You may have nailed it. I remember now that I had seen the passenger side front frame rail almost wet looking. I put a radiator in it this summer when I replaced the water pump. However, when I did the intake gaskets I was sitting on the radiator support and may have been a little liberal with...
Alright so I did the lower intake job about 6 weeks ago. Since that time, I have had to fill the reservoir up twice. Well, check it again today and it was low again. Changed the oil and didn't have any signs of coolant in it. Looked like oil. Poured the old oil into the empty jug ang measured at...
Member here asked about squeeking and rattling coming from the front over bumps. Sway bar bushings and end links were the likely culprit. I too had the same symptoms, and coupled with the fact that my Tahoe (@169K and with many of them riding on a lift in its previous life) had more body roll in...
Go ahead and but the fel-pro gaskets with the metal core. Part number MS9800T. It comes with all the gaskets to completely redo the top end, but only comes with one valve cover gasket as that's all you have to remove to get it done. I ordered another to match, part VS50293R. If you haven't done...
Yep, I just did this tonight and OH MY GOD what a difference. The squeeks and rattles are gone. And the damn thing actually turns when you turn the wheel instead of rolling over. It was a pain in the ass however as I was unprepared tool wise.
Jack the front end up so that the tire's are hanging . Grab the tire at 12 and 6 oclock and try to push in pull out. Do this again at 3 and 9 o clock. If any of them move significantly, you have bad ball joints (12 and 6) or tie rod (inner & outer).
Every OBS I have ever seen at one point or another has had a set of 285/75/16s on it. I have heard of no adverse affects other than maybe a minor scrub when turning at lock. My torsion bars are turned as to level out the front, and my last set of tires were 305/70/16s and I had no problem. If I...
Just did the lower intake gasket job with the good fel-pros, and replaced the lower intake bolts when I was in there. I have a suspicion that I am getting coolant in the oil. However, I don't notice any coolant missing. I don't know if I am just being paranoid or what. After I did the job I...
I was about to freaking cry. I had put so much time and effort not to mention money in it. Really funny and interesting how things like that can cause a problem only under certain conditions.
Most of the two in two outs I have seen have been custom due to the fuel tank being right there. Sure there is some kind of liability issue or something, who knows. For the price I have seen most cat backs, you could get custom work done and come out ahead.
You may be able to look in the glove compartment and check the RPO codes. There is a website somewhere that decodes them all. NP8 may be an RPO code, I am not sure. I was always under the impression that if you got a switch that matched what came out you were fine(ie some have the auto 4wd...
Good deal. Like I said the magnaflows appear to be the way to go. I know walker also makes one but people's opinions didn't seem to be too high on them. I would also go ahead and get 4 new 02 sensors and get AC Delcos. Some people say that you only need to get the two pre cat sensors, that the...
I have the same truck. I got the best deal off of amazon. Like 320 I think. That is strange your truck goes into a single muffler inlet. Does it have CA emissions or been replaced at some point? If you're redoing the entire system I don't see why you couldn't go with the 2inlet 1 exit style.
I did the lower intake job, new MPFI, and new cats and 02s. This weekend was the first I had ran the truck. Cleared all the codes out, and took it for a spin. Truck idled and ran really smoothly. When I punched it, it down shifted and would wind up to 4500-5000 and then stumble, and really...
Do some research before you buy. Everywhere I read said that the Flowmasters fitment was junk, and the bungs for the O2 sensor were not in the right location, and there were too many so you would have to cap some off, but they don't come with plugs and supposedly they are hard to find. I just...
