Fixed the a/c in the 85 ram van...started waxing and rubbing out the factory paint, since it is brown that proves one theory wrong...you can polish a turd

FINALLY did the dreaded heater core in the 88 GMC. What a pain. I don't care what anyone says about dash removal, you gotta do it. Took me and a buddy about 5 hours in the scorching heat but it is done!

Nice work Gentlemen!

Spent a little time behind the wheel, (50 miles,) and under the hood of the Xplorer Van. One last AC clutch bearing assembly to go in the rotating serpentine belt drive. But having to still diagnose an annooooyyyying squeal.

I believe it was a mistake to replace the tensioner bearing only, and not the entire tensioner when I was in there previously. Remedy that when it gets done. Backup arriving this weekend to help me tackle the backbreaking to me work. Ha!.

Very good point about having help in the heat of Summer. Be aware of the dangers of heat exhaustion in the Summertime, especially us older guys. Always have a phone handy, drink lots of water, work safe and take lots of cool breaks.

Safety Always First. It pays off in the long Van Run

Finally finished the catback project with new Walker midpipe, tail pipe and Flowmaster Super 44, along with new GM donut flange gaskets, and took a drive for the first time in months, felt good to be behind the wheel of it again.

I cut off part of the end of the tail pipe so there was just enough for the new Jegs tip to clamp to,only problem now is the Walker band clamp isn't getting tight enough and the tip rotates around while driving.
