    Looking for opinions...

    So, I'm having a debate with myself about replacing my upper and lower ball joints. I've been reading a lot of info on Mevotech and just wanted to get some feedback as to whether I should go that route. Has anyone used that brand and if so, what are your opinions?

I took off all of the hoses for the cooling system and found that they were all caked up on the inside with rust and decided to play it safe and replace them all.

    Overheating Problems 98 K1500 5.0

    About a month ago I noticed my truck running a little warmer than it normally did. At first I didn't think anything of it until it happened again especially with my temp gauge not reading properly due to needing the sending unit replaced. Recently I replace both the sending unit and the temp...
