I just had both front wheel bearing assemblies replaced prior to a new set of tires. I noticed the front tires were wearing funny and I hadn't hit anything to cause an alignment problem. It turns out the right side wheel bearing was worn out. When on the lift the tire could be wiggled about 1/4" side to side. The left side seemed ok, but since they both had 165,000 miles on them - both are now new. The bad news is this bearing assembly also contains the anti-lock brake sensors so the suckers are $550.00 each. The only good news to this repair is for the first time in a long time the parts cost more than the labor for the repair. I guess that is a good thing. But now I have new bearings in the front, 4 new tires and the best one of the rear tires is now my spare.

Took it to Costco to have them check why the TPS warning light was flashing again not long after they replaced all 5 sensors in the tires. They reset the system and checked the tire pressure. So far all looks good.

Loaded with wood and bikes. Heading out tomorrow for a 4 day trip. Might leave work early to leave earlier. I would like to hit the CAT scales on the way.

I installed an inline air pressure gauge on my rear air bags, and installed the fill valve inside my SUV, then I spent 90 minutes trying to figure out where I was loosing air pressure/redoing the air line connections, ended up being the gauge seal with the air line that was leaking just a bit... found it thanks to soapy water! ready for the first trip of the year!

Got the front windows tinted to match the rear. What a difference! I was skeptical at first, but it does make a difference down here in the TX heat. I also had them put the front strip across the top of the windshield.

Replaced #3 and #5 glow plug; #5 had gone bad and I replaced #3 because it was the last one on that side that had not been replaced.

That's on my short list for both vehicles. It sure does get HOT down here!

Replaced a wheel bearing grease cup, that's been "weeping" slightly since new. Got tired of wiping the little grease stripes off the wheel.
