    Exhaust/cat temps...

    We towed a couple hours to race this weekend. I had never noticed it before but the passenger front floorboard got really hot. Truck ran perfect. No other issues. No check engine light. Wondering if it being low, having the front deflector etc.... might be keeping air from passing underneath...

    New dash for a '92???

    Friend of mine has a '92 with the typical cracked dash. I see dash covers at LMC etc... but no actual complete replacement dash. Is there such a thing?

    Some before and afters from our shop...

    This is a customer truck that we did last year. This is not the sort of thing that we nornally do. We're a production shop but this is a friend of the owner sooo.... We stripped it, fixed the dents, put cab corners in it and generally gave it the once over. Like a dummy I didn't get any pics of...

    Check my check list for my 454 injectors and such...

    Getting ready to do injectors on my 145k mile 454. I'm going with the Five O Bosch injectors. Also doing the Delphi FPR. While we're there doing the intake gasket and valve cover gaskets. I don't want to just throw money at it but don't want to miss anything that I should be doing at the same...

    Researching headlights gave me a headache...

    So I decided a couple of weeks ago that I'm going to make a change in the headlights on the dually. I bought all new lights when I got the truck including clear headlights. They don't have anti-glare caps. The stock 9005's and 9006's in those housings are just not cutting it even after doing the...

    Lowered Dually guys step inside....

    Few questions for those of you that have done a 5/8 on a dually..... I've looked through the shock thread but not sure which shocks are right for the dually. I had already replaced all 4 on my dually before lowering. Will they work or do I need shorter? The rear sits virtually on the bump stop...

    More helper bag questions........

    I'm trying to make up my mind on lowering my '96 C3500 CCLB dually 5/7 static. I already have the Belltech kit in hand. It has helper bags now. Unknown brand but appear to be the Air Lift 5000's . These bags are mounted on top of the rear end housing and to the bottom of the frame. I know I'll...

    Little help with C3500 upper control arms........

    My '96 CCLB Dually needs upper control arm bushings and ball joints. I see Moog complete control arms on Rock Auto (MOOG Part # RK621233, RK621234). Rock Auto says that they fit all of these....... CHEVROLET C1500 SUBURBAN (1995 - 1999) CHEVROLET C2500 PICKUP (1989 - 2000) CHEVROLET C2500...

    Our electric powered dragster on Discovery Channel.....

    We are going to be on Fast and Loud Demolition Theatre tomorrow night (1/5) @ 9:00 central. Our starting line back flip is one of the featured crashes. It was very cool to get to go to Dallas and meet the FnL guys in person and be one of their "couch" guests. They took super good care of us and...

    Changed fuel pump and sending unit. Now no fuel gauge....

    Today was fuel pump day. When we got it out of the tank the tab that locks the float in place was cracked so I decided to buy a new sending unit to be safe. Installed the unit and it runs fine but fuel gauge was on "E" and wasn't moving. I put more fuel in the truck just to make for sure. During...

    Door buzzer issue......

    There was no buzzer on my '96 dually when I got it. I got one from a friend's truck and put it in but now it won't stop buzzing. Goes off when the key is out but any time the key is in it buzzes. Turning on lights etc.. makes no difference. Any ideas where to start checking? I'd really like to...

    '96 7.4 issue...

    My new to me '96 7.4 dually tripped the check engine light about 200 miles into the 400 mile trip home. It had lean condition codes for both banks. The previous owner had the o2 sensors and intake gaskets replaced a couple of months ago. Truck idles fine and runs fine at part throttle and...

    96 C3500 CCLB lowered 454 Dually project........

    Hello everyone!!! I just got home last night with my new/old truck. I've had several GMT400's in the past but haven't owned one for many years. I'm a drag racer and I decided that I wanted to build a 454 dually to pull my trailer and to drive on a pretty much daily basis. I had a ECLB dually 454...
