    Power steering cooler

    Yes, to my understanding, that is correct. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Power steering cooler

    They are both factory oil cooler brackets. The OIL cooler (driver side) remained the same size so I used the existing brackets I started with. Side note: there is one size larger cooler from B&M/Long that is same width but taller that will fit, (you'd need to fab up an upper bracket) but it...

    Any preferances on brand of wheel cylinders?

    Go OEM or the most premium option that Napa offers. Either way it's probably going to have to be ordered and waited on to arrive. (AC Delco Professional is not same quality tier as AC Delco OEM) Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Hydroboost question

    Just dawned on me and my lack of basic understanding of your application may be the cause of my confusion... Did your 98 have factory vacuum booster? I'm most savvy in the 3/4 ton of the GMT400, more specifically the diesel 3/4 tons. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Hydroboost question

    Vacuum pedal? Thought you had hydroboost? Glad you figured out your issue, but could you clarify what you accomplished here? Maybe a few pics? Idk a single GMT400 owner that would decline the opportunity for better brakes. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Cost For Alignment

    We're rambling off topic. To the OP: Your alignment could cost as little as $200 for as long as you own the vehicle at any Firestone location (or $150 if you wait til spring promo). It is to be expected they will try to get more work out of you when you're there but there's no obligation per...

    Cost For Alignment

    You do realize you're letting them 'win' by failing to redeem your lifetime alignment and simply declining additional work... You do realize this don't you? OK, so the caveat to the lifetime alignment is that mildly awkward moment where you say "no" to all the extra when you go to pick up your...

    Cost For Alignment

    Same can be said about most franchised auto repair companies. Griping about how mechanics all rip you off has long become a socially acceptable complaint. Similar to unfavorable weather, or pollen season, or rush hour traffic, etc. Yes, I have gotten that list too, and at first I was convinced...

    Cost For Alignment

    I got a lifetime alignment from Firestone during a promotion when it was $150. Regular "menu price" IIRC was $200. Can be redeemed at any Firestone location nationwide and valid for as long as YOU own your CURRENT vehicle. Although guy at counter said there is some leniency on that rule say for...

    EVO power steering pump replacement....

    Make sure the new line(s) aren't at risk of chaffing anywhere. Any point at which the hose assembly is in contact with any surface, it should be an anchor/mount/zip tie. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    EVO power steering pump replacement....

    You take yours off existing pump and put it on new one. A good bench mounted Vise along with a selection of 1in and larger combination wrenches will do you a lot of good in that endeavor. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    wiper arms

    These arms are actually from a 99 GMC Suburban K2500 that I bought for parts a while back, but they fit & function just the same as my stock 97 arms. I had my arms painted up real nice and I stupidly opened the hood with the arms up and messed up the paint. I traded them with the ones off the...
