    The GM is coming along!

    Alrighty-
    Most of the stuff I wanted to do to the GM is done or the parts are on the way. Windows tinted, Kenwood deck and speakers installed. New radiator core support and center air deflector installed. New fuel filter installed. I have the transmission filter, 180 thermostat, upper radiator hose, rear end oil and RTV. Trickflow plenum is on the way. Rear sway bar, brackets, nuts/bolts, and endlinks are on the way. Need three gallons of coolant, left and right air deflectors,lower radiator hose, maybe a 70mm throttle body-(undecided as of yet), and six quarts of Mercon V. Mid-term I will need new brake rotors in the front and some nice pads, it would be nice to replace the shocks. Long-term I think the walker dual system is the cherry on top.
    2004 Mercury Grand Marquis LS
    185 degree stat. 21mm rear swaybar with moog end links, Moog progressive rear springs.
    JLT intake, B&M transmission pan, 2.25 inch duals, magnaflows, Powerstop drilled/slotted front rotors and ceramic pads. Kenwood Excelon deck, Kenwood 6x8 3-ways all the way around.

    that's a lot of work. nice stuff.

    I'm curious why new gear oil at 40K? or does it have more mileage on it now?
