Is it only on the first start up of the day? Or is it consistently puffing white smoke.. like from start up and throughout your drive? Get worse with hard acceleration?
Well, The ECU on our 2005 Tahoe is starting to have issues. Would like to get a fresh one. Hoping it would last until we started doing engine mods, but its not wanting to wait. If possible, would like to get a new one with a mild tune on it, and then able to retune as it gets more modified...
Its hydraboost. If i stay ifs, looking to see whats out there for upgrades. Already have the setup for SAS ready to go. Exhausting all options. Would like to stay ifs, nicer ride for sure. Anyone on here currently have a bolt on kit? Or a pieced together seup?
Thanks! Going to start looking into them today. Mabey look at whats all involved swaping to the 2500 diff. Or a solid axle swap? Keep forgetting to ask on here. What is available for doing a brake upgrade? Have seen something about a package that is for the Police Brake Package.
Yep, it does. Going to swap it out in few months. What would you guys recommend? Would like air lockers front and rear. Richmond or Yukon? Haven't started looking real hard yet. Low on toy cash now for a bit LoL. 6" lift, wheels and tires, transmission rebuild and gears were pretty spendy. Im...
Alright, finaly got it. Watched a few of the school type videos on gear setups. Basically did a little schooling, so i knew exactly what to do. Before I was way off (backwards) on the mechanics of it. Brought it back in the garage, tore it all down and started over. Only took 3 tries on paint...
Final pattern. .04 pinion depth shim. Backlash .06. Overall preload 18 inch lbs. Its the best i could get with the shims i have. Had to tap in carrier shims. Now all berings have about 30 miles on them. So went with slighty above used berings preloads.
Live in Alaska. Its off road as much as on road. Its 200 miles to go grocery/general shopping. In the winter, we get alot of wind here in Delta Junction. Get huge drifts on the highways, deep snow. Summer time its offroad. Live right next to the granite mountain pass. Lots of big rocks, swamps...
Definitely will. Its snowed 3 to 4 inches here in Alaska. Had to get outside projects put away. Bought all new berings and seals. Either tonight, or early tomorrow morning will tear it down and start over. Front diff has to be done too. But wanted to get the rear perfect, so the front will be...
Thanks guys. Have a game plan, bringing it back in garage. This is my first time doing a full, new gear set. Figured out what im doing wrong. Will show some pattern pictures after doing them correctly.
Ok, thinking mabey take .001 or. 002 out of pinion depth. Open lash to .008 or .009. I will post the paint pattern before the ones i have now. To show what it moved to.
Slight whine, growl on deceleration on and off. Quiet hard acceleration, and slight whine at constant speed but on and off. Gears are Motive, non performance. First run was 1 mile and horrible growl on deceleration. Brought back to garage and checked them over. Found pinion preload loose...
