step dad for his chevy. Some one stole his chrome stem caps.
