Snuck in here with with a new to me as February 2022, 2007 RWD 150k 2007, has had a ton of work done. Looking to gain as much info as possible through the forums on preventative driveway repairs to get another 5-10 years with this truck. Overpaid a bit for it out of texas but its super clean and rust free.
Needs:
Top of the windshield chips repaired (small little rust chips)
Slight manifold leak - will get Speed Engineering Long Tubes in the spring
Wheels- will get 24's in the spring. Even for a texas truck the wheels are still peeling and one has a slow bead leak.
Front leather seats, both are ripped on the back portion not the lower (or a new leather cover)
Valve cover gasket (leaking but not dripping yet)
Already done:
Rebuilt trans/converter
Rear main seal
Oil pan pickup tube
305/45R22 tires
New Alternator
New front end quick struts im assuming by selling dealership (z55 removed, truck will get belltech struts in the spring for a 2" drop or so, and ill keep the rear air ride)
New tensioner/belt
Fixed coolant lines/t fitting
New endlinks
New brake switch (fixed cruise control)
New Throttle position sensor (limp mode/TPS codes that came intermittently)
Led conversion
Cold air intake
Borla Exhaust with no resonator
All lights converted to LED
12"sub 1000w amp
Future plans:
HP Tune/Longtubes/24's/2-3 drop/cathedral tails
Love the truck so far, done almost every repair with local parts which is what I love. No wait on anything. Dont mind using chevy generic/tahoe parts either as they can be more than 50-70% less cost. I never experience the z55/z95 suspension new so im not missing anything yet.
