Which brings me to my next complaint. Why the **** would GM put the abs pump halfway down the truck instead of in the engine bay like most other cars? It's not like there is a shortage of space under these hoods.

Still going to be happy to get 5yrs out of them..? Now you see where im coming from a little with my frustrations..

Hahaha....

I just needed a break, went to the gym then got back after it. Took me 5 min to get them on. Sometimes you just need to walk away and start fresh later...

I don't blame you, your truck is a work of art. Having an abs unit or line lock in that engine bay would just be an eyesore.

But, for the rest of us, having it in the engine bay would've been nice, haha

Well, I'm finally back on the road, man it feels great to be back in my truck.

Every bleeder screw was rotted and after the first one broke, I said screw it and went to get some new calipers all around.
