    Ball Joints Won't Last

    The truck isn't a daily driver anymore, I'm running 33x12.50's with 20x10 -24 offeset and stock control arms, nothing crazy. What james said about them being clocked correctly when installed is a big part of my problem, I was not aware of that. Thanks james

    Ball Joints Won't Last

    It's the lifetime warranty ones from O-reilly's, but I have used kryptonite in the past and they didn't do much better, they lasted maybe 20,000. My torsion keys are cranked putting the front end maybe 1.5" up from stock. It is a little lower than level.

    Ball Joints Won't Last

    I am getting tired of replacing upper ball joints, they are lasting me 5,000-10,000 miles. Do you guys have any ideas?

    LB7 - Ultra Reliable 600 RWHP Build

    I may catch some flak for this but my cousin has the fingers oval pistons and the things I have heard about them causing a truck to haze and smoke more definitely turned out to be true, I don't think the fuel mileage would be quite as good either with that design. The mahle race cast have been...

    Socal/Wagler Street Rods, Mahle Race Cast Pistons, ARP Head & Main Studs, New Stock Crank Keyed, New Stock Cam Keyed, Beehive Valve Springs & Some Pushrods, Wagler Pinned Oil Pump. Then a 10mm CP3, and a Danville 65mm Turbo if your really not going over 600.

    In need of new tires

    Just some random info from experience.. I really liked my old style cooper stt's before the pro version came out they were great all around, didn't like the looks of the stt pros so never tried them. My toyo MT's were also a great all around MT, but were completely bald in 25K miles due to my...

    Do I need a Fuel Sump?

    Thanks, I did some research and was seeing where people were saying over 600 you needed one. Didn't feel like I was having issues but wanted to make sure

    How's everyone doing with this virus crap?

    Kidturbo, you very neatly avoided my question on how long you think we should all wear masks... So if I did comply and wear one, how long will it take to accomplish whatever it is you want to see accomplished?

    How's everyone doing with this virus crap?

    Your "goal" is to make anyone that doesn't wear a mask feel dumb and un-educated, you need to wear your mask 24/7 if it makes you feel safe and no one will have a problem with it. Everyone else should make their own choice as well, personally I have not put a mask on yet one single time and...

    How's everyone doing with this virus crap?

    Let's all wear masks for the next year, so that all viruses will go away forever:rolleyes: Seriously the flu has been around for hundreds of years, I want someone to explain to me how masks are going to make Covid go away. It's absolutely a joke...

    How's everyone doing with this virus crap?

    I myself know of people that sent in blank cotton swabs for testing, one guy sent in 25 I believe it was. Every single one came back positive from that place, and he was not the only one that done that to see what would happen. So whatever the number of cases is I give them half at best and it's...

    How's everyone doing with this virus crap?

    COVID is just a different strand of the flu, if you have health problems you are obviously more susceptible since any virus needs a strong immune system to be conquered. So either clean your lifestyle up, build up your immune system and get healthy, or just be extra careful. COVID nor any...

    How much pulse to be around 650hp?

    What's your rail pressure holding in psi?

    How much pulse to be around 650hp?

    With stock injectors and a danville 3794 my lbz put down exactly 580 on a 2400us tune. Pistons lasted about 30,000 miles, If I remember correctly It's 2100 or 2200us with these new 45% Injectors and it makes between 650-700.

    S369/S488

    I don't have personal experience with the set-up your asking about but If I was going to be towing I would look at something that would spool better, 64-65 mm in the valley with a 483-485 should easily get you to 1,000 and tow a whole lot better than 369/488.
