    Time to Get Serious With 4L60e/4L65e Cooling...

    Long story short, I'm fed up with the inadequate transmission cooling these trucks come with. This suburban has killed 3 4L60e's and almost killed the 4L65e this past weekend. The cooling system is not up to par. Towing our 21 foot ski boat this past weekend for the first time since 2005, the...

    ACDelco 2173029 v. ACDelco 19210687

    Anyone know the difference between the two fuel injectors??? It's come time for me to replace my original poppet style (FPR failing, getting fuel pressure bleed-off, weird idle, lack of power, horrible MPG, etc.) and aside from the price, I can't find any difference between them. It seems like...

    Hey guys, tried searching everywhere and haven’t had any luck turning up anything. I need to figure out how to lengthen the driver’s side rear parking brake cable. I found the adjuster, but it looks like it only can shorten or lengthen the passenger rear cable with the threaded adjuster. Any...

    Shorty Headers Worth the Money?

    Currently tossing around the idea of putting shorty headers on my truck. No preference on brand yet, just had a real good look at the exhaust manifolds while I was working on the truck and can't help but think they're extremely restrictive. I've been doing some surface level research and it...

    Rear Window Regulators?

    I've tried searching, but all I've seen is recommendations to get some from a JY. My rear window regulators are failing and I was wondering if there was anyway to fix them. It seems like there is no replacement option, aside from getting a set of the JY, but I'm afraid that those wont be in any...

    Temperamental Brakes When At A Stop?

    Sitting at a red light for more than 1-2 minutes, the brake pedal goes from firm to mushy and the truck starts creeping forward. I push my foot on the brake pedal harder to stop. My foot almost reaches the floor before it stops the truck again. Then the brakes return to normal once driving...
