It’s been awhile since I spent any time on the GT. I had to replace a fence on the South side of the house and that triggered a bunch of yard work to spiff things up around the house. Cleared a bunch of brush out and hauled in and spread 10+ yards of bark mulch so far. More to go however.
The work on the GT was a welcome change of pace. A couple easy jobs today. I installed the LED headlights that I ordered from LBCarCo which arrived yesterday. Super easy install as they just plugged right in to the factory plugs. Plenty of room for the finned LED’s in the headlight bucket.
I s-ent more time buffing the bezels than I did installing the lights.
Decided to deal with the front end. The new tie rod ends that I installed as part of the front end rebuild weren’t an exact match so that spinning the new ones on the exact same number of turns the old ones were, left the wheels visibly splayed out. Rather than spending a bunch of time fooling with a string, I wound them in enough to get them closer so that the alignment shop can take over and do a proper job. Starting to get pumped about really driving it beyond the church parking lot across the street.
