Cause it's not 50! LOL

It was about 70 outside this morning as the sun came up and the daily weather will be in the 80s this week. They were 44-46 this morning, last aired them up after Christmas. The driver's side gets the sun all day so those are always higher now to start with and they were the other day even after driving on the highway a while. So it was time.

seems little high, but assume you know what you doing.

I thought so too at first. Set them at 42 psi which was just enough to equal rear axle load capacity. They wore very quickly at this pressure. Finally listened to BFG tech and put them at 50 and the wear has slowed to a crawl.

These are BFG KO2 LT tires in Load Range C, stock size on 17" wheels.

I am at 40 maybe I will raise mine a bit and see how the wear is.

mine are Nitto load range E on 18

Well I went to take a video of the exhaust when I got home and some how ended up corrupting my SD card in my phone.

Can't get it to do anything... can't even format it... tried several recovery softwares to no avail.

I am not a happy camper right now... lost a ton of pics that are irreplaceable.

I will try to get a video tomorrow... I have spent the entire evening trying to fix my SD card so no video today.

Been there a couple times. After that i back up my pics on the laptop if I remember too. Haven’t yet figured out how to recover data lost, had to just replace sd and move on unfortunately

If you're running something bigger than 265-65-18s, then you probably don't need to add much if any, depends on how much bigger they are. We record the tread depth at every rotation.

Well, consider that tire at 40 psi is has a load capacity of just under 2100 pounds. I think that barely equates to your GRAWR.

On the GM-Trucks forum we determined that the folks complaining about the KO2s being short lived did not run enough air in them. Something to watch for since yours is different.

Put some loctite epoxy on the seperating steering wheel trim and clamped the hell out of it, I'll let it dry for a day and see how it goes.

This thing is probably going to have to sit clamped up for the time being, the epoxy takes 24 hours to cure and I am sure that is at standard temps of around 70deg, it's in the low 50's here till next week, the sample I squeezed out on some cardboard is still wet

I have E85 in a few spots around town, I tried it for the first time the other month. Honestly wasn't impressed. Horrible gas mileage, but I did save I think it was .45 per gallon. I lost about 3-3.5 mpg though using it.

Alright ladies and jelly spohns, here it is...


I noticed today while cruising about 60mph there is a very annoying drone... it makes the road noise from the tires sound like a... wha- wha- wha.... so I think I'm gonna have to add the resonator back in.

I think I will see if they can stick the resonator up in front of the muffler instead of back at the tail pipe... we shall see... I am getting pretty tired of fooling with it at this point.

I think it sounds pretty good from outside the truck but I can't take the drone.

Excuse the dirty engine bay (looks better in person), but it’s pretty much all tidied up. Tested the 35 shot jets and couldn’t feel much of a difference. Worried about this 4L60 tho... I plan on putting in a Performabuilt 4L80 which they claim holds 1000+ rwhp. They also have a killer warranty. As previously posted, i might ditch the LSA blower I have for some twins. Also.... had to get a matching Yeti
