    Dual Battery Setup using OEM parts?

    thanks for the wrieup. I have a 2018 tahoe and i am planning on doing a dual battery setup also. This helped me map out the layout, but I think im making my own since I plan on running 1/0 cable to both with a bigger alt upgrade. I think I will just run parallel with a relay for an isolater...

    Need help for Lower Control Arms

    I just went through this myself. I went with the Mevotech TTX LCA's and I am happy with them so far. They seem stronger than the stock ones.

    Need CV axle shaft replacement

    Yes I understand that, but I was thinking it would be obvious since this site breaks the trucks down by year. But I'll at it in anyway. Its a 2010 LT 4x4.

    Need CV axle shaft replacement

    So my boot ripped on my front CV axle shaft. I'm trying to find what brands are good for replacements. I have checked all the usual auto parts websites and I see a lot of brands that I have never used before. All the prices seem to be close to each other except for the AC Delco that runs 2x...

    Aftermarket LCA's for RC3.5 kit

    So I decided to go with the Mevotech TTX lower control arms and Kryptonite tie rod ends. For tires I decided on going with TOYO AT III in a 33x12.5x20. Now just waiting for the shocks to get off backorder.

    2008 Suspension Upgrades - Bilstein's or Height Adjustable Shocks

    No i have not rode in a truck with them yet. The guy I was talking to did my combo in a GM truck and explain the ride difference to me. I will be leaving the front shock at 0 lift so I am not preloading the front springs for as soft ride as possible from them. I expect it to be a little...

    2008 Suspension Upgrades - Bilstein's or Height Adjustable Shocks

    I chose to go with the Bilstein 6112 front and 5160 rear. If you go that route be prepared for a 6 month or longer backorder. my 6112's keep getting pushed back a month every time the deadline approaches. The 5160's I might be lucky to get by June. I ordered them in November. Just so FYI for...

    Aftermarket LCA's for RC3.5 kit

    I have decided to go with a RC 3.5 kit with Bilstein 6112/5160 combo. I am looking for new lower control arms and I am wondering what people have found for options. I see the stock style ones but I really don't see any aftermarket ones. I am also looking for the rear arms and track bar for...

    LED headlight bulbs

    I was going to pull the bumper anyway to trim it up for better tire clearance. I went ahead and installed them without pulling the bumper since I didn't have time to trim it up yet.

    LED headlight bulbs

    they are working out good. No complaints so far. I still have to pull the bumper again to install the fog lights bulbs.
