    👍 change Differential Fluid

    I used one of these pumps to fill mine; Available at Canadian Tire. Out of the bottle and into the diff (or tranny if you're doing that job). As for diff lube, I went with the Royal Purple Max Gear. Limited slip additives are already in there. 3 seasons on it now, zero issues. Red Line D4...

    For Sale C5 original black sport seat skins for sale.

    Here are some pictures. The only really obvious defects I can see are a tiny scuff (it's not a tear, just a surface scuff) on the driver seat bottom cover, and some of the stitching is popped on the driver side left kidney bolster. The latter is a typical wear issue, since many tend to use it...

    For Sale C5 original black sport seat skins for sale.

    Removed from a 2004. In fair condition, but I swapped them out for two tone leather. No blatant rips or tears, but normal wear. If your seat skins are really beat up, these still have plenty of life left in them. $100 for the set (driver + passanger). I'll get a shipping quote once I know where...

    Featured Side bolster air bladder repair.

    Thanks. Yeah, but more than double the price, and I would have to wait for them. With the mail being what it is right now, could take forever. In the end, these give me way more lateral support compared to the original bladders. Thanks for the compliment... and the belly laugh!

    Featured Side bolster air bladder repair.

    Reskined my seats over the winter, but this week I found that the driver side kidney bolsters would no longer inflate. My initial investigation revealed a hissing sound coming from one side when I would try to inflate them. I decided to open up the seat to see what was leaking. I pulled the...

    Featured Anybody using the COVID 19 stay at home time to work on their Vette?

    Not at all. I've found them to be very good in fact. Ordered a bunch from them, with no problems. In fact, the only hiccup to date occurred the year before last when I had to replace the rack and pinion, and ordered a rebuilt unit from them. The unit came from a shop in Texas, and immediately...

    Featured Anybody using the COVID 19 stay at home time to work on their Vette?

    Covers, 2x bolster foam kits, and 2x seat bracket and shim kits = about 1G. Canadian. The seat covers came from an Ebay seller in the States. The rest from Corvette Depot. I got really lucky on the covers, I was seeing pricing for genuine leather in the $1500 USD range at the usual places...

    Featured Anybody using the COVID 19 stay at home time to work on their Vette?

    Guilty as charged. Finally got rid of the black Naugahyde for some real leather... Also replaced the tired plastic nut shims on the actuators, and installed the bottom bolster foam and padding kit.

    What bulbs to run ?

    I replaced the 9005/9006 bulbs with 9011/9012 (7500K/8500K). It's a cheap and easy improvement. The tabs need to be modified, easily done with a Dremel and this guide; How to Modify HIR bulb bases For the fog lights, I replaced the OEM 899's with 885's (50w). This is a plug and play swap...

    Featured Magnetic drain plug is worth it's weight in gold!

    Got down to business today. Installed the new timing chain and sprockets. The Cloyes set is very nice. There's a total of 2 mm of slack in the new set. The Iwis Z chain is quite a bit beefier than the Reynolds. I also installed the chain guide. It's a 2004, so the 1.7" spacing, LS3 model guide...
