Lower Radiator Deflectors:
The lower plastic deflectors underneath the front

them with new ones.

New Wheel Bearings:
When I went to pack the wheel bearings, I noticed the original bearing races
had a slight blue tint on them where the bearing would run on the race. This
is a sign of heat and lack of lubrication. To be safe I decided it would be best
to replace the bearings. The original GM bearings were Timken, which I
believe are one of the best bearings. I purchased a full set from Autozone. I
am not a fan of Autozone, but at least they do stock Timken bearings at a
reasonable price.
