    My latest Adventure, update 7/11/21

    Well the Saturn is looking great so far. Mixed driving highway, light city and country driving ( 80 ish on the highway, and she wasn't driving easy. I drove much easier the. Last 80 miles or so) and so far the average is 28-29. And it still isn't 100%. It has a little surge at idle, and can...

    Another reduced power thread 03 denali

    Thought I updated this one. I tossed on a TB after looking the wires over as they looked ok,. It was basically normal after the tb, the idle was high for a little bit but it learned after about a week and is all good now. Maybe a little touchier on initial throttle. But am down to just the O2...

    Advice on buying a used RV

    Another thought is you could keep the RV out west and just drive out and back then tow the trailer once there. Or drive if an RV. Some have found it cheaper to keep a small car or something at a second home, ( or somewhere that someone let's them keep it) and fly and drive your second car ...

    Advice on buying a used RV

    i had wanted to to a class c Mercedes/sprinter type chassis. as size would be manageable still and they seem to get about the same milage as a suburban anyway. reliability seems to be there with as many are delivery type, just not sure on price but i could be way off so ehh?? in my price...

    Ridiculous positive camber after lift spindles install

    By the looks of those arms I would say your in the realm of needing different arms or different spindles. But there is still not a pic that shows the camber.

    New to the group and looking for suggestions

    Singular, there is only one cam in these engines. Otherwise sounds like you have a decent idea of what direction you want to go with the rest of the truck.

    New to the group and looking for suggestions

    welcome from sw michigan, tuck is looking pretty good! as for adding power, there are a hand full of things you can do, depending on how much you want to spend and what your willing to sacrifice. a tune is probably high on the list of bang for buck. and there are little things that can add up...

    My latest Adventure, update 7/11/21

    yah part of it was that they bid contracts and was some local guys that got it and they are a small group. part of it is the county, another the township, then the dorks doing the work. in fairness they initially had some birds or bats or something they couldnt do work from xx date in...

    exhaust where to go

    it can be as simple as adding a bung post cats if your keeping them, if not then have them tuned out and be done.

    also got into the Saturn a bit to get the headlights better, and found some hidden suprises!!! not worried about it and will get it fixed well enough for what we want/need from it and it will still be a good cheap gas saver. look at all the overspray where it had obviously been...

    Torsion lowering issue

    i would get it on a level surface and worry more about making the truck sit even then making sure the bolts are even. i know mine are not, but it sits correct and rides drives good, so i dont worry about it.

    What is my towing capacity?

    I mean I have pulled close to the 8k mark several times with a couple different 1500's but definitely not something I recommend on the regular without a 2500. They all have 3.73 accept the 2500 it has 8.1 4.10 Sent from my moto g(6) using Tapatalk

    Tahoe weight reduction

    Well, that is a bit different. And sounds fun. On a side note I thought the Denali and Escalade used the same awd case. Sent from my moto g(6) using Tapatalk
