    Cab Isolators

    Update. I have the shackles but haven’t installed them yet. I also found a pair of springs off a low miles truck for $50. Guy took them off to run the 4” lift springs instead of lifter blocks. These look pretty good, at least better than mine haha and the overload spring gap measures 3” (...

    Trans Service Advice

    I’m getting ready to change the fluid in my LLY trans. I don’t know if/when it’s been done so I’d rather just know it’s been changed and good to go. I have 3 gallons of Transynd fluid, the internal filter, pan gasket and external filter with new magnet. Anything else I should need or check...

    Cab Isolators

    Well I ordered the sulastic shackles and set up an appointment to bring my springs in to have them rebuilt. Then shit happens like it tends to do haha so shelling out $800+ for the two would hurt more than its worth right now. But it was too later to cancel the shackles order but I could return...

    Cab Isolators

    Looks like a local shop could re arch the springs for $350, with new bushings and paint but a 3 day turnaround so the truck would be on stands awhile. That’s about the same price as two new ones minus the shipping which is averaging another $150. If it’s the same either way I think I might...

    Cab Isolators

    Ok thanks. Don’t know much about this air bag add ons. Looking to see if there is anyone around that does the re arching and what that would cost vs new springs. Springs themselves aren’t too bad but shipping almost doubles the price.

    Cab Isolators

    I’m not sure what pressure I’m at I’ll have to go out and look. Here’s a dumb question I thought about last night. Truck came with helper air bags but not onboard compressor so I have to fill them with valves in each rear wheel well. I’m positive they are empty now and remember the guy...

    Cab Isolators

    Would I replace the whole pack or does the add a spring kits do the same thing ?

    Cab Isolators

    That’s what I was thinking too. I’ll look into new springs and see what they will run first.

    Cab Isolators

    Ok. I def think the majority of the harsh ness comes from the rear. It’s rigid and almost like a skip where you feel the one bump three or so times after. Hard to explain Now I’m wondering what order I should do these as I can’t afford to do them all at once. What’s the biggest bang for the buck...

    Cab Isolators

    Thanks. I had never heard of them before yesterday but they seem like a good idea. Did you have to unbolt and lift your bed when you put them in?

    Cab Isolators

    is the measurement supposed to be with the truck in the air or sitting on the ground? I would think it would compress and loose some of that gap on the ground right?

    Cab Isolators

    Ok that’s good to know. Not as expensive as I thought then to change all the mounts then. Ok I measured right then. It’s about 3/4 to 7/8” gap

    Cab Isolators

    Went out and looked at it. I think I measured the right part. Seemed to make sense haha

    Cab Isolators

    Do those hydraulics only go in the rear or is it just cost savings only putting them in the back two mounts? I’m not knowing the difference in the lead spring pieces. Where am I looking above the axle or on the end?

    Cab Isolators

    Do you think the vibrations are from the hydraulic or the OEM style ones you replaced?

    Cab Isolators

    You did new isolators or the shackles?

    Cab Isolators

    I have an 05 crew cab and saw a couple videos of people changing out the cab mounts to hydraulic type isolators, some just did the back two mounts and the OEM style for the other four. I did notice my body lines don’t line up with the bed anymore like most of the videos but more of I’m trying to...
