Rides much better/smoother now. Didn't realize how bad the t-drop had things out of alignment. SYE, custom driveshaft, and had to shim the rear 8* I believe.

In the next couple of weeks going to pull it into the garage and cut out/grind off as much of the rust as I can and put chassis saver on it until I do the rock rails.

Besides the O2 it's been running great. Put on about 300 miles this last two weeks. Sye made everything so much smoother. Only issue now is cutting out the rust and the a/c system. Haven't used it in years and went to try it the other day and never got cold. Going to buy one of those recharge cans and give it a shot.

The downstream O2 sensor is pretty much rusted in place and has some external corrosion. So going to soak it in PB blaster today/tonight then let the engine run for a bit to get the exhaust nice and hot and try to remove it again tomorrow. Tried last night and all I ended up doing was almost rip off the exhaust.

Still need to get rid of the rust. Going to do that in the next week or two, but I liked this shot I took at the gym over the weekend.

Also, will get pics of the driveshaft and SYE soon too. Been meaning to do that.

Also, I keep at OBD2 Bluetooth scanner hooked up to monitor stuff while driving and this happened. Made me definitely laugh.

Still looks good. Surprised you got the larger tire to fit in the rear spare tire holder. I had to strap mine down in the rear.

I didn't.

It is held in place with a strap tied down to the spare tire holder and a 2x4 behind it to keep it off the window. Also can't lock the back seat seat back in place. :lol: But since no one ever sits there I figured it wouldn't matter.

The wife just hit 11 years and 182,000 miles with her 2003 GMC Envoy.
All gave some, some gave all.

America is not at war, the US military is. America is at the mall.

There's nothing quite like the feeling of coming back from a deployment to a warzone.
