If someone can bring a vehicle to fiberwerx, they can make them.
Fronts are already available. It’s the rears. I’d like someone to make some metal flares since the rears get banged up.
So far I’ve been happy with the mishimoto. We had two heat waves since the install and the ecu has had no problem keeping the ect in the targets
I was worried with how much thicker the core was that the truck would have a hard time staying in the target temps.
The only fitment issue I had was...
Nice. Well 3.0 fronts are a go and easy enough.
I need to lift my suburban and get my 2.5’s off and slide this extended top cap on.
It’s a modified one that is used on raptors.
Anyone in East Bay Area want to give my lazy old fat arse a hand lllz
I love that these guys make everything in house. I ask, he machines… and in a few days I’ll have it. Shipped from Oklahoma to me in NorCal.
Carbon shock technologies in Oklahoma… gotta love it.
So there is a company out there making 3.0 coilovers for the front of the Gm 1500 platform which our vehicles are part of.
But they don’t make anything for the back. You need to modify a truck 1500 rear 2.5 piggyback shocks to make it fit.
I asked the owner of Carbon to make me a 3.0 top cap...
I chased looking for a decent shock. Arnotts sagged and the ride was eh.
I wouldn’t waste the money on the fox 2.0
If you are going that route do the mag ride foolers and get a proper shock like a carbon shock or king.
Carbon will tune the shock for you and are more affordable.
If you get...
So far so good. It does stay a lot cooler than the oem cooler. I’m afraid that it might trip a code.
Where before it would be in the 210 range it’s in the 200 range, and when it would be in the 190-193 range it’s in the 170.
I only know these numbers as I converted my colorado to a new...
Mishimoto went in today.
Fitment was ok. The lower fan mounts were off and I had to trim the fan shroud.
The mount for the ac lines on the passenger side was too far off and I had to zip tie the bracket instead of bolt it.
A lot thicker than stock, so that is good. Hopefully it lasts a good...
Dang. I have a buddy with an excursion and his is going on 4 years.
Well… I can tig aluminum… if it does leak and it’s somewhere I can fix it.. there is that.
I just pulled the Amazon trigger on it.
It looks like there are two ports on each side, so an internal engine oil cooler and internal transmission fluid cooler.
Someone recommended the mishimoto radiator. Pricey… $200 more than I can get an oem one for (shipping adds a lot to the oem one)
Seriously debating that…
IM finding that I need to see if I have "NHT" in the build sheet or not. There are two different radiators for my year yukon.
I really wish I could find a well built non crimped radiator. But it looks like that wont be the case.
I should probably get new radiator hoses since im in there. I have...
The radiator on my 2015i 6.2l 4wd 8 speed yukon XL Denali decided to start leaking on the drivers side.
Trying to determine which is the best option to put in and if there are any features I need to be aware of since I think the yukon xl denalis all have the max tow options.
I do offroad this...
Its the sway bar bushings. Im having the same problem. I replaced the links and that helped a bit. I have ac delco gold/racing sway bar bushings in the box that I have yet to install. But I can see the busings on the frame are just getting thrashed.
Came across these for another build I’m doing.
But a 10 day eta on them. Dual speed compression adjuster which is awesome.
Tuned for your use (try getting that from king or fox. Those you’d have to go through a master dealer and pay $100 per shock).
King race series and fox factory series...

Are there any other 8l90 rebuilt transmissions and converters that are recommended for “off-roading”? Over landing really.
My prerunner has an 8l45 so that will event need something done to it as well. That trans was...
Yea. Sadly no one wants to deal with the serial numbers of the parts (I’m super tired, I can’t remember the parts name) that has to be updated in the tcm or what ever it is with the trans swap.
I’ve even contacted some of the rebuilt trans companies that do up rated transmissions, asking them...
@NickTransmissions
I’ve been trying to find a trans shop that is familiar with the 8l90 for about 2 years.
I’m in the east bay area of California
No one.
SoCal yes, but that’s a 14 hour drive each way.
Can anyone recommend a shop in the Bay Area? My 2015i has a 2nd gear flare when it’s...
