Seriously. From Mr. Closethehoodandwalkaway himself, no less.

Mark made me open the hood in the first place! I had to see if mine had the threaded pulley. Since I was already there and the grinder was within arm's reach and I had 5 minutes to spare...

I guess I was just feelin frisky to actually do stuff outside for a change. This weather has me like a dog when the tie-out snaps.

I'm just gonna close this tab and walk away. I don't belong in the GMT800 section, anyway.

Word. Especially since I've now opened up a can of worms. Probably gonna have to clean and paint the other pulleys now. :rolleyes:
Yeah I took a look at painting the pulley on the Silvy and decided there’s about 100 other things under the hood that would start bothering me if I start with that so I walked away. Maybe on The Beast since I’ve already put in some work under there lol.

I’m pricing shocks for my ride and the Bilstein 5100 note says except ZW7 RPO code. Well I just so happen to have the comfort plus ZW7. Will they still work or is there something that different about it?

Do you have RPO G65? With ZW7 (Premium Smooth Ride) those are the Nivomat shocks on the rear, and changing to a conventional shock requires the coil spring to be changed, too. Need stiffer springs without the Nivomats.

EDIT: any chance the shocks are not OE now?
