    1 ton torsion bars in my 1/2 ton?

    Well that blows. Sounds like it's just as bad as cranking the 1/2 ton bars...

    1 ton torsion bars in my 1/2 ton?

    I'm also curious about doing this. What do you all need for the swap and is it better than cranking the 1/2 ton bars or does it put the same amount of stress on the front end components?

    Round u-bolts

    I've been thinking the same thing. How thick of steel do you think will work if I made my own?

    Round u-bolts

    I just bought 3 in blocks for my 98 Chevy ext cab and in the instructions for the blocks it says the round u-bolts should never be used in a square u-bolts application. The kit has rounds ones and the truck has square ones but in the instructions the new bolts wrap around the axle. Will these...

    Blinkers and reflectors

    It's a 98 ext cab. I'm working on blacking out the front end so I really like those smoked lenses and the all clear lenses but I don't want to get pulled over for anything customers its my dd. Not sure what the laws for Minnesota are. And I would like the bulbs clear if it's allowed.

    Blinkers and reflectors

    I need some help. I just blacked out my front end and I can't stand the yellow/orange of the blinkers and reflectors. Any ways I can change the colors of those? Reflectors for sure, blinkers I can live with. Links and pictures would be awesome! Thanks!

    So many options, Don't know what to do!!

    Would dropping in the 4l80 make my mileage go to crap?? I don't care much but I'd like to show this thing off as much as possible without getting absolutely railed at the pump haha That OptiShift controller looks bada$$. Can it do all the tow/haul modes, paddle shift, and all that other stuff?

    So many options, Don't know what to do!!

    I've read that before... Are you saying do the computer swap on top of the 5.3 swap? or is it a necessity for the 5.3 swap? And would this be a good base to start off of?? http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/pts/2964458795.html

    So many options, Don't know what to do!!

    Okay I'm fairly new to this site and I love it! I have a 98 xcab that is a beast but its getting up there in miles. I plan on pulling the tranny and beefing it up a bit and I figured might as well do the engine while I'm at it. I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do as far as rebuilding...

    Rebuilding l460e

    And what am I going to find out by doing this? And how do I interpret the results. Sorry but I'm new to the whole tranny scene.

    Rebuilding l460e

    Okay thanks, I might try that boost valve if I have time but did you use the vette servo or one of the built ones that run about $75? As for the line pressure test, can I just take it to a local shop and have them do it? And if so how much will it run me? I hate paying someone an arm and a leg...

    Rebuilding l460e

    Is the boost valve in the valve body along with the tcc valve? What does a boost valve do? And should I replace it while I'm at it?

    Rebuilding l460e

    I've got a 98 with with 209 on her and still running strong. The only problem is the tranny is going out in it. While I was away at college my dad was driving it and noticed that the engine wound dance up and down about 100 rpm's when when cruising from about 45 - 65 mph. Its been doing it for...

    answer to any 4l60e trouble

    I think I might have #25 but I'm not 100% sure. When going 50 to 65 mph the rmp's jump up and down about 100 rmp's all the time but it only shudders and vibrates the truck some of the time. I want to try to fix it by myself and I have a couple ideas of what it might be but I just want to make...
