I replaced the front and rear U-joints in my Suburban. What a difference! It used to be scary to go 60mph. Now it easily hits 75 on the highway.
Out in a field down the road, there's a paved strip. Hehehehehe... I would have never thought 95 was possible in my suburban. Although my Uncle got pulled over going 115 in his truck of the same generation. I could even still see through my mirrors without them shaking. I love driving it now.
Freshly waxed that day. One day I want to restore the factory Orange paint. Maaco brown looks (quite literally) like poop. Somebody must have touched it up as there are no drips and there are only signs of bondo in only a couple deep scratch marks.
If you don't have the time to do it right, when will you have the time to do it over?
