What maintenance have you done lately?

[deucescorner]

So my car came out of storage in end of April, and this is already what I've done so far:

Driver side outer tie rod
Driver side Upper table
Driver side Lower balljoint
A/C Line
Refill Freeon
Timing Belt
Water Pump
Accessories Belt
Power Steering Pump

...still to come:

Passenger side outer tie rod
passender side upper table
passenger side balljoint
Both front shocks(with my luck all 4 shocks)
Front pads and rotors
Tensioner pulley
plugs and wires

is it just me or do you guys also sometimes feel that with all the money that we've put in to maintain our cars that we're better off getting something newer but at the same token, with all the time/money we've put in, it's hard to just let it go, especially what I would get for the car.


ps my beater is also acting up on me

Need to recharge the A/C at some point, but I dont use it so I can put it off a little longer. Oil change this weekend, maybe some plugs.

deuces - that's a lot of front end work. How may miles? Roads rough up there or something?

I've got alot of miles on my car but still doesn't excuse the consistency of my suspension work.

Problem is that I have 225/35 tires withe Montreal roads. I think that we we're actually voted worst roads in North America a few years back.

Haven't had to do any maintenance really... oil change and I need to replace spark plugs.


Past due for the timing belt tho... CrAp!

Just got OEM front brake pads in the mail. Will do next week.

Will probably do cap + rotor + wires + plugs soon. Are you guys doing plugs changing them before the 105K interval? I'm only at 60k, but figure it might be worth the time/money since I'll be doing the work.
