Gearing up for Spring 14'

[sleepyalero]

Well, I'm bored at work. and figured why not make a pointless thread? sounds great right, yeah okay.

so as most of you know, the car is being stored this winter (again) and now i am going to be "fixing" her up with some small issues, while also adding a few new things.

first off, the car is on jack stands, no wheels on it at all. been up in the air for about 2 weeks now. my 18s are still for sale. with one bite but who knows how it will go. once the rims sell i will be removing the tires off them and using them on my new wheels, right now i have 2 new wheels... still need 2 more, but they are still a secret, probably until spring when i can actually get the car out of the garage.


next up, get stock tails. i sold my led tails and now im in need of some new stockers. so thats on the list. and they arent easy to find.


also, remove both front axles and take them in to an axle shop. the outter CV boots are ripped on both driver side and passanger side (driver side is worse) i dont know what caused it. but they leaked axle grease all over my wheels last summer. and im just now getting to it. really dont want new wheels covered in axle grease, (especially because they arent cheap) and ive been meaning to get this taken care of. depending on weather, they might get removed tomorrow. then quoted for boot replacement.

I will also have to go to GM for some trans fluid to replace whats lost when pulling the axles out.

still have some other things for sale too that im trying to push along to help fund this stuff.


plan on cleaning up my brake calipers as well as the wheels are off, gives me the advantage. and whenever i hit 200k miles the car will get an oil change as well, but its only been out twice since ive put it away for the winter. (weather permitting) but now the car is not drivable... i mean unless i dont care to have tail lights.



thats it for now, i dont think ill be fixing anything else for the time being, the car is in pretty solid shape still (which is good) just the pesky CV boots need done.



Oh ans cant forget finish tuning with paul. But that wont be till the car is out of hibernation.
