    1-2 inch lift

    Danny, I really like the looks of these rims and couldn't beat the price either. I ordered mine from Discount Tire Direct, had him here in 2 days for 395.00 shipped with caps and lugs. Pretty good deal I thought.

    1-2 inch lift

    I cranked the front end up approx. 1 1/2" still have threads left on the T bar bolts and added a 2" add a leaf which actually gained me 1 3/4' in the rear. The whole job only took a couple of hrs and between the larger 285-70-17 tires AAL and crank I gained the height I wanted, all for around 80.00.

    98 k1500 oil pan?

    I've got the same problem with my 98, have a few leaks and need to replace the pan gasket. I was gonna tackle this job last month and keep putting it off. I have also been told another option is to jack the engine up just a little bit and you can get the pan out. I really need to just bit the...

    Need help asap

    I trimmed the valance very little prior to cranking the torsion bars. I used a cut off wheel on my hand grinder, went from nothing on top down to 1" on the bottom. I decided I wanted the front end to set a little higher after doing that so I cranked the bars some. I still have 3/8-1/2" of...

    Need help asap

    I'm running 33's, spent about 80 bucks on 2" rear AAL's and cranked my TB's a little. I love the stance and no rubbing issues, it's not only a cheap mod but an easy install.

    Oil Pan Gasket Suggestions

    Thanks for the gasket information I'll be glad when this job is done, sounds like a pain in the a$$ getting the pan in and out.

    Oil Pan Gasket Suggestions

    I've had a few oil drips since I bought the truck and it's looking like "hopefully" the pan gasket is leaking, anyone prefer a certain kind/brand? I will probably also replace the gasket in the oil filter adapter while I'm at it. The truck's got 188000 well cared for miles on it so I'm hoping...

    2" block and crank?

    Something to keep in mind is a 3/4 ton truck sets a little higher then a 1/2 ton to start with.

    CD Player Replacement Storage Bin

    I'm going to remove my non-working CD player from the dash and looking for the storage bin to replace it with. I was originally going to install a CB in that slot but decided not to.

    Pleasure Doing Buisness With Chris.G.Jr.!!!!

    I'd been on the hunt for a factory stereo with a built CD player since I bought the truck last month and discovered the factory CD player wasn't working. I saw one of Chris's posts on here where he'd went another route and removed a stereo just like I was looking for. I contacted Chris and the...

    CCSB Picture Thread

    I saw that green truck while searching auto trader looks very nice! I found two black ones I really like, one with 72000 miles and one with 50000 miles both with 350's and in very nice shape but damn their a ways off.

    Strange Whining Noise?

    I may give something like that a try and see what happens.

    Strange Whining Noise?

    I don't think so, I was under the hood, under the truck looking and listening and I couldn't hear it at all, jump back in the cab shut the door and I could hear it again. The weird thing is the next day I could it at all, if it starts it again I'll begin hunting once more lol.

    Strange Whining Noise?

    I was Rock Auto's web site last night and saw their greats prices I hear them mentioned alot here on the forum and I see why. I am going to wait till the pump finally goes out before I go to the time trouble and expense especially since I haven't 100% narrowed it down to that.

    2" block and crank?

    My AAL added 1 3/4" lift to the rear and I cranked to level, that looks to be the same amount of threads I have left like in the pic above. The truck rides good and looks much better IMO.

    Strange Whining Noise?

    Just came in from the garage, jumped in the truck and turned the key on, fuel pump did it's initial whine and stopped no noise at all. I decided to fire it up and wouldn't you know no whining noise at all. The only difference between when I heard it earlier today and now is the engine temp, very...

    Strange Whining Noise?

    Yeah everyone I've ever been around had the same start up whine but mine didn't start having the constant whine til today. I also noticed that the whine doesn't get any louder when you increase rpms so thats making me lean even more towards the fuel pump, time will tell I guess.

    Strange Whining Noise?

    I'm kinda thinking maybe it's the fuel pump thats why I'm hearing it for a split second after the engine shuts off. I will try setting in it with just the key on and see if I hear it. I did call a local parts place tonight to price a new fuel pump in the event that's what it is, $249.00. I...
