Get the 2500 suburban. I prefer the 6.0. It's proven to be insanely reliable stock, or with twin turbos and stuffed into a nissan. 3 months ago I bought a 2004 2500 LT burb with the 6.0. It had 134k miles. I paid $5000. The rockers are rusted out, it needed both front hubs replaced and a...

Carl, Get the 2500. I just bought a 2004 2500 LT with Autoride. 134k miles $5000. The rockers are rusted and I had to replace the front hubs and do a crank sensor relearn. I wanted the 2500 because of the drivetrain. I only looked for 6.0 not 8.1. I have a 2004 3500 box truck with the 6.0...

When I changed my crossover pipes, I literally poured oil out of the intake. I hate that these things don't have a dip stick. Every time I had the oil change at the dealer, it came back saying over filled. I started changing it myself to keep that from happening. I also changed the PCV...

No news is good news...right? Everything running good?

Oh man brings back memories! This was our 2006 RR back in 2016

What stereo head unit is that?

That's awesome. Hopefully that's the end of the issues, and you can focus on the upgrades.

Sounds fun. We had a crazy issue last year with ours. It would randomly die, and not restart for days, but then restart and run fine for weeks. Never any CEL or codes. We replaced the in tank pump and everything was ok... till it did it again 10 months latter. The dealer had it for 2 months...

I assume your tool doesn't show the fuel pressure? Do the plugs look wet?

I truly envy your patience. A lesser man would set fire to that thing and called the insurance company.

We got the RR back from the BG induction service today. It seems to be running better. It had a strange hesitation at low speed under maintenance throttle. Very slight, probably unnoticeable to someone else.

Are you sending them to be cleaned? I think injectorRX charges $45 per with new teflon seals for same day turn around.

How did the injectors look? I'm having an induction service done on mine Tuesday.

Ok cool. Good to know. Where did you find that? I always thought that elbow was a disaster in the making. Now if we could replace the plastic crossover pipes with something that's not plastic. I think the front pipe on the SC is metal.

So... how do you get the brass out? A new water pump comes with that installed. Did you press IN on the plastic collar and pull the elbow OUT. The collar is part of the brass fitting. You might be able to see it in the pic I posted of my old water pump.
