    Shop is telling me my upper control arm bolts are "bad"

    Here is the backstory: 06 Z71 Suburban I did basically a complete rebuild of the front end. SpindleSource tubular UCA's w/ new ball joints. New bolts and alignment cams. Monroe Reflex Monotube shocks on extended brackets. OEM replacement LCA's with MevoTech TerrainTough TTX LBJ's Cognito...

    DRL question

    They also have a tendency to come loose and fall down behind / inside the dash. Easiest way to get at it and it back in place is to pop the stereo head unit out and reach thru Sent from my moto g(6) using Tapatalk

    LED Fog Light Conversion for Denali

    I know this is an old thread... Buy I'm bumping it anyway. Because I'm smart enough to use the "search" function and find stuff that's already been discussed. Curious about doing this on my 06 Z71 Suburban (round fog lights like the Denali). Originally just upgraded the bulbs to LED, but...

    Zerex vs. DexCool

    I know this has been covered a thousand times in multiple threads, and yes I have used the search... I'm flushing and refilling the cooling system on my 06 Z71 Suburban 5.3 (96k, questionable maintenance history prior to me buying it at 86k). The reason I ask is simple... I can get Zerex...

    How To Tell if a Piston is TDC

    Doing the driver's side valve cover replacement, throttle body cleaning and piston soak on my 96 Burb 5.3 All the write ups say make sure none of the pistons are at TDC after you pull the plugs and are going to add the GM cleaner. Well how can I tell? Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Different exhaust brands?

    I ran a Magnaflow on my 96 5.7, little rumble on hard throttle but nearly stock quiet inside. On my 06 5.3 I went with SpinTech. 5000 series Sport SUV. Single 3" in dual 3" out. As you know the factory system comes out of the muffler as dual then "Y" back in to a single out. SpinTech barks at...
