Evening all. Spent the afternoon on n off working on the truck. Got it apart. I thot it was the slider pins on the calipers that ate a brake pad n rotor, but they seem ok. The piston seemed tight, so I ordered a new caliper n bracket. 200K+ on that one. Changed the oil, sealed a leaky transfer case, and finish it tomorrow, hopefully.
And the new dog, "Duke", well, I forgot to say he has seizures. He's had 2 in the last 3 hours. Just had one. Kinda scary, but he's had 'em for years. At least we know.
JG Mike, got some pic's of that shine???
Ryan, Glad you found your clips. I know you've been looking for a while for the right ones.
And finally, after YEARS of trying, My Rock'n Intimidator SS made the #1 spot on CarDomain! YEAH!!! #1 of 6,100! I know it won't last, but it's been a long up hill stride, after a bout with a couple of haters that took me down to about #250.
Thanks to ALL of you that have given me a 5 star rating on CarDomain.com. THANK YOU!!!

Ryan I made the mistake of buying a haynes manual. They give a decent over view. I have a factory service manual for the suburban. Thats why this has been irritating. Oh well I will get it fixed eventually. lol

So we had a club meet in ashland tonight, a 1.5 hour drive. I got an hour into it and I tuned back for the fog, so I drove 2 hours for no reason, and about an hour of that in fog where I couldnt see the road signs... I need to make that light bar.

Good SunDay `Member's,
WoW `Chris, great find 4 Sure...Less then 2K miles.
Would be a great Pace Car for a Collector, but I don't know
if I would want 2 invest that much as a daily driver.
I'm not into decals on a Monte, but many are into them.
*I like airbrush or painted graphic's : )
It is Taz'ed `Up 4-Sure.
Maybe `Lou will buy it & add start a collection,
or it would be a good investment for Moderator WizKidd : )
Thanks `Chris for posting/sharing.






WoW, only driven 1968 miles since 2001...
"Monte's should be driven, and EnJoyed
or put in2 a Museum or Space Capsule : )
