What did you do to your G-Body today? [2011-2018]

I finished up installing a Pypes cat-back on my newest G-body. It was an all-day project and my back is killing me.

F*cking alternator died again. I'm gonna chock it up to the first one being 89,000 miles and the second being one I found in a basement that's been there for 17 years. Hopefully my car doesn't eat alternators now.

Made some A-Arm splash guards out of some masticated rubber sheet I got.

Beautiful! What kit did you go with... what mufflers also?

Thank Jeebus. It was just that stupid belt. I HATE cogged v belts. They're terrible. Alternator is fine.

New tires for the wagon, since it's doing duty as the daily

What are those bushings you used for the hangars? They look like end link bushings.

The bushings come with the kit. I had never seen them before either. They do work good.

Had the whole weekend and made some more improvements in the olds. Put the intake back on the engine after blasting it and painting, changed out the steering wheel for the sport one. The big deal was the GN 8.5 swap. All new UMI control arms 1 inch drop springs and the control arm braces and the shock brace as well. Still have to install the rear sway bar that mounts to the axle and the frame instead of the control arms.

You had a great weekend! Looks awesome.
