    5.3 build ideas input please

    I put my Whipple in my 02 at 150k without doing anything to the bottom end. If it had 250k I might have worried. BTW the only maintenance the blower needs is an oil change after 100k miles. Everything needed is included in the kits including intercooler and some include a tune.

    Rear wheel bearing, replace axle?

    I didn’t see this info before I posted. It’s possible that you damaged the axles if the diff went low at all. That’s about the only thing that wears the axles out at the bearings.

    Rear wheel bearing, replace axle?

    This is the bearing design of the OE ones.

    Rear wheel bearing, replace axle?

    There’s no way imo for the axle to be damaged. I replaced my rear wheel bearings on my 02 a couple years ago. The bearings were like new. At 150k. There wasn’t any visible wear to any of the rollers period, nor axles, and these things are beefy. I replaced them with new OE. Just don’t get...

    I’d say your maintenance is “lagging”. ;)

    Junkyard windshield

    Cheaper to buy a new windshield, those tools aren’t cheap. The complete setup a guy needs to remove and reset them costs a couple thousand at the low end. At that point you might as well go into business. Pretty sure I mentioned it, but there are YT videos of guys replacing urethane windshields...

    What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    I have Interstate AGM’s and haven’t had an issue in the cold although last week when it was 15* for a few days I noticed my 02 struggled to turn over. I plugged in the block heater and the next day it started right up so I’m guessing it was just the extra effort to turn over the old iron when...

    Yeah I’m not feedin a small army like you are. If I was ever to lose it long enough for food to go bad,, it would be about fifty bucks worth between my freezer and fridge. But I have never been without power for more than a few hours, power company dude said I’m on a great feeder line...

    Damn storm came back with a vengeance last night, freezing rain hard and the wind blowing at about 50 with gusts higher. I knew power was going to go, I could see transformers blowing up as far as I could see from the second story. But luckily I’m on the same circuit as a care facility nearby...

    How much extra power can one make without unwanted wear?

    Make sure you know absolutely what you’re doing with HPT if you go that route. There’s plenty of people that have destroyed both transmissions as well as engines by tuning them. One bad mistake and it’s over, all it takes is a couple “small” changes in the tune.
