Nothing better than an easy fix except a cheap AND easy fix!
right? I was like crap the things probably $80-100, so I was surprised to see it for $17 from gmparts direct list $21, my local dealer gives me a discount so it should be the same price.
I'm just glad it wasn't one of the ones that goes inside the axle behind the bearing, I guess technically it is but the sensor just bolts on

That’s the reluctor. They almost never go out unless someone narrows your rear end and has non ABS axles built. I know that firsthand.

so what is the work around for no rear sensors? split the signal from the front?
The work around, after I replaced the reluctors and figured out they still weren’t gripping the axles, was to call Moser and order the right axles. So not a cheap OR easy fix.

New Interstate AGM $175 from Costco, kind of a pia, you have to disconnect a bunch of crap and move the reservoir.
only welded with it a couple times during the process :shocked: lol
had to re-calibrate the compass and reset the tpms and set the radio preset's the clock autoset.

thinking about getting one of these spoilers I have seen a couple around they look pretty sick, looks like it will run me about $450 shipped, it's fiberglass and then it has to be painted

If you’re going to leave it dropped, I say go for it. Not so sure it would look right if you go back to stock height or lift it.

On the NNBS they came with those stock. I have debated on putting one on mine since I bought it. It’s another thing the painter must have lost.

I think the piece on the truck that Wes posted looks like it is a little more pronounced than the stock one.

I thought I got the wrong tailgate cap on my 2007 when I bought it used until I discovered that they had two different stick tailgate caps. One was simply a round top cap and the other was the airfoil shaped cap. I kept looking for an airfoil style one but ended up trading the truck in before I found one at a price I would pay.
