What did you get done? 12/10

I had a fairly productive weekend even though I was on call. Saturday I got up early and spent some time cleaning trucks. I got my 06 Crewcab detailed and finished detailing the interior of my 04 Dodge Quadcab so I could take pictures. I put my Dodge in Truck Trader last week and needed to ad some interior shots but had been getting home after dark.

I pulled the rear wheels off of my 84 Z-28 and inspected the rear suspension. Unfortunately every piece of chrome has rust on it, but the painted surfaces look like they may clean up. I went to my local tire shop and got two tires to replace the dry rotted tires I had. I scored two like new 15's for $20.

I spent the rest of the day taking my daughter Christmas shopping and running service calls. Saturday night we went to a Christmas party.

Sunday I was back up early again. I got the two fresh tires back on the car so I could set the rear on the ground. I jacked the front up and pulled the front tires so I can replace them too. While jacking I heard a pop and saw something fly. I found the remains of dry rotted urethane sway bar bushings scattered under the car.

While I was under there I pulled the drain plug and let the old oil drain out and dropped the old filter. While the oil was draining I replaced the gas struts on the hood. It actually holds its self up now.

I spent the rest of the day running service calls ....

What did you get done?
