did my rear brakes this weekend. man the video i watched(never did those new style drum brakes)made it look easy. it was i guess, but putting that lower spring back on needs some getting used too!! now just to adjust them. it rained most of the weekend.

Went down and bought an 8 foot step ladder today... Dropped the front seat, slid it in and closed the gate. Shocked several people in the parking lot who "just knew" it wasn't gonna fit in there. lol

Today's the 5 year anniversary of my 2011 HHR purchase! To celebrate yesterday I purchased a new set of Goodyear Assurance ComforTread tires. The previous set of Goodyear Assurance TriplTred only lasted 80,150 miles. They even had more use left in them but it was time.

Today changed back to just the hose from the valve cover to the stock elbow at the throttle body. I ordered a new hose from RockAuto and I browsed abit and found two rear lift gate struts on sale so I replaced those tired old OEM units, that gate really did lift itself, I don’t remember those days they musta failed so gradually I didn’t notice!

Wow, you're on a roll.
I'm still doing some cleaning & waxing when I get time, I do so much, then get back to it as time permits.
