    External Transmission Filter

    Sorry if I missed it, but how do you tap into the transmission lines? Looks to me like you cut that hard line and use some kind of crimp on fitting to connect the rubber hose???

    I'm about to do this as well, been reading up on some different stuff. Alot of good reviews on the cheap eBay units... looking at one of the wireless jobs to hopefully avoid running another cable front to back, anyone have experience with those things?

    Torsion bar and upper control arm questions

    One other thing I've noticed is that jacking it up helps it settle right away when you jack it down I didnt think those bolts were under enough stress to snap them, but either way, I'll be jacking mine up from here on out... I like all my digits to remain in one piece

    Torsion bar and upper control arm questions

    Some people like to take the weight off the springs while adjusting, but you dont HAVE to... as long as you have enough ass to turn the bolt, its gonna raise/lower the truck. I intentionally set mine high when I reinstalled the bars the right way, and im backing them off a little each day (not...

    Torsion bar and upper control arm questions

    If you're just adjusting the bolt you dont really need to jack it up... if you're removing a key you should jack it up to get the tire off the ground, and use a jackstand bc if the jack gives out, there is no spring to catch the weight

    Torsion bar and upper control arm questions

    Update to the OP: I swapped bars last night from driver's to passenger side and was able to adjust the bolt to get the arms off the down stops. I feel a little dumb now but hey, live and learn right?

    Torsion bar and upper control arm questions

    Are they different? I took mine out and tossed them in the corner of the garage for about a year while I ran coilovers... didnt mark them to distunguish and honestly I just thought they were identical so it didnt matter... so yes its very possible Edit: just did some research and same part #...

    Torsion bar and upper control arm questions

    I just installed my keys and spacers, and my front looks exactly like yours with the upper arm laying on the down travel stops. Truck looks really tall and I am wondering if I indexed the keys one notch too far? I, too, had my bars out (for my coilover swap) and have no idea which bar was in...

    torsion bar re-install

    I've been lowered on a custom coil over setup for awhile now, and im just tired of the lowered ride so I gathered up all the parts to go up to a key/spacer stance on 285/70/17 tires Question is, when I go to re-install the torsion bars, is it possible to do without dropping the arms off the...

    coil over conversion installed

    ATM, cost... trying to keep it as cheap as possible for now, leaving the option to return to coil overs in the future still trying to sell a house, so with 2 mortgage payments, every little bit counts

    coil over conversion installed

    You may not think it's as bad as I do, but I've never had a lowered truck before so it's a whole new experience for me. I gave it a solid 2yrs but I just can't do it anymore. Its a combination of the whole package, bad ride, bottoms out all the time, tires get into the fenders like every day...

    coil over conversion installed

    I hate it. Ordered up everything I need to go back up and it all should be in by monday... gonna be sitting on keys and spacers, bilstein 5100's, and 285/70/17 mud claws wrapped around 17x9 v-tec raptor wheels It sucks bc I absolutely LOVE the look, but the ride is just plain horrible on...

    Tahoe and suburban rear suspension similarities

    Yes they are the same. Some differences between suspension packages, but springs and shocks will fit both across the board

    coil over conversion installed

    Got a whole slew of life updates, but the truck is really on the back burner right now... good news is that the bushing and stud top seem to be holding up just fine. Also pretty much decided to stay low and go with tony's 6" rear springs and lower the front to match, on a smaller diameter...

    It makes the shock extended too much. Its not at its max, but its almost 10.5" and max extended is 11.125 After seeing that I cranked it down a bit until I can swap it back to pro comp. I tried to swap em out the other day after work and I couldnt get the pro comp mount I there without...
