What did you do to your G-Body today? [2019]

[Texas82GP]

Got off my can and swapped in the manual tilt column before I destroyed it in the mess that was my garage. It will get less messy in there if I have more days like this.

It's really gubby and the steering wheel is only slightly less sticky that the tan one. Am I blue...am I bluuuuuue...

One wire (white one) was damaged...I extracted the tiny connector, but had no luck spreading it open so I could reclamp it on the pruned back wire. Another day.

Done! I'm putting the word out there that I am looking for one of the tiny spade ends that go in the long narrow black terminal block on top of the column (red arrow). I also need to locate a new gasket for the toeboard plate. But I did make a trace of the old one before bolting it in, so I can fab one on my own if needed.

Thanks to Donovan and JAMCAR223 for the #12 chukka boots, one to each cheek.

Installed my UMI rear control arms, went together real nice. It’s nice to have 2 floor jacks, I had one under the diff to adjust positioning and the second to force the lower arm into the diff in front of the shock mount.

Ha, yeah I really need to mow since I've neglected it for a few days now while trying to get the right tune to keep this car running. Hopefully have a decent tune in the next couple days from MHM and be able to tweak it.

Park the mower - ones and zeros sent. Do work, Son.

White wire, T/S switch side? I got ya, PM your address, I'll mail one with some wire attached to you if that'll work

Installed the anti rattle kit on the drivers side and everything on the passenger side but the riveted piece in the door, by the time I got there it was almost 10p and our neighbors already don't like us so decided to wait until today. Installed the felts on the outside of the door while the windows were out and got the second ring installed on the drivers side. Hopefully today I get a ton done was hoping to be wrapped up by today but not so sure that is going to happen.
