    How hard is it to scale LBZ fpr for lb7

    Well, I should have Singed back in a couple months ago and asked about this. Had I realized that there wouldn't be any improvements with Installing the LBZ FPR, I could've installed a New BOSH LB7 FPR while I was installing the HSP Turbo Intake Horn.

    He had a FORD Guy telling him it's probably the EGR Cooler. There 600 mile now from home, I'm thinking Head gasket also. I suggested keeping the cap vented & installing longer overflow hose towards the ground to keep the air filter dry, & LIMP home.

    If they lost heat, then they must have lost a lot of coolant. I'm not sure his power levels, but I explained to him this winter the importance of having the proper Gauges to monitor. Especially while towing.

    I hadn't thought about how close that vents to the air intake, but that could draw the coolant in. They broke down this morning in Portland Tennessee.

    COOLANT IN AIRBOX WHILE TOWING 5TH WHEEL : TRK TOOK A SH!$

    I'm waiting for them to call me. They didn't say anything about blowing a coolant hose, that would be easy to see. BUT I HAVEN'T SPOKEN TO HIM YET ? Having coolant in the factory air box doesn't make sense. I wasn't sure if the LLY turbo was coolant cooled. But if it was, there would be a...

    Apologize for the delayed response, took the wife & dog the Beach to watch the Sunset. The Tech said the round inboard end of the CV shaft was not clearing the front axel output shaft due to it being a solid round instead of the OEM Star shaped CV See Photos for comparison. Thank you...

    Well the GM Tech @ the Dealership couldn't get it in place. They took apart the Upper Control Arm Balljoint, Shock, Tie Rod end, Caliper & Rotor, and the Swaybar link. They where going to unload the torsion bars but couldn't locate their Tool.

    The Dmax Store is where I'd seen them 1st. Did some research and it looks like there're manufactured by TrakMotive & rebranded Dmax.
