    What brand for brakes!?

    I’ve had good luck with the powerstop brake kits on all my vehicles and they’re reasonably priced. Take the time and go through the break in seating process.

    Adding a TruCool 40k on my Hoe with no factory cooler

    Sorry it took me so long to update you all but I did finish up this weekend with the TruCool install as well as the front-end body work. The 6-AN 5/8-18 fitting worked perfectly into the radiator and the AN tubing kit I got was much easier to work with than expected so I opted to just go ahead...

    Adding a TruCool 40k on my Hoe with no factory cooler

    Yeah, that's the plan more or less. It looks like all I need is a 5/8-18 to AN to go into that upper radiator inlet but that's what I was trying last night and it didn't act like it was quite right. But it was late and I was about to call it a night. I'll check it a little closer tonight.

    I went ahead and decided to order those pre-made lines you suggested. They are really nice. Now I'm having a tough time getting the right AN6 fitting to go into the top of the radiator. It's always something!

    Adding a TruCool 40k on my Hoe with no factory cooler

    Thanks, that's what I needed and I knew you would know! Yeah those lines look great but I've been wanting to try my hand at making some myself. We'll see how it goes.

    Adding a TruCool 40k on my Hoe with no factory cooler

    Hey all, had an accident while on vacation a few years ago causing some front-end damage. Been working on it a few weeks and since I have everything took apart figured I'd add a TruCool. I did go ahead and get the AN hardware that Doubeleive suggested. At least the adapters, I got a hose kit...

    Help with Rust Preventative Underneath

    I decided to try some of the Salts Gone I kept seeing advertisements for and it works pretty good. It's pricey but you only need a couple ounces per gallon mixed into a sprayer. I would probably get some Fluid Film to spray under afterwards. It's an ongoing battle for sure, good luck!

    RockAuto selling fake GM Parts?

    I know this isn't an "OEM" issue but I ordered an AC Delco alternator for my GST a few years back. It came and was not even close to the right alternator but had the correct label on it and the box. Sent it back for a replacement and I didn't think much of it. Got the replacement in, not even...

    Rear Main Seal

    I may get some flack for this but have you tried using some ATP-205 re-seal? This stuff can do miracles on rear main seals.

    Metal on drain plug magnet

    Honestly, if it were me before I started with rebuilding I'd probably dump a bottle of seafoam in it and run it for a few miles and dump the oil. Fill her up with some budget (if there is such a thing these days) dino oil and add another bottle of seafoam for a few more miles. Then change out...
