    Trusted websites for new/used parts that are not priced to the moon.

    If I can add my 2 cents to the whole 100% bumper to bumper coverage... I wouldn't suggest using that site even if indeed it did exist. There are just some things available from certain specialists that will always beat the pricing/availability/quality of a generic supplier. I wouldn't buy a...

    That might be true, but who needs to grow bigger when you've had enough caffeine to vibrate ;)

    ProRYDE Leveling kit?

    My '97 fit 285/75r16 (~32.8") on 16x9 on stock height with a little crank in the keys - no trimming. They looked a little small on a 4" suspension lift though. @Caman96 is right though..... no matter what you do, anything above stock is still additional strain on the front end parts, even if it...

    ProRYDE Leveling kit?

    Really depends on what you're after. IMO, yes a lift is superior, but if you're sticking with stock tires, you may just want to crank your stock keys up a little and get it aligned right away afterwards. It'll give you a better leveled look without costing you much at all. or if you're trying to...

    ProRYDE Leveling kit?

    Ha! Well said. The consensus is pretty much you can crank the front stock keys, get it aligned, and deal with worse ride quality. Or you can buy aftermarket keys that allow you to crank it wayyy beyond what it was ever supposed to be (aftermarket keys are just indexed slightly higher than stock...

    New tools!

    The shop I work for has one of these U-Joint pullers and I recently went ahead and bought myself a medium duty one of these (10104) (since I actually don't have one of these trucks anymore... I just stick around for the amazing community and I do still love these trucks) because I have a 1-ton...

    Por-15 on frame question

    Looks good man! and yea it STICKS! for some reason no one really understands until they actually use the stuff. It will definitely be on your hands for at least a week or 2. If you got it up your arms or elsewhere it'll be longer yet.

    4wd trans and transfer In 2wd truck?

    Fair enough. Maybe where it's because its where I'm from (where 4wd in a daily is a necessity in a truck), but a 4wd tranny with a t-case in good running shape is worth double that of a 2wd. In that sense it would be cheaper because you'd actually make money selling the one you have and buying...

    99 k1500 suburban 5.7 vortec upgrades

    I used blackbear, and although I have no experience with the place in NY, I was 150% satisfied by the guys at blackbear. Very helpful and knowledgeable.

    99 k1500 suburban 5.7 vortec upgrades

    I spaced my o2 sensors out when I deleted the cats after they rotted out and it worked flawlessly for a few months - except i used actual o2 sensor spacers i bought from a local parts store. they're fairly cheap on amazon After that I sent my ECM down to Blackbear and they just tuned them right...

    Why are expensive hand tools better than cheaper ones?

    Well said man well said. Of course this group is civil! I think this is one of the last known places on the internet available to the public that still has respect for differences. The debate comes down to whether or not you think its worth it or if you're getting ripped off. For most guys...

    4wd trans and transfer In 2wd truck?

    The tail shaft of the transmission would be different, but I don't see why you couldn't hang the 4wd trans and t-case in it if you modify the driveshaft. I think they're the same U-joints. It would just be a useless transfer case. Personally, you'd be better off selling the good 4wd one with the...

    Why are expensive hand tools better than cheaper ones?

    going back a way in the thread, but I bought a Husky box for my shop a couple years back now and absolutely love it! It's well thought out and really tough. One of the boys in the shop had one too and he's fairly infamous for being ridiculously rough on his stuff and it's been 4 or 5 years now...

    The build of "Wh4t3v3rs"

    New parts is a special sort of feeling! Very specific, but everyone knows the feels.

    Having trouble finding the right universal joints to buy

    Ah haha yea sorry :rolleyes:. I was in the same boat. Thought I'd pass on some of the pain lol. The only ones I've ever used are from tigertool, but as far as i know they're a local BC company. I work in a heavy duty shop and we bought the largest one available and beat the living piss out of it...
