    Which Tires?

    I run 305-50-20 terra grapplers on my Dodge, and am thinking of using those on my 04 Z-71 Hoe when my Goodyears wear out. I havnt seen any narrower ones on a tahoe, but I LOVE them on the Ram. Great tires, used Michelins and BFG's on my silverado's. I love the BFG's but they tend to run...

    check engine light help??

    Thanks guys. I didnt get a chance to do this yet, but did fuel up, and it went off afterwords, so maybe i need a new gas cap gasket, or my wife left the cap a little loose. I know it did come on for the emission leak before so i figured that is what it was. i'll buy one of those scanners...

    Speedometer stuck at 20MPH while stopped...

    When we had our baby in Nov, I left the hospital and it was 23 deg. Mine read 30 or 40 over, and was not reading in relation to our speed. After I got home, I disconnected the battery, and then its been fine every since. It was weird. I just assumed it was a glitch like the 4X4 button cluster.

    Bad Bearings

    I just changed right bearing. I noticed it more when I turned one way more than the other. I dont remember speed making much of a difference. Whine sounds like a rear end going out. I can tell you on mu 04 hoe, I needed a 36 mm socket to take center hub nut off. I had to go buy one from...

    check engine light help??

    The light is on, and I had my mechanic scan it. A pin hole in emissions somewhere. He did not have a smoke machine to find it, so he reset my light. again Its on again, and I wondered if there is a way I can turn the light off until I get it to the dealer to get checked?

    Throttle Body Mod

    I would love a true ram air intake on the Hoe, and my 2500 Hemi truck, since its my everyday truck. My book said in the US, you dont need to worry about the heat line in the intake. I will cite the book later, its a real good source on the LS style motors, and specifically trucks.

    Throttle Body Mod

    This has been done since the 60's. I helped a buddy replace the inline 6 cly in his falcon ( why he wanted to replace it with another inline is beyond me, I voted for a 302 or something). Anyway, it had the radiator hose from the radiator to the heater core run through the base of the carb. to...

    Throttle Body Mod

    I would say if it were a ram air system where you have more of a direct correlation between speed, and intake air pressure, it would. I dont know off hand how much speed it would take to force air in fast enough to make the difference you were talking about, but there might be a point in there...

    Go Buy an intake!! You will not be let down

    I have a K&N intake on one of my Z-71 trucks. I trimmed my intake tube to fit and left my fan alone. It worked fine for me, I just never thought of the fan blade trim idea. I also didnt notice much difference from the TBS, but it sounded cool. I dont drive that truck much any more, and now I...

    Throttle Body Mod

    I did this in 2004 when I bought the Hoe. I read about it in a LS performance book. I would cite it but I am in bed and to lazy to get up. LOL Not doing this mod defeats the purpose of adding a CAI. You would be heating the air back up after you bring it in outside engine bay. It only...

    2004 Wheel bearing

    Thanks for the help guys. I jacked it up, and it was the right one. It had play in it, and sounded like the bearings were gone when I spun it. The bolts were tough, but with a big enough impact gun it was pretty easy. It must have been that way for a while, because the half shaft splines had...

    2004 Wheel bearing

    Thanks. I thought that too, but then wondered if since it was pulling the right one out, it could do the same. I dont know.

    2004 Wheel bearing

    I have a wheel bearing on our 2004 Z-71 roaring. I bought a new one, but have yet to jack it up to figure out which one it is. If I even slightly turn wheel to the right, It starts. Any ideas? I greatly appreciate it in advance.
