Is there anything in a DIY you 3rd gen people would like to see? Do you have something that has not yet been posted? When doing a DIY, pictures and/or video are highly recommended!

Thanks!

How to do a tune-up!

I'm 19, and I was never into cars or trucks because I was more into computers back then...
and well I'm into cars a lot now! But that doesn't mean that I know how to do stuff to it...

fluid changes like front and rear diff with the cover removal, and what sealant to use
trans fluid, pan drop with a filter change
upeer and lower ball joints on a 4x4 and what tools are needed
how to install u joints (properly) ( i paid some guy 40$ a joint and he beat em in with a hammer) o and how to fix an emergency brake assembley. mine exploded a a few months back and i just pulled all the internals out and put the rotor back on.



that should do it if i decide to do any of this before a DIY is put in i will be sure to take pics and make one

i did my little fog lights back there, picked them up form autozone and they were about $65, wiring was easy... with the help of eddie, Blackouthemi. but we put the wires under the metal cross section right before the radiator. ground, well find a part that isn't colored. and to make it hold, we used the 3m double sided tape. so far, so good with the tape. we put it on like about 4 months ago

There are a lot of helpful DIY's in this section, 3rd Gen's keep it up!

I would like to see someone with their own powder coating setup show us some of the projects they have prepped and baked themselves.

I would really like a write-up on diagnosing a/c issues, especially blend doors and such. There are a slew of bad videos out there that do more talking than actually getting down to finding the problems and making educated decisions.
