    Good morning CT.

    Happy last day of July.

    I have to replace the L/F caliper on my sister's Subie after work today. Should take all about 15 minutes.

    It's probably always there, but what are "points"?

    Cars ain't "cheap" anymore.

    Have to make sure that whatever people have lasts... a long time... forever.

    I miss the "Old Days".
    K5 Blazer used to be a truck until it morphed into a Tahoe.

    I lied. Took 45 minutes to do the caliper. I also recovered and recharged her AC.

    Good early morning CT. Happy first day of August.

    Went to bed early so now I'm up.

    Ordered a couple items on Amazon, battery terminals and a junction block along with some Auxbeam labels.
    I also just ordered some calipers and brake pads from rockauto.com Those should be here Wednesday.

    Parts should start showing up today and the next couple days. I work tomorrow but I have next Saturday off so I'll be able to finally fix my stuck caliper.

    Bought these: https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=6539160&cc=1502961&pt=1704&jsn=714

    If anything, they'll match my upper control arms. :thumbsup:

    Morning everyone, and happy Friday!

    Was up at 3 to get an early start with smoking a couple pork shoulders on the offset. Hopefully getting to happy hour tonight with some people I used to work with if the pork finishes on time.

    I'd argue it was still a truck (and still is) in Tahoe guise, albeit less so over the last decade. But the GMT400, GMT800, and even GMT900 to some extent are all definitely trucks
