    How about winches?

    I had the pleasure of digging a rut up at the lake last holiday weekend with my truck and rv in tow. It had rained all night and the ground was greasy...and uphill doesn't work real well. I ended up with Good Sam Emergency Road Service sending a tow with a winch out and he drug the whole works...

    2007 Classic Silverado wheel questions...

    My truck now has 43k on it...since 10k it got new tires, the 285 Silent Armors in my sig (stock rims). So far I've gotten 30k out of these, and that's been towing almost all the time. It's been a good ride...love the tires...BUT... The inside of the fronts have been rubbing...raised white...

    1/8 stereo plug for Silverado?

    Is there some kind of harness or something that can add a 1/8 plug to play devices over the stereo? If my truck has one, dammed if I can find it...then I wouldn't have to use an FM transmitter.

    AC sometimes doesn't turn off?

    I wasn't sure i this was the right forum for AC, so I figured I'd go by my truck model. I've noticed sometimes when I turn the AC off, it still seems to be running and I'm not sure if it actually does turn off. Even after shutting the engine off for a few minutes, I get in and have just the fan...

    Using AC - dripping inside

    It's warm here now...started using the air. The air works great - frostbite will ensue if left on high... But...a long ride home from last weekend left my flooring wet right under the ductwork by the tranny hump. I've been watching it trying to figure it out. Please don't tell me it's some...

    Have a great Memorial Day guys!

    We're off to the lake...way up in northern Mn lake country where the mosquitoes have landing lights...:eek: It's been in our family for 5 generations...very rustic. Used to be a hunting shack way back, now a near bare lot. A fire pit, electricity, and an outhouse on a small fishing lake, miles...

    Firefox forum friendly fix?

    Is it just me, or does Firefox bog down on the forums (other forums too)? Would there be some settings to improve performance? EDIT: See post below...I may have found some help.

    Help - door lock quit

    I have the 4 door...and my left rear door lock stopped actuating. The rest are unchanged. The door has power to it for the window still. Maybe a wire came off?

    Block Flash popups in Firefox?

    This is an old tip, but I have been having flash pop ups with Firefox so I started looking around and found this: "Here's a great tip from Pete Bevin (via Dvorak) if, like me, you've been seeing a rash of popup windows in Firefox recently. It turns out these are being generated via Flash...

    MBRP Duramax Turbo Outlet?

    Somebody around here got me reading up on downpipes again...and I read that Extreme Diesel has an exclusive on this product for a short time (which may be up soon?). http://www.xtremediesel.com/mbrpturbooutletduramaxdownpipekit.aspx#reviews This sounds like a spring project for me...Kyle...

    Fog lamp bulbs

    My amber bulbs I bought last year are taking a dump...time for replacements. 9005's and 9006's will fit, I can find yellow, but I am curious how this is viewed... The low beam bulbs have the cap on the tip - to reflect back into the housing? The high beam bulbs don't and are free to scatter...

    Uh oh...got a red drip

    When my truck is cold, I have developed a drip just behind my radiator. It goes away when it warms up. I pulled the plastic cover off underneath and I have a wet tranny line. I was hoping there was a fitting I could tighten, but no joy... Of course it's part of a longer line than doesn't look...

    Looking for a tailgate mat or material...

    I climb into the back of my truck because I have a topper, and the protector I have has ridges on it that hurt my knees. I'm looking for something with a little cush...a rubber pad? Some kind of backed carpet that can handle weather? I have no troubles cutting, mounting...whatever. Just looking...

    Can I make my 2500 a 3500?

    I'm curious... An RV forum I frequent has ongoing discussions about the carrying capacity of the 2500 vs. 3500 models. The weights are quite different yet the only hardware differences seem to be in the springs. This has been a hotly contested topic that draws fire from the 'weight police' as...

    Poor man's rear crew speaks install

    I'll let the pictures do the talking. It's in and still needs some tuning. This is where I play for a while with insulation, baffles, etc,...whatever to make them push. So far they sound better along with the rear door speaks. Instead of the backs being the fillers, the fronts are now the...

    Rear speaker install, crew cab

    What kind of sick joke is this? I do the front speakers...pretty straight forward, sound really a bunch better. Can't wait to do the back and square that away...so I take off the back door panels thinking this would be a piece of cake...and what??? The speaks are mounted on some kind of...

    Oil for S&B filter?

    It's about that time...gotta clean it out and re-oil. What is the best oil for these? I've read about some oils throwing codes and want to make sure to get the right product.

    Yay! First trip out this year

    The stars aligned just right and we snuck out in the RV early this year. Yeah, still below freezing at night, but if you know how to handle it it isn't bad at all. The heaters are on, the water is running, and we're in a 5 star park with Internet for 13 bucks a night. I've done the...

    New scareware sends you to fake Download.com

    I read this over at Download.com and wanted to pass it along to you folks: Last week, BleepingComputer.com reported on how to remove a new variant of an old scareware. This new nasty, known most commonly as Antivirus2010 or Anti-Virus-1, points you to spoofed versions of Download.com, ZDNet...
