Wow! you guys have tried everything. Thanks for the info. Yeah, i was wondering if it was going to require a hack into to push button indicator.....but hey, if that's what it takes. Maybe one of you can do a how-to on that?? Thanks again Smitty

Yeah, when I had my cluster out chasing the check engine light problem I was having, I saw the nice looking (green) icon of the drivetrain with the front wheels turned slightly. It's to the right of the glow plug indicator on my 07. Glad to see I'm not the only one that thinks the stupid setup...

this question is for the 07 classic silverado but may apply to other year models. I would like for the "4x4" light in the cluster to come on when I'm in 4 wheel drive - not the stupid yellow indicator that stays on all the time and moves down 1 inch next to the 4x4 button when in 4 wheel...

You probably need to pull the interior door skin and lube the moving parts for the window. The factory grease is probably as hard as wax. Make sure you lube the cable pulleys also.

Not that it matters but what size is that trailer? My 7x20 dovetail equipment trailer (bumper pull) weighs just a tad under 2k. I'm just getting this humorous picture in my mind of your dad hauling a 19" cut Murray push mower on a 7x30 gooseneck......being pulled by a HD Dmax. lol :) I...

Geez Ed, that is a fairly quick 6.5 you got there. At first I thought HOLY CRAP! he hit 120 quick.....then I realized that is kilometers per hour.....what is that around 70? Still friggin impressive!

I agree, except none of the above can tell you why traffic is at a standstill 10 miles up the road. But, I only turn mine on when I need that sort of info.

I'm running a Ranger ss3700 sideband and a Cobra 29LTD classic both have 40 up 40 down channel kits. The cobra dead keys about 1 watt and swings 18!! Drives the crap outta my little Pride 100 amplifier....oh wait, that wouldn't be legal, my Pride 100 foot heater, yeah that's it! I had stopped...

Does that trailer weigh 3k #'s or is it rated for 3k? Either way, I think that's a pretty good drop in mileage and is not normal....well, it could be, depending on driving style. I towed a dual tandem, 16k pound 5th wheel travel trailer from Texas to Florida with a 07 3500 LBZ dually and got...

Well, dip me in axle grease and call me slick! I decided to put the clamp around it anyway last night. Drove down my long driveway this morning, had the window down checking out the cows and in the back of my mind I kept thinking "something sounds different in my truck". I closed the windows...

Hmm, the plastic part on mine looks slightly different and it's green. And it appears to be seated all the way in the metal tubing. I was looking at it with a light and mirror.....just put on some old work jeans and I'm going back out there and attempt to get my old rear end turned around...

Good call Jifaire, my eyes must have glazed over while reading all the specs. I just saw 2.5 crossover and assumed there was 3-4" exhaust after that. So, x2 on what he said - big bore exhaust and turbo master is a must. That brake controller is on the bottom end of the Tekonsha line of brake...

That trailer weighs less than 6k dry - so I don't think you bit off too much. Your rig looks like it has all the goodies to make a 6.5 haul the mail (or a travel trailer). I tow 6-7k regularly(equipment trailer w/ equipment) with my old 6.5. It pulls it ok, although my old girl is running on...

Thanks Nick - that's the info I was looking for. I noticed on the carfax report before I purchased the truck, one of the three visits to the dealer was "steering shaft, lubrication". Over the years I've come to the realization that when a dealer mentions "lubrication" in a repair, that...

Yeah, I have that clunk on my 01 z71. This is different. The rhythm of the clunk is about like hitting a drumstick (one time) on a drum - more like a vibration but with the deep thumping sound. I hope I'm describing this right. On my 01 it's an occasional thump/clunk - when it does it, it's...

Disclaimer for the moderators; I apologize if this is not in the correct area of the forums. I spent ten minutes trying to decide where is should go without getting my hand slapped :hihi: I think this problem is something in the interior (but I could be wrong) - might be suspension - so...

In my 07 LBZ, I noticed this morning (it was cold here - 83 degrees! lol and very overcast) so I turned off the A/C and about ten minutes later I could have cut diamonds with my nipples! Digital temp probe in the duct was still hovering around 40-42 degrees - the A/C button was off and the...

Yeah, I was just being funny, but I swear it's like a mod is watching for me to post something so they can move it.....and then chastise me publicly and privately in a PM. - .....still being funny. You know, sometimes your question could be posted in several places and it's hard to decide "well...

thanks for the replies - all good info. Yeah, I buy my fuel at Super-Duper Wally World 7 miles from my house. The they go through a ton of diesel fuel...so, as least I know it's always fresh. The article I was reading was specifically talking about the lack of lubrication that ULSD...
