Hmm, maybe ill be gettin some help from you on this one haha, i have no idea what im doin when it comes to trannys

I got you covered man! The Servo is pretty easy! Minimal skill required. I used the write up on here, GMFS and a two minute Youtube video and had it done no problem alone. The trans cooler I'm going strictly off the write up on here! Either way I'm more than happy to help any way possible just shoot me a text or give me a call when you do it!

Got a picture of mine next to a clean black long bed also with a Rough Country lift and it was on 35s...... You can tell that mine is just about as high on 33s! I would have backed up to be even with it but there was a car behind my space. The only difference was it had a little rake and the AAL in the back was a little higher than my 3/4 ton leaf springs in the rear but mine sits level

So I was out of town and didn't run my truck for three days and this morning before my class I started it to let it warm up. It started fine and ran for about ten minutes. I turned it off to use my key to lock the house door and thirty seconds later it started and died right away then would just crank and crank but not turn over. While it was cranking steam/smoke was coming out of the exhaust pipes and it smelled really bad. Any ideas what it could be?

So my truck is losing a ridiculous amount of coolant but I can't find any leaks. On Saturday it nearly over heated and I pulled over and it took almost two whole jugs of coolant. Then this morning I start it to go to school and after like ten minutes of idling I noticed it running a little warmer than usual and it took nearly another jug! Any ideas of what could be going on? I was told either an intake manifold gasket or a head gasket. Any way to know for sure?

Does the oil look like peanut butter?

I just got home from school and checked it. The oil looks perfect! I was already planning on an oil change this weekend though

Well it's leaking somewhere while running or burning it then. Any white smoke while driving? Sweet smelling exhaust?
