    LLY: Best "Bang for the Buck" Brake Kit

    I only had the stock calipers and thought they did a decent job. I would start there. I'll check tomorrow, but I think I have a set of rear rotors still sitting around I could sell you. If I find them Ill PM you.

    LLY: Best "Bang for the Buck" Brake Kit

    The yellow's don't last too long, but they do stop good. I was getting 30-40k miles out of them. My orange ones lasted 60k miles and probably had 10-20k left. Both are front pad life.

    LLY: Best "Bang for the Buck" Brake Kit

    I have seen the power stop stuff crack at the drill holes. I don't really trust anything drilled all the way through. I have been running the EBC slotted and dimpled rotors with the orange and yellow pads. I prefer the yellows over the orange for brake fad, but both are good.

    LML Cracked Front Diff..Fixable?

    Seriously, damn oil! The people I got it from made me too angry with the shipping logistics. Ill use it to hold a door open before I try and send it back to them!

    Allison 5sp: Help !

    When it happened was it limited to 2k RPM's or was it stuck in 3rd? That will at least help figure out if it's a fuel limp vs trans limp.

    LML Cracked Front Diff..Fixable?

    Well, for all of you having a bad day, here is a little humor for you....:roflmao: So.. I was about as confident as possible the diff case was cracked. So I got a good deal on a new GM diff, half axles, basically just missing the solenoid. Between the time it was going to take to remove and...

    The S&B intake made a noticeable difference on my LML.

    Subwoofer Capacitor

    Had a similar issue on a trailer a while back. I had a 12v gel motorcycle battery sitting around and put it next to the amp, problem solved. A capacitor is for huge discharges and fast recharges, not for a sustained load.

    LML 13.2v Charging Too Low?

    I think at this point I'm just going to accept it as normal until I find something that clearly states otherwise. Even at 13.2 I can't get it to change no matter what accessories I turn on.

    LML 13.2v Charging Too Low?

    A good read for sure, but my truck doesn't follow that pattern too well. It doesn't change in tow/haul or when the head lights are one. Unfortunately I'm back to 13.4v today...not really sure what to do next, or if I should even be concerned. Maybe GM has decided to be more aggressive in...

    Anyone used these tow mirrors?

    Do these sit level on the older trucks or are they still at an angle? I remember having to clearance the cover and add washer to the next gen mirror on my LB7 when I removed the horrible power extendo mirros.

    LML 13.2v Charging Too Low?

    The MPG thing is why I asked. I was thinking this was a pre-programmed attribute to save fuel and meet the MPG standards. It seemed low, but not something I would put past GM. I pulled apart the passenger fuse block, cleaned the drivers fuse block feed terminal, and re-seated the whole drives...

    LML 13.2v Charging Too Low?

    The voltage measures the same at both batteries and on the alternator post. The strangest part of all this is that after resetting the system, it seems to function normally for a few drive cycles.

    LML 13.2v Charging Too Low?

    I have measured the voltage at the battery, OBDII port, and the cigarette lighter with a known good DMM.

    LML 13.2v Charging Too Low?

    Does anyone know what controls the charging voltage? The alternator seems to have the capacity to charge at a higher voltage, but is restricted for some reason.

    Heat wave

    Vegas is, and probably will be, the worst place for heat in the summer as far as I'm concerned. At least aside from the places people don't actually live. I used to travel to Vegas for work at least once a month and hated July and August. Nothing worse than a crap rental car with not tint.

    Genuine Tech 2 vs Chinese...

    I bought a fake one from alliexpress a few years back and it's been great. I haven't used it in it's fully capacity, but for the normal code reading, balance rates, and BCM/ECM control it's worked. I bought one with a candi module and have used it up to a 2011 and various GM vehicles. It did...
