    GMT800: 1/2T vs 3/4T for towing duty

    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...

    Yukon XL (9th Gen) Z71 equivalent?

    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...

    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.

    Is it leaking from the little plastic 90 that pushes into that fitting in the water pump? The female fitting is part of the water pump. The 90 just pushes in.

    That front pipe under the intake is difficult to look at. I used a camera. If it is the main water pump it's a very straightforward process. You'll see a lot of conflicting info online. The fan shroud is one piece on the 322 not two pieces like the lr4/sport. The fan clutch is reverse thread.

    Look in the engine bay. One the drivers side, inboard of the shock tower you'll see a heat shield. Behind that heat shield is the auxiliary water pump. It is an electric water pump that runs coolant through the heater core. The housing of that pump cracks. 3 nuts hold the heat shield on. Remove...

    Hopefully the pcv valves fix it. That's super easy on the 5.0 I have 12 hse. I do all of my own work. Just replaced both water pumps and the front crossover pipe last week. One tip... Change the oil yourself and use the oil pan drain plug not the evacuation tube in the oil filler neck. The...

    Redarc vs Ctek

    Thanks for the help! I emailed Redarc and they said the Manager 30 for 110v is ready to ship out of their North Carolina headquarters. I like the idea of having everything together in one neat package. Im really just going to be running my Snomaster 42, camp/scene lights, and usb chargers. I...
