    Front Lower Control Arms

    I haven’t installed these on a newer truck. I’ve read as K20 stated there will need to be some grinding for clearance. Or use a set of Knuckles from a older trunk in pick a part.

    TBI 454 Misfire

    I’m battling the same issue with my 95 Suburban 454. You might try inspecting the white wire coming from the knock sensor. Mine had rubbed through the insulation with the blue wire next to it. This sent full voltage to the ECM and retarded the timing causing a misfire . Sometimes violently. I...

    Tire PSI for hauling firewood

    IMHO the door sticker only applies to the original uniroyals that came on the truck. Tire tech has came along way in 30 years. Usually cheaper made. I run the max printied on the tires sidewall. Different manufacturers have different pressures on the sidewall. So recommendations for this or that...

    Dug into my front suspension today. Now I have a steering knuckle question.

    Sorry about that. I got it off of ebay a while ago. So I didn’t have a link for one.

    Dug into my front suspension today. Now I have a steering knuckle question.

    If you take the LCAs off the bars you won’t need to fight the keys. Other than backing the tension off of them.

    Dug into my front suspension today. Now I have a steering knuckle question.

    Installing them was easy. I cleaned up the bars and used never seize on the hex. Slid right into the new arms. Snug fit but I could move them by hand.

    Dug into my front suspension today. Now I have a steering knuckle question.

    I got the puller from eBay. Tolsen model 65042. I used it on my neighbors truck changing his Lowers also. It works perfect. No banging or cussing. Both sets were stuck and I made short work of them with my 1/2 impact.

    No power at 7000 feet

    I’m about 2 hours west of you along IH40. We go to Williams and Flag quite frequently. I have 4 TBI trucks. They all loose power when in town. I have however gotten better power results from 14X4 open air filters. It never gets hot enough in Flag to try cold air intakes. I’ve also found that...

    95 454TBI stumbling

    It turns out it was the wire to the Knock Sensor. The insulation on it and another wire next to it melted from being just under the exhaust manifold. It appears voltage from the other wire was crossing to the **** Sensor wire and sending voltage back to the ECM. I pulled the two apart and now it...

    95 454TBI stumbling

    A bit of an update. I noticed the wiring connector to the MAP was is poor shape. Broken wire insulation and exposed wire. I replaced it with a new connector and it’s running much better. Although there is still a rough idle.

    95 454TBI stumbling

    What would be a normal range for the fuel trims and O2? Does the Map readings look to be in a normal range? The injector spray pattern looks good. No dripping or damage that I can tell. When I installed the new injectors I used a new install kit. All new O-rings, gaskets, ETC. I will recheck...

    95 454TBI stumbling

    My 95 K2500 Suburban has a 454 4L80e and 4.10s . It recently jerked violently backfired and stumbled. I was able to limp it home about 5 miles. I found the button in the dist cap crumbled. I replaced it with a new rotor also. It still runs horribly. It’s running rich with black smoke from the...

    88-98 4x4 lower control arm compatibility

    Mine is a 1991 RCSB Z71. My coworker’s truck is a 1990 RCLB 1500. I didn’t have to do any grinding. I started a different thread with pictures of what I did. I did have an issue with a grease fitting but swapped it for a different one and solved my issue. If I remember correctly. I think it...

    88-98 4x4 lower control arm compatibility

    They had no issues with the alignment. I still have the results sheet in the glove box because they gave me a lifetime warranty. I had the set my camber to 0 and not 1.5 deg like the factory spec because I want my tires to sit squarely to the road and wear straight across. This truck is my daily...

    88-98 4x4 lower control arm compatibility

    I’m wondering if he has some other ball joints. I have done this to two trucks with no problems. Mine and a coworker’s truck. I had my alignment set a 0 camber so my tires would wear better.
