500,000????? I have 60k! 6-0 and probably 60 problems in the last 2 years. I cant wait until this is where it should be.

I really appreciate your responses and feedback Will. I'll let you know.

yes I do have mercury balancing with CTIS. Not good? I'll get my son to drive it and I'll watch from behind. I checked the wheels and none are loose. The front end gives a bit left to right but i suspect that would be front steering linkage play. I like your tire option. I think ill do...

Superswamper IROK 39.5". No runflat. Use CTIS. WHat do you think?

Good idea. I'll try that this morning.

Oh it's happened! I lost the front left tire while driving. When I bought the vehicle I drove it for a month and the wheel come. Not fun. I'll jack the vehicle and check each of the wheels. I am uses Cepek 16.5 rims. Half shafts haven't been replaced since a I bought the vehicle. I bought a...

None in the steering wheel. The passenger front and back seats shake. Okay... so based on none in steering wheel that would eliminate steering (pitman and idler then)? So I am down to tires and drive shafts/half shafts?

Latest test results: 1. I drove it at 40 MPH with brakes applied: Still vibration. 2. I drove the vehicle up to 60 MPH then put in neutral. Vibration still at 40 MPH 3. I drove the vehicle to 60 MPH, put in neutral and shut engine off. Vibration still occurs at 40 MPH. Is a CV joint...

Hello All, I have a 1999 Hummer H1. Over the last couple of days I've noticed an ever increasing vibration that occurs at 40MPH and disappears around 50 MPH. I've had the vehicle 2 years and replaced the ball joints, idler, pitman, and shocks when I got the truck. This vibration has...

Wow WarWagon you nailed it. Never even thought it could go in another way. AThis is where experience pays off and all theyoutube videos in the world can't cover everything. I'll let you know how it goes. I had my son open the hood at home and sure enough it is backwards.

Thanks Ak. I'll do a compression test tomorrow and see how it looks. I does not look good as I tried to decrease the boost but it still lifts the dipstick and spits oil when RPMS are high with some load. I have not changed the Turbo yet so it is the original 6.5 unit.

No blue smoke when running. Engine runs fantastic other than covering me with oil. Blow by only on dipstick. Upper radiator hose pressurized? How should I check that and when? (at idle?)

I'm having a hell of a time. Have you ever experienced blow-by? I'm now having to learn a whole new problem (hopefully not serious).

Thank you I will try that and let you know.

Hello All, A few days ago I replaced the IP, harmonic balancer and CDR. I left the dog house off the vehicle so I could see if there were anymore problems. This morning oil started blowing out the oil fill dip stick at high RPM and boost while accelerating. It was black oil only.. no...
