In last few days
- OE hitch
- fuel filter
- transmission filter, fluid, gasket
- pads, rotors, fluid flush
- upper rear front arms
- rear sway links
- left thrust bushing (right getting done by someone else..)
- steering fluid flush (what I could)
- pulled all under panels to check for rust, leaks, whatever
- hood sensor

Still a few things to wrap up by end of week and it should be baselined nicely.

Talking Fixed tail lights, prepping for belt/pulley refresh

With some help from my cousin's buddy, the tail light hackjob has been corrected. Now I'm waiting for my new waterpump, belts, pulleys tensioners etc to come. Got one pulley that's got some give, and finally figured out the noise on startup is the belts, so just going to do all the pulleys FPOM.



Hoping to get around to the rear subframe bushings soon, too :P

Installed new Arnott rear air coils yesterday. Original right rear coil blew out 5 days ago. It took about 3 hours, mostly because I have the rear cargo tray, which is a PITA to remove. Now it is back to normal ride height, and seems to ride better than before.
