What are you working on today?

Nothing fancy but doing some pretrip maintenance as we have three vehicles and two trailers doing a 1600km round trip to the Royal Red horse show . Checked fluids on the diesel, everything still good from its maintenance earlier this year. I will check the brakes on the 6 horse as well.

The Ford Flex just needs a bath and clean out the interior so it looks less rez.

The third vehicle with trailer is a friend so if they ask for help great, if not, sucks to be them.

1999 Escalade: tried to recharge a/c but the system needs more attention than just a recharge. Also repaired a door check roller

2002 Tacoma: tightened squealing belt, replaced air filter, engine oil change, serviced manual trans with MT90 and serviced both diffs. Someone had previously encountered stuck plugs on the front diff:View attachment 350569

I chucked up both and at least took down the high spots and sharp burs.

Also a rodent had been snacking on the old air filter View attachment 350571

Those drain plugs look like they came off a Ducati.

I replaced a recently installed, but defective A/C condenser and receiver drier on my G35 today. It was annoying because I replaced the entire system with all new parts a few months ago and it was defective right from the start. I also received a defective evaporator, but I exchanged it before installing. Basically, two critical new pieces were defective out of the box.
