    GMT800 rear end question

    I recently bought a 2002 Tahoe... within a week it began squealing from the rear end. Took it in to get a rebuild at a local shop. Had nothing but good reviews. Picked it up and he had filled it with regular ol' 80w90 gear oil. To my knowledge, these needed a 75w90 synthetic... He said...

    Exhaust rattle

    I just picked up a new truck, a 94 ecsb 6.5l At idle there is some vibration in the exhaust, which had recently been replaced with, I believe, a 3" system. I assume that its the larger dia pipe fitting tighter... What can I do about it? If I find the spot, what can I use to buffer it?
