    AAM11.5 Yukon Helical LSD- 2016 LML

    I put a Nitro helical unit in my 16 along with 4.30 gears, the unit has AAM cast into the carrier. I built a 9.5” 14 bolt for my last truck and put the Detroit Trutrac in it with 4.56’s. The Trutrac was definitely more aggressive than the Nitro is, but the Nitro has worked well and I like it...

    truck towing pictures...

    That’s one nice thing about living in the desert, no rust. We had the frame sandblasted on the truck we are building, and just rattle canned it with Summit chassis paint and it looked brand new. Check out the date stamp.

    Went into Northern California and got my son a truck. Just something to drive around until we get one done that we are building for him.

    "OFFICIAL" What did you do to your D-Max today?

    Had to do my front brakes at 68k, they were starting to feel like an old car I had that would get the death wobbles. Went with AC Delco genuine pads and performance rotors. I recently started using the exhaust brake all the time thanks to a thread on here.

    January '23 Chat -- "New Year, New Gear!"

    Just head up the hill a little, we’ve been getting hammered in the Sierra’s. All that rain you’re getting is turning to snow at about 5000’.

    White/gray smoke when warm

    Not a great video but gives you the idea. And now that I watched it closer does the smoke look a little blue? Source: https://youtu.be/4-6nTIAr-KA

    I’m looking at diesel compression testers now, I have a gas one that only goes to 300#. I have a couple of videos of it, I’ll try and figure out how to post or link them.

    Yes it’s the LML, that injector is not part of the equation.

    White/gray smoke when warm

    Can anyone help me figure out what to do next to diagnose why my truck started blowing white smoke. I have only been able to get it to do it once the truck is up to temp and accelerating, it will start to smoke a little at idle and then leaves a pretty good cloud when I get going. Truck has...

    Nitro Worm Gear Differentials

    I put Nitro gears in the front, no posi. Both gear sets were easy to get a good pattern, and run pretty quiet.

    Nitro Worm Gear Differentials

    I installed the Nitro unit along with their 4.30 gears about 3 years ago. I haven’t had any issues and the gears are pretty quiet. The posi unit came in a Nitro box, but it had AAM cast into the body. I suspect it is the same unit that AAM puts in the Ram rear ends.
