So what are the best spark plugs for our trucks? I figure I'll do the plugs and wires when I do the headers, since I watched a couple of videos on the subject...

I would suggest going back with the AC Delco Iridium plugs... that's what I did.

Hard to argue with a 100,000 mile plug.

Havent been on in a while, and havent made much progress with any mods yet due to life. But I did get out and do a full detail on the Tahoe today.

I bought a bunch of products from Chemical Guys, and finally got to use them.
Wash- CG Honeydew
Sealant- CG Whitelight
Wax- CG Liquid Wax
Used CG V07 on top of those and wheels
Interior- CG Silkshine (love this stuff)
Leather- CG Leather cleaner, then CG Leather Conditioner.
I think the results were pretty good.

They do make good stuff. I just switched to their Honeydew wash soap and it’s great plus I consider it a good value since it’s so concentrated that I don’t use much, plus I recently bought their stain extractor which worked great. I bought a gallon of Silk Shine a long time ago and it works great on plastics and vinyl. It’s great stuff lol.

I love the SilkShine. When I run out of this bottle, I'll order the gallon of it.

Interesting thought, but I don't really see how that could be happening. With the drop spindles, none of the suspension angles change really. Only the axle angle (if AWD/4WD). You're simply moving the wheel bearing/hub up 2". I had my alignment checked after installing them and it was still dead on.

The only thing I've read about the McGaughy's spindles is that you lose a little full lock turning radius, which can be easily remedied by grinding down a little material off the spindle.

Don't think that's related to what I'm experiencing though as the issue isn't happening when only at full lock.


I suppose my three potential courses of action right now are....

1. Try to get access to a Tech2 (or similar) scanner that can read/record the individual sensors data to target which corner is the culprit, then go from there.
2. Throw another set of wheel bearings/hubs on it and cross my fingers it wasn't wasted money.
3. Put the factory spindles back on, deal with the embarrassment of the "squatted" look for a few hours, drive around, see if the problem is gone.


I am going through the same thing at the moment with my Suburban, I chose the Beltech 2/4 drop. I've since swapped out the rear sensors, (No Joy) I have new front sensors, but before I throw anymore parts at it, I need to find someone near me with a Tech 2 scanner to actually see if we can pinpoint the problem.

Replaced driver side exhaust manifold gasket, fixed one of two snapped exhaust manifold bolts as I couldn't fix the very rear bolt that snapped even with the head. Purchased the Dorman 917-107 kit and took care of the problem. No more exhaust leaks and found that my PCV grommet was torn; replaced and runs a lot smoother. Greased all front suspension components that required it, should be ready for a summers worth of towing and camping :)
