This looks like a lot of work to me. Get a bunch of used 55 gallon drums and fill them with water. The extra weight will make the rig ride like it is on a cloud. Bonus is this will cost far less than replacement suspenion parts and is also a LOT easier to install :D

Soo... You're trying to tell me that I cannot do the penny challenge in a new house? Well that's just shocking!

Only thing missing is the fart spray dispenser for tailgaters. :)

I let morons ride my tail all they want. A big-ole stainless steel bumper will do a lot more to the other vehicle than what the other vehicle will do to it. The current daily driver has a manual transmission mated to a hefty diesel, so it can dump speed rather fast without touching the brakes...

Welcome to TTS! Good information! Question: what is the question? From the details, it looks like one goal is to install 4WD but the oil filter is in the way. In OE form, the GMT400's oil filter was probably an afterthought as there is *extremely* little room for removing it due to the front...

Welcome to TTS! Definitely do *not* need a dually for 7,500 pounds. Some current production SUV's can handle that weight and remain stable. Only advantage a dually gets is reducing the need for 4WD as there are already four wheels doing the work. But the costs are two more wheels when it...

Soooo.... You sprayed pheromones on the chimney and now skeletons are fornicating with it?

Meh... Keeps our firefighters in business and provides entertainment for spectators.

Welcome to TTS! Is it better to get rid of the 454 for a diesel? Depends. New diesel? Not if the system needs DEF. And what motorcoach? I had a buddy whom had a Class B with the GM 6.0L gas v8 and 6 speed tranny. Claimed that he got 10 mpg running up and down the East Coast when limiting...

While not able to foresee the future, purchasing a house right now is not looking good from an investment standpoint. Am seeing where listing times are starting to stretch out again. Interest rates are going up. And people are actually getting called back to the workplace and needing to...

Yeah... And that is one of the reasons I now have a DVR. To record all those millennials whom still cannot drive *despite* all the nanny add-ons :D

The used vehicle market is completely whack right now. MrMarty's link is a good example of that. Try looking at asking prices for Ferds of the same era and it will really blow the mind. Some of them push into the mid $20K range. At the moment this nuttiness is due to shortages of new...

Got some bad news. That line was crossed. And not a single shot was fired. Despite a driver's license physically sitting in your wallet, RealID turned it into a digital ID complete with facial recognition ability, fingerprint(s) and financial account information. Oh, and it is RFID readable...

Yes, I totally get peer pressure. And that is exactly why I got the nearly new SUV which which replaced the Burb. Wife never liked the Burb. Only really got the newer SUV as I knew the wife would love it and I was tired of the Burb needing too much unscheduled love. The newer thing had...

There are two ways to look at this: 1) Will repairs exceed the vehicle's value. 2) Investing in future use of a reliable platform with the intent to keep as long as possible. Caveat is that spare parts remain commonly available. Only downside to this path is whether any of today's technology...

Could not see from the photos on whether there was a ECT sensor in the head. Or more specifically, if one is not in the port by cylinder #8, might consider this. Benefits are twofold. Serves as a stand-by should the primary ECT sending unit by unplugging from #1 and connecting to the port...

Yowza... Digging-up a 9-1/2 year old thread. I guess we will see if the OP even still has the vehicle. But, Welcome to TTS! :)

I think this was it: https://www.tinytach.com/diesel-tinytach

Isn't there a gizmo which straps to one of the injection lines and is able to measure the fuel pulse? IIRC, Leroy had them for sale for a while.

Chicken! :D Afraid of eating some steamed crabs instead of boiled like they do in the Low Country? :) :) :)
