Came in with the typical frozen tight pins, at least one in each caliper. The rear rotors are good shape napa premiums. Today he sends his wife to a horse...

    LML Knock and 150 psi

    Got a lml in that makes a knocking noise. Balance rate on cyl 7 was 10. Had codes for that and cyl 6 injection timing. Compression test showed 150 psi on 7 and good on all the others. Could see piston top damage with borescope. Tore it down today to find this. Sent from my SM-G990U2 using Tapatalk

    Best rotors

    A customer of mine has managed to warp his OE and now Napa Fleet front rotors ive installed on his 2018. What have you guys found to hold up to aggressive brake users/towing? These trucks are known for this issue. Thought maybe Napa's Fleet stuff might have been the fix.....

    LLY fuel pressure issue

    I am scratching my head over a LLY truck here. Came in with low rail pressure and extended crank symptoms. Truck would make max of 12k rail. Fixed his leaking filter head but still have both issues. Bottle tests indicated CP3 was the worse offender, both it and the injectors return a bit...

    4L60E diagnostic help

    How about an 09 Silverado 1500 2wd that sets P2764(TCC Pressure Control Solenoid Low Voltage) every time it gets up to temp. Runs like a top until it reaches around 170 deg, then trips the code and goes into fail safe mode. Using Mitchells diag instructions, it points to the TCM. But i am...

    Advise on this

    What length of shock do I use in this scenario?? One of those poor man's lift kits has been removed. Problem is they cut the uca stop completely off the frame. So at full droop there is no shock long enough, and a long lift kit shock is dangerously close to bottoming out. Do I need to worry...

    Bent rods

    I got to thinking that I've really not seen LML bent rods in person or online even. Like the good old days of running dual pumps on your stock engine type of bent rods. It does seem like people generally do not push the lml as hard. Seems like most owners are content with just a tune and level...

    2500 vs 3500 Rear springs

    Local horse guy wants to improve his 2018 2500 cc lb towing experience. He has roadmaster helper springs currently. I wander if 3500 srw rear springs are different. I notice both have 4 plys with the 3500 having 2 ply overloads with the contact stops on the frame. Is anyone familiar with a rear...

    LML engine knock

    Got a 2016 denali with only 13,000 miles on it here that knocks when cold. See vid.https://youtu.be/huiF1SzO7ME Just stock trans and fuel system tuning. While running, disabling injector 3 changes the pitch of the knock. It doesn't go away until engine is warm. I swapped in 4 new injectors...
