As the title states, I would like to trade my 80 series rear Slee 4" heavy springs for your mediums.

I mean the bottom line is if the owner abandoned it at the shop, it is up to the shop to do something. If they don't, there's not much you can do, you have no claim to it. I've seen a few nice cars rust away because the owner neglected or abandoned it, sucks but don't do anything that is wrong...

I had a problem where I could use cc once, then it would not resume. I would have to set again at desired speed. I cleaned the contacts of the switch and it helped for a few years but is doing it again, I guess I need to check these contacts now, thanks for posting!

The main thing for sound is not to go big on the pipe size and go as big as possible on the muffler size. I custom built a 2.5" mandrel bent cat back with a Magnaflow straight thru perforated muffler that's like 3' long, barely fits in the stock location and goes over the axle and dumps at the...

Sounds good. So is the muffler a chambered or straight thru? Did you try it with and without the resonator? Exhaust can be tricky sometimes with the results. I've tried dozens of combos on various vehicles until I find what I like, and on my Yukon I have headers, high flow cats and at first I...

So I guess you haven't driven it? Can't wait to hear the sound and power comparison. Looks like they sell a straight end kit and a curved up kit for over the frame which is cool.

I've been running these for a few years now problem, but I don't wheel that hard. Like it was said, I had to grind some off the control arms plus I got the one ton tie rods for the drag link that gains about a half inch of clearance. For reference I have slee medium 4" springs and castor plates...

Yea I agree it creates too much of a split between normal and panic braking. I've driven myself crazy testing and tuning before I had realized the different behavior. The more I think about it, I just want to replace it with a proportioning valve to keep it consistent, even though I feel mine is...

I get the idea of regular braking and panic braking acting different because of the nose dive, but the lspv rod pivots at the valve under the boot so I don't understand reinforcing the rod.

I think the main problem is the fan clutch. Parts store fan clutches are garbage. I tried several when I first got my cruiser, right after the real time temp gauge told me things weren't right. (Then finally changed the fluid in my original) Add to it people putting random hood vents or gapping...

You want to keep the cat as far upstream as possible, it needs the heat to be effective. I have a Magnaflow, previously had a nodal. Both keep it up high enough to not worry about.

Great idea, and not hard to put together an emergency kit to keep in the vehicle.

You really should run a bigger one, those little ones fill up too quick (as you started to see). The amount isn't necessarily an indication of health, different engines are just different. You won't really notice a difference but less oil in the combustion chamber means more fuel/air and usually...

Does it not want to take a charge? Ive had three LS vehicles and the engines are always easy crank/jumps. I have several of the Noco GB40 and they give several jumps out of each charge. Had them for years too, keep one in each car, never had a problem.

Interesting, I've always heard fuel hose is okay for coolant but I had my doubts. Thanks for posting!
