    Let's Honestly Talk Glow Plugs Here...

    The Cummins Grid Heater isn't really much bigger, when it's on, you know, because the Lights Dim and the Voltage drags down to about 12v...but same thing with the Duramax, especially when running the Glow Plugs & Grid Heater, it still drags the Voltage down. I remember back when I deleted the...

    Let's Honestly Talk Glow Plugs Here...

    That's pretty much all I'm finding too. Somewhat longer of a Crank & some people say they have an Emissions Function, but we know how we all feel about about Emissions BS.

    Let's Honestly Talk Glow Plugs Here...

    Are they REALLY, HONESTLY, SERIOUSLY needed? My Cummins doesn't have them, it just uses a Grid Heater (which the Duramax uses as well, along with Glow Plugs) The only thing I could see by NOT having the Glow Plugs, is the occasional hard start when it is REALLY cold, and I mean around 0*...

    Red Line Synthetic Oil

    I used to use their Motor Oil in my old Avalanche. Never had any problems.

    Looking for Highway tires for CCLB SRW. Options.

    Cooper is a good Tire. Had the LTZ's on the Duramax and loved em, very quiet too. Have the AT3's on the CRD and they are awesome as well.

    Sale Incentives At Tire Rack

    Was looking at Tires just now and noticed they are doing some nice Promo's. On just about any / every Tire (not all) you either get NHRA Tickets, Money Rebates, or 7 Day Vacations. There could be other things that I didn't fine yet, but if you're in need of Tires, seems like now is a good time...

    "Torque" Brand Helper Bags

    Anyone ever hear of them? They seem to be a pretty damn good direct Knockoff of Firestone (even down to the hardware and mounting brackets), that costs a good amount less.

    Cree LED Headlights

    Yep, they're all the new rage. Brighter than Halogen, not brighter than HID, and an even MORE UNCONTROLLED Pattern than HID. I tried them in the Fogs on my Cummins and they looked good coming at you, but from the inside, I could barely tell a difference when they were On or Off, from the...

    FINALLY!! A REAL Leveling Kit For 01-10 GM HD Trucks

    I'm just sayin...with all the Praise that Cognito gets, they cheap out and use Balljoints that in some cases, have shit the bed in 500 Miles. People replace the Balljoints with Raybestos and have 0 Problems.

    FINALLY!! A REAL Leveling Kit For 01-10 GM HD Trucks

    ...and they use Raybestos Balljoints. WAYYYY better than the POS's that the Cognito's come with!

    Glowplugs...So I'm Screwed Aren't I?

    Yea, if the WTS Light stayed on unusually long, it's prob a GP. I still haven't replaced the #4 in my Truck and it Runs & Drives just fine. My friend that helped me get out the broken one the first time around, just had a baby, so he's been busy with that and hasn't had time to help me get the...

    Injen / Amsoil LBZ Air Intake System

    The airbox would work, but you'd have to Fab the piping in-between the airbox to the turbo elbow.

    New 1pc Projector Headlights

    Yea, it sticks out enough there at the top that you can rest your beer can on it. And I gotta look at the wiring, I think the China man might have done something backwards, when I put the High Beams on, it blows the Fuse for the High Beams....or I'll just leave the High Beam Plugs undone...

    New 1pc Projector Headlights

    Had my eye on these for a while, and finally said Efff it, and bought em. Install is a lil tricky since they are 1pc, so you need to get all the tabs lined up at once while installing them. But with a lil persuasion, they'll go in. Kinda makes the front end look like the 2015 Tahoe /...

    It's been decided... 02 C2500hd LB7 6 speed is finding a new residence in my stable

    I'd do a FASS over AirDog. There's been alot of problems with them, not only reading here on the interwebz, but also first hand experience with local trucks running them.

    Lighting choices

    They only make them for 9005 / 9006.

    Lighting choices

    They're just 35w bulbs being under-driven with a 25w ballast. That why there's so much color. The opposite would happen with a 55w ballast on 35w bulbs, it would wash out the color.
