    Found another style of GM towing mirrors.....

    They are not markers only turn. The set I got was indexed wrong and the mirrors locked in place too far out. They are just as crooked as the rest. Mine shook so bad they were useless even after trying weather stripping on the edges, then the motor could not adjust them. I sent them back, they...

    Tow mirrors

    I have had zero luck with the aftermarket mirrors. The first set I got the passenger side would sit too far back and would shake like crazy. The next set I tried from an aftermarket shop was so bad I thought the glass was going to fall out and they wouldn't stay set. I sent those back and tried...

    22+mpg

    Re calibrated with the EVO and verified by gps. Even my buddy commented on how fast the needle moves, well both actually! It is still better than what I had before. My lifted 1500 was regeared and still only managed 11 mpg. I just wasn't expecting a 5-6 mpg drop but I was doing 80+. I need to...

    Poll 10/26/09 Would you loan your truck out?

    I had the idea for this poll after this situation came up: My buddy is a die hard Ford man. He has a 2000 7.3 CC 4wd F250 and his wife has a 01 7.3 2wd Excursion. His wife is better at picking trucks than he is. I warned him there were nicer 7.3's for the same money and that truck was gonna...

    22+mpg

    Update. Drove to Atlanta and back, cruise set on 80, evo set on hot 1, hand calculated 15.33, 15.62, 15.22 mpg. I wasn't expecting such a drastic change but oh well, it looks good:D.

    Its a sure sign of fall, Winterizing the camper

    I figured I would get this after I read what I posted:D This is the best time for us to camp also. Nov. through March. The cooler temps keep the skeeters down (they have been unreal lately, even at home and the town gets sprayed twice a week. When the sun gets to the tree line, you better be...

    Boost gauge working?

    You should see 4-5 while you were driving, from what I can make out, it is only showing 1.

    Gasser MPG's?

    My 01 5.3 ec sb 4x4 got around 18 on the hwy. I added a 6" suspension lift, 3" body lift, Chrome wheels with 37" BFG mud tires, 4.56 gears, efi tuned and ended up getting 11 mpg on a good day with the wind blowing just right. Average daily commute was 9:eek:. Traded it on the Dmax.:D Couldn't be...

    4 wheel drive clunk

    You would be exposing the bearings to dirt and debris. A broken MM usually makes noise when you press and release the go pedal as the engine twist and resettles. It would do it in 2wd also. Check the bearings for slack also when you jack up the wheels off the ground. Have you tried to get...

    4 wheel drive clunk

    The only way it would rattle is if the bearings are completely out of the carrier which would mean that the cv is destroyed internally. They usually come apart at that point though. Jack it up and turn the wheel and see if you hear anything loose in the cv housing. The two I have changed before...

    Poll Idea's

    Would you loan your truck to your best friend? Only if it were life and death just to haul/travel local whatever they needed it for not in a million years

    4 wheel drive clunk

    I am assuming this noise is only in 4wd no matter the terrain? If you really want to test your cv joints put it in 4wd on concrete or asphalt and turn the wheel hard left or/and to the right while driving slowly like trying to park . They make loud "clicking" "popping" noises when worn. Very...

    This past summer I got 22.3 on a trip to Houston, all interstate, cruise on 73, taking off like I was in my kia and not passing anyone. Edge evo set on hot 1. Hardest drive I ever made):h. Just wanted to see what it would do. I just put a 6" lift and 35's. I am scared to check it now:eek:. I...
