It is a 4L60E 4 speed with electronic overdrive, out of a 98. I want to appologize because there are going to be multiple questions to...

Besides i don't know the first thing about color.matching aand its all too much hassle for me. A couple of my...

    The Stupid Lift Questions Thread

    Well that's what I figured.. I was going to lower the bars and put the endlinks on. But cranking is probably what busted both in the first place. I've heard of adjustable endlinks, but never for stock suspensions. So I really don't know. I think I'm going to be smart and do away with cranking...

    The Stupid Lift Questions Thread

    I was thinking.. I have 2 inch add a leaf and 2 inch keys. Is there anywhere to buy a kit for lifting the front only? I thought skyjacker made kits for 2.5 in the front. If that's the case I could add 2 inch blocks in the rear right? And have four inches.. and crank the front or buy a kit for...

    body swap thread. gmt400 on gmt800 chassis

    I swapped the body on my gmt400 over onto another gmt400 frame. If I could undo all I did I would. All it did was make things worse. Amd the hours involved is rediculous. And your talking about a whole different frame here. Unless you have something else to drive amd tons of spare time, and this...

    A shocks question

    So there is no way to lift/level your truck without destroying your front end parts and ride quality? (Besides a true 4-6 inch lift)?

    A shocks question

    Thanks guys! And what about endlinks? Do i need longer ones? And I seen a skyjacker or superlift set of extended control arms for the front. This would lift it.. but would that help ride quality?

    A shocks question

    I have a 96 k1500 non z71 frame, underneath a 98 z71 body. When I swapped the frame, I put a 2 inch leveling kit. It rides nothing like it used to. Its so rough. It feels like there is metal rods underneath.. no shock travel at all. Me and my dad realized there isn't any shock travel. When I...

    throttle body spacers.. combatibility?

    From what I read, I agree. I'm going to test our theories out real soon and post results on horsepower gains/losses. I have a dyno at votech school and I can perhaps lost real dyno diagnostics. Have to clear it up with the autotech instructor first.

    throttle body spacers.. combatibility?

    I have needed to ask this question, and many others may have as well. I have a spectre cold air intake. The intake tube just snuggs into the original throttle body cover from the stock intake duct. I have heard of throttle body spacers making NO difference towards performance, but I'd like to...
