The MOOG tie-rod ends have a lifetime warranty. I have had issues with the steering starting to "track" on particular roadways and then the truck just kinda wants to steer itself. That combined with the clunking drove me up a wall. So replaced the intermediate shaft and now the tie-rod ends. Next I'll probably put new MOOG ball joints in, some energy suspension bushings, and then it should handle up front like a dream!
Bought the SoCal gauage pod from a member of another forum. I think if you google so cal gauge pod you'll find em. Around $125 or so?

... you have a pretty cool wife.
i cant complain though, last week my gf took the front end of my truck apart, pulled the bowtie out of the grill, sanded it and painted it to match my truck (primer, wetsand, about 6 coats of white and 3 coats of clear) and i didnt even mention i wanted it done.

So cool for both of you!ur not thread jackin! Gotta buy the Z06 Caliper brackets, I have the guy who makes them if you want his info. Then grab either a set of 14" Powerslot rotors (there are a boatload of them used on sss.com) or 15" rotors from supersub on sss.com. Banjo bolts, crush washers, stainless lines, and brake pads and you are DONE!
Very easy mod. Plan on dropping around $1300 for the entire setup if you run 15" rotors, and about $1000 for the 14" option.
The 14" powerslots are slotted only and don't utilize the entire brake pad. The 15" are x-drilled and slotted and use the entire Z06 pad.

I'd wanna use all the pad. That was the same problem I had w/ my stock rears!
Thanks man! Appreciated!

-Did u replace intermediate shaft w/ a GM or a MOOG part? I need to do this.
Ya, $125 on the pod last I checked. Hopefully not more, cause I still don't have mine.
