Which Bilstein Shock for 4" Lift
Do you know what be5-b514-ho translates to with the new part numbers? And if it makes any difference I'll be running Mini Deavers (about a 1 3/4" lift) and airlift 5000 bags in the rear, so less lift than most people running a 4"- 2007LBZ

Which Bilstein Shock for 4" Lift
I am piecing together a lift for my truck and hit a small roadblock when looking for Bilstein 5100 part numbers. Bilstein's application guide recommends one shock for 0-2.5" of front lift, and another for 4-6" of front lift. I plan to do a 4" lift with the torsion key bolts removed, so the lift...- 2007LBZ

Got the headlight / marker light housings installed, they are OEM style minus the orange reflector - they look nice and clean. The bow tie looks a lot better as well since the old one was falling apart. CTS2 + backup camera are installed, next week I have a few days off and I'm going to try and...- 2007LBZ

Stripped Oil Drain Plug Head
The bolt extractor socket got it out just fine. There was no rubber / crush washer on the bolt or anything like that, it was just torqued up into the pan as far as possible. The threads on the tip of the bolt were stripped but the rest of them didn't appear to be damaged. The guy who changed... -
Broke up pipe bolts
I bought some ARP chromoly bolts for my up pipes. Instead of buying from a Duramax specific vendor and paying $15-20 for 3 bolts, you can use part # 672-1003 and get 5 bolts cheaper.- 2007LBZ

Stripped Oil Drain Plug Head
I've got a fumoto valve waiting to go in, I'm hoping the threads aren't FUBAR so I can actually use it. -

That explains part of it then, it was replaced with a 13mm and impacted -
Stripped Oil Drain Plug Head
Hammer and punch / chisel or the air chisel will be what I try next. I've removed bolts with stripped heads plenty of times but this one just won't let loose. Usually the pipe wrench does the trick no problem. If I had to guess I'd say this one got cross threaded and had the shit torqued out of... -
Stripped Oil Drain Plug Head
Well, I went to change the oil for the first time since I purchased my LBZ, lo and behold the last idiot to change the oil apparently used an impact to put the plug back in. I've tried a few things to get the plug off with no luck so far. When I tried using an impact to get it off, it just... -

LBZ: Fuel Gauge Inaccurate
I also noticed that with the key on, without the truck started, the fuel range (miles until empty) climbs slowly while the AirDog is running. I'm not sure if this is normal or not either. -
LBZ: Fuel Gauge Inaccurate
I just purchased an LBZ yesterday - it went from full to nearly empty pretty quickly. I filled up with 70 miles left until empty (according to the cluster) but it only held 13 gallons. The only fuel related mod is an AirDog, no tunes yet. Is this normal for a stock truck and something that EFI... -

I like the idea of the EGT port already being there on the BD. Are there any other easy options for mounting a probe?- 2007LBZ

I plan on going with the HSP 2 piece Y bridge for the EGR delete and EFI/CTS2 bundle from IdahoRob. While I'm doing the LB7 up pipe I plan to put on the BD driver side manifold and EGT probe to the CTS2- 2007LBZ

New (to me) LBZ Owner
Hey guys, I'm new here but I've been lurking the site for a few months during my search for a truck. I've finally pulled the trigger on one and I'm going to finalize everything on Wednesday. The truck is a 07 classic with 112k miles, ECSB in Silver Birch Metallic with a gray interior. It's an LS...- 2007LBZ
