    ABS issues

    So I've been fighting abs issues ever since I had a caliper blow a seal 6+ months ago. I installed the new brake caliper and bled them the old school way, without thinking about the ABS module. They bled just fine, but my ABS light has been on since then. Pulled the codes and I had a code...

    Built Trans on a budget

    I've been reading good things about the PPE stage V kit with the included triple disc converter, and it's quite a bit cheaper than a sun coast kit/converter. I know you guys swear by sun coast, but does anyone like Mike L that sees these transmissions daily, have any input on these kits? A few...

    Built Trans on a budget

    I posted this thread to get info on how to save money without cutting corners, and a few have pitched in with helpful info, but a lot have only given me the "just fork over the cash" lecture. I fully understand I'll need to spend quite a bit of money, but even if I can save just a few hundred...

    Built Trans on a budget

    He's in Van, TX right? That's within an hour of me. That's great because I didn't know of anyone within 6 hours of me who was know to be good with these Allisons. I'll give him a call. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Built Trans on a budget

    Couple hours east of Dallas, TX. This is good info, and I know I'm going to have to fork over the cash for parts, as I don't want to cut any corners, but I'm mostly looking to save money on labor. I know i don't trust myself inside the Trans, but other than that what else can I do to save...

    Built Trans on a budget

    Ok so I know I'm going to have to fork over some cash for this one irregardless, but I don't want to spend money I didn't have to. I want a good solid Trans I won't have to worry about for a good long while. The most power the truck will ever probably push is possible 600hp. As of now on bone...

    Things to do while the bed is off?

    Nah I'll leave it, I throw my spare under there when I go on long distance trips just in case. Better than having it in the bed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Things to do while the bed is off?

    The frames already been painted, but I'm sure there are spots that I missed or need recoating, so I'll take care if that. Someone mentioned a brake line? Which one is known to need replacing? I planned on a lift pump anyway, so I guess I should do that while the beds off. Going to run...

    Things to do while the bed is off?

    I'll have the bed off of the truck in a few weeks to repair some body damage, and I'm wondering what all I should do that's fairly cheap while it's off. I've honestly thought about taking the tank out and cleaning it, as my fuel filter is absolutely filthy every time I change it every 5k...

    Impact sensor help!

    Mods please move if I'm in the wrong place. Ok so I'm having some issues with my service airbag light. It's been on since I bought the truck over a year ago, and just recently I've decided to try and fix it. I had the codes pulled and it said it was a front impact sensor, but I can't remember...

    General longevity? 263k miles and climbing

    Ok truck keeps throwing p0087 only after idling for more than 20 or 30 min. Any ideas? doesn't throw the code any other time though. Not even under full throttle. Only other time it's thrown p0087 was with a trashed fuel filter. Edit: also when it does this, the truck won't go past like 1100...

    General longevity? 263k miles and climbing

    I guess it's just hard hearing it for me. I guess my dilemma is that if I have to baby the truck and never have fun with it, then I'm better off selling it and buying a lower miles gasser. This was my original plan and I convinced myself to keep the truck and fix all the issues. So how does...

    General longevity? 263k miles and climbing

    When we purchased the truck more than a year ago, previous owner said he NEVER had a programmer on it, and the truck was bone stock. Not a bolt turned on it. Now, whether or not that's the 100% truth I'll never know. And I know turning the tune up is begging for it to go south, and that's why...

    General longevity? 263k miles and climbing

    I can't believe I left out that I run a superchips flashpaq that I got for free. So it is tuned. I've already ordered the tuning, and do plan on running it, mostly on the economy setting to save me a little cash at the pump, but every once in a while on the 70 horse or 90 horse tune. I'm...

    General longevity? 263k miles and climbing

    Ok so I am more than worried about the longevity of the hard parts on my LBZ. Some background on the truck: It has 263k miles and is my daily driver. It rarely tows, but when it does it's no more than 8k lbs. I do like having fun in it, and hit the drag strip ever once in a while. It live in...

    Cheapest place to get Rancho shocks?

    After reading that post I'm really second guessing the 9000s in the front, and wanting to do double adjustables. I can't find any prices for the Viking shocks, anyone know what they'd run? Trying to figure out whether it'd be worth it to do the double adjustables now. Sent from my iPhone...
