    Tint Fix-It Ticket

    I hate having to follow these stupid laws. Like, seatbelt, tint, exaust, spinner rims, and let likes.... Give it another 20 years and we won't be able to make ANY choices on our own. I'm just waiting for them to do something like outlaw black vehicles because they're too hard to see at night or...

    Spark Plugs

    I also had switched to AC Delco Iridium (which i hear is what OEM is) and had those in for a while, then i decided i wanted to try something that would have a bit more spark. I switched to the Bosch Fusion IR's and it certainly made an improvement. I had read on the box that they claim it was...

Cutting off any...

    Rear end gear ratio change

    Air bags and big rims

    I'll be getting my rims in 5-6 weeks. and I'm getting my bags put on shortly after. But i don't want to buy the wrong rims and not be able to tuck them. I'm hoping i don't have to run 22's. I really want to run 24's but they HAVE to tuck! What offset should i look for? I had thought about...

    Rear end gear ratio change

    I can't find the gears i need, anyone know where they sell, either 3.73's or 3.90's for our trucks? I know it's an 8.5" ring gear, but don't know anything else about it. Anyone know a part number to Jegs or Summit or anyone else? thanks

    Tahoes with 4.8L V8....

    i have a 4.8L and don't mind it. If you put an intake, exaust, and reprogram it it will run nice and strong, and still be "decent" on gas. I don't have the 5.3 but i think i get better gas mileage. good luck with the purchase!

    Air bags and big rims

    i think i'm going with 24's, without a body drop, at least for now. I just want adjustability with my ride height, ride it up, and park it down. I'm going to check into the fullsizechevy.com like you said. i've emailed asking what the backspacing is on the rims i'm looking at, but here they are...

    Air bags and big rims

    I have decided (actually my wife is telling me) that i'm going to air-bag my hoe. I'm going with the Air-Ride Tech. Shockwave front end, and cool-ride rear kits. I'm ditching the spare tire and putting my tank and compressor there. My question is, I'm buying my rims in the next couple of weeks...

    Removing Roof Racks

    i just took them off, I used a torq bit (looks like one of these * ). It was 10 bolts and they were easy to remove. I didn't like the way the holes were raised, but i just got a stainless steel domed bolt that was shorter (about 1") and i put silicone on the threads and i also used a rubber...

    Removing Roof Racks

    what size are those bolts, and how long? I am going to go and try the silicon and domed bolt tonight. If i knew the size i could call around and find exactly what i need and wouldn't have to run around town test fitting bolts. thanks

    Removing Roof Racks

    I too think they look good w/o the rack and I'd like to know a good solution for this problem myself. I don't want any water making it's way inside my hoe. I guess maybe some shorter dome topped bolts would maybe work, but how do you make it good and waterproof? Thanks for any ideas.

    i'm running 265's at the moment. but i was swapping out for 305/40/22 in a few weeks. but it's looking like i will be going w/ a 305/35/23 or 305/35/24. Anyone running 23 or 24's with 4.56's or 4.10's? What are your highway RPM's like? Like 75-80ish @ ? That's my main concern, I hit the highway...
