    LT Tires

    LT has nothing to do with size. they make a P265 70 17 and an LT265 70 17. the LT will usually be a heavy duty tire for 2500's but can be run on 1500's. generally they will have a rougher ride on 1/2 tons but a harder tread compound that lasts longer. i HIGHLY recommend against firestone as...

    lift and tire clearance.

    body lift is going to be your only other option since your suspension will be extremely maxed out from that lift.. the 2" body lift from zone is 300$ and the 3" from Performance Accessories is 600$. in combined with the 500$ for the 3.5" your better off just getting the 5" rough country with a...

    Service Brake System - just want to stop the dinging

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jo76ylqgUR8 see if this applies to you but probably not. my abs/parking light wouldnt' come on till i hit a bump. basically the solder joints inside the abs unit go bad after a while but if you have any basic soldering ability, its super simple to resolder them...

    Vibration

    vibration at idle while stopped is going to be motor mounts/transmission mounts for sure.

    6 Inch suspension+3 inch level+3 inch body lift pics

    looks like 20x12's right? just want everyone to realize the wider the wheel you run the smaller the tire you can fit. which is why he has to run a 6+3 to fit a 35 and i'm running just a 6" lift with my 20x12 and 33's and i still rub. had i chosen a different wheel, i could fit bigger tires...

    Changing rotted backing plates/dust shields

    this thread got me curious. i've had a little squeak in the back of my truck for a while now. i already took it apart and figured out it was my parking brake shoe, but i wanted to check out these backing plates. not to make anyone jealous, but here's what my stock 200k mile backing plates look...

    Truck got sideswiped this morning *pics*

    been there done that. same thing happened to me but the guy sort of got away. his bumper/license plate fell off but he didn't have insurance anyways. so i had to pay 250$ for my uninsured motorist deductible. not even worth going to court to try and get that back from the guy. good luck...

    Baer Eradispeed +2 Installed on NBS Tahoe

    yes, the alumasport calipers use the full rotor. but its over twice as much for that kit than what i paid for the eradispeed +2 kit. eventually i'll upgrade the calipers but for now its worlds better than what i had. i was able to get the eradispeed +2 kit for $535 shipped to my door. edit...

Rear eradispeed +1 kit is on order. Truck is a 2000 NBS Tahoe 2wd with a 6" RCD lift kit on 20x12 moto metal 962's and 305 55...

    Wheel decision help!!

    i've seen 10x more kmc slides than ck375's and i work at a tire shop. if you want something less people have, go with the 375's. and i'd stay with 22's. roads are really shitty here so i'm kind of impartial and i don't like having to worry about every bump in the road.

    Just finished the lift on my first 2 door!!! Pics!!

    looks good. a year or two from now when your replacing tires you can do the switch if you want. but on 1/2 tons i really wouldn't go any bigger than 35's.

    valve cover gasket replacement

    valve cover bolts should be 106 INCH lbs of torque. please note the inch pounds, not foot pounds. i recommend doing each bolt in increments by hand until you reach the final torque. that way one isn't being fully torqued down while the other 3 are still completely loose. make sure to thread...

    throttle body spacer
