all i have is a eaton lsd and the stock gears for right now. but i plan to upgrade my axles and go to a 4.10 gear. if im not badly fooled most of the guys on here are runnin the 10-bolt rearends and makin huge power and not blowin them apart.

replaced mine after 50,000 miles and when i took the driver side off i had to put vise grips on the piston rod so i could get it out. it had come unbolted from the piston inside the shock. and the bad thing is i have only put like 20,000 on since then and i think my driver side shock is goin bad again. i went back to the shock that ground force put on. if i have to replace them again im gonna find some other shock to go with.


who knows of a good shock for lowered trucks? (other than ground force)

 

i'd say Edelbrock on the shock issue.

 

my truck rides the same, but i just thought it did that because its lowered and the 20's....

 

I just wanted to know so I can possibly go back to a stock factory fog light?
That sucks about the spindles and all. I think I can just piece together a 4/6 with the right springs and or control arms?

 

anyone race any other sierras? i've got a buddy w/ a '04 5.3 quad cab w/ intake exhaust & i think a chip...think i gotta chance? i dont get it cause i've raced a hemi quad cab ram and walked on him but i'm thinkin the 5.3's got me watta u think?

 

your a 5.3 right? you might have him with the weight difference. the only advantage he may have over you is if he launches in 4 wheel. but hell even if he gets you its all bout the fun of runnin right?

 

Hey i got me some pacesetter longtube headers. They came in well yesterday along with my 305/50r20. They look alot bigger than just a 1.5 they will fit on the back but i'll find out about 9am this moring if they fit on the front.

 

lol not when you've got $$$ on it...& no i've got a 4.8

 

U def have a chance. I race my friends sierra w/ the 5.3 4x4 scsb with lts, ory and tune and I beat him on the roll no prob. I can take him off the line with a decent launch and hitting 3rd. Just get a good launch.

On a side note.....

What kind of oil pressure you guys seein on ur RSTs.....mines seems wierd lately. I'm at 40 at idle but at WOT it goes up to/past 80....what are yours?

 

my oil pressure is about the same as yours.....

but now i think im getting the all to well known LS motor "piston slap" now..

i can hear it whens its cold and sometimes when its warm, the wifes LS1 does it and they told me to get used to it lol
