    Would you rather

    I always prefer to build it myself. Even if it takes longer or ends up costing more. Unless I know the owner of a built truck, I don't want anything to do with it.

    Best Tow Story Yet

    Not sure how many, if any, of you have seen this, but....I couldn't leave this alone. I've most definitely seen a fair share of idiots, and even done a few dumb things while towing, but this just might be taking it to a new galaxy. It's a uhaul truck towing a trailblazer which is towing...

    tcm tune

    I had mine tuned, but after Mike did the trans so it didn't get line pressure changes. It's nice for a more aggressive downshift schedule at cruising speeds, but that's about it.

    Banks Diff Cover Video

    Couldn't be said any better. I'm just too intrigued.

    Banks Diff Cover Video

    Yea, there was a new one a few days ago, and a new one today. He still hasn't finished the series though.

    Banks Diff Cover Video

    Have any of you guys watched the videos Banks is doing on aftermarket differential covers? I've never been a fan of them, just like deep trans pans, but for a few different reasons. It seems pretty interesting especially since he seems to be trying to prove the stock one is the best...

    Georend vs suncoast

    Are you just saying it's "Hard to explain" why the solid transmission you were able to build with all your mechanical skill doesn't always lockup under load?

    Floorboard, accelerator and brake pedal vibration

    I had a similar issue come up and it ended up being the exhaust on the torsion cross member had started to rub. It happened years after the install and I believe was just a fatigued hanger/s.

    FTE resonator 4" exhaust

    I ran a 4" with the 30" FTE and muffler. It's not much louder than stock (The whole point) and has zero drone. If you want some exhaust note, get the 17".

    Lb7 quick start?

    My LB7 was a slow cranker until the starter finally died. I also just thought it was an LB7 thing. With a new starter it turned over faster than my current LML.

    LB7: Weird electrical issue

    I would be leaning towards a missing or bad door chime module. Put the factory radio back in and see if the issues come up. The radio itself shouldn't be able to cause the issues described. I've seen missing or failed modules make these trucks do strange things.

    LML Front Diff Mount Bolts

    Do either one of you know the pitch? I need to pull the diff spacers out of mine to install the DHD brace. I was just going to pull them and figure it out, but then this popped up today..

    No forward gears and D is flashing

    Who built the trans? What codes did it have? P0700 is a generic code, so if that's all it has you need a better scanner.

    Hazing @ idle with 30% over injectors

    I've seen a few LBZ's with your 30 and 60 overs and they never seemed to haze. Deleted trucks definitely have a diesel odor, but that's all I've noticed on the smaller injectors. Maybe I just have a jaded definition of "hazing" after putting a few hundred thousand miles on an LB7.

    Hazing @ idle with 30% over injectors

    How many miles do you have on them? 30's shouldn't be hazing at all. At least in my experience.

    Allison 5sp: Help !

    I won't pay my truck off a day early. The low interest rates make it cheap money. The same money invested over the duration of the loan will make way more money over time. The same applies to most mortgages... Boy has this thread derailed....:roflmao:

    Flo Pro vs. MBRP

    Strange. I wasn't too impressed with the Flo~Pro kit on my LML. It didn't fit well and had clearance issues on the torsion cross member.

    Allison 5sp: Help !

    When my LB7 started to show some signs of wear, I thought about an LBZ, until I drove an L5P. It's an awesome truck stock, but just not enough for me long term. Ultimately I found a 15.5' and couldn't be happier. If you want to build a race truck, LBZ all the way. If you want to keep a stock...

    This is what I did and I don't think I'll ever sell it!
