    Painting Aluminum Forged Rims

    I agree if I had enough $$ and could afford to take off all 4 rims/tires have the tires removed powdercoat the rims then reverse the process and be without the truck for a week(depending on the schedule of the powdercoating shop.) Down the road this WILL be an option and it will be...

    Painting Aluminum Forged Rims

    I have been doing research on painting my Weld Racing aluminum forged rims. I'm a little un clear on my findings.:confused: With them being forged, would I need to clean with dawn, use 320 grit sand paper,then 50/50 water/white vinegar, dry and then use self etching primer? (I also think I...

    Let's hear it Audio Guru's!

    I'm RIGHT THERE with you. I had my stereo planned for a year now. I have 3 amps I pulled from a no longer running vehicle, have most of my wire from said vehicle and installed all new speaker wire and new door speakers and upgraded my charging system and am waiting on the HU. Head unit is...

    Corvette/Silverado Brake caliper compatability

    To answer/comment on the above^^^^^^^ Like dr said it gives added stopping power. For now when I upgrade it will most likely be a pad/rotor only swap. I have some miles left on my pads and rotors are in great shape. I might just have the rotors turned (if need be)and put the thermos on...

    Corvette/Silverado Brake caliper compatability

    Cool. Good info ScottyBoy.:cheers: So the rear disc brakes on mine are single piston and the Burb's are double? And when getting the parts I just get everything for the front as if it was an 05-06 Silvy and everything for the rear as if it was an 00-06 Burb.(obviously both 1/2 ton?) So the...

    SAS/Front end weight question

    Thanks.:cheers: Yeah flipping the transfer case was a new one on me. I had just heard about it and was told that's one way to go with out getting a Ford front end. Made sense (to an extent).:dunno: Ford Kingpins and divorced t's(as you know) are highly sought after and usually EXTREMELY high...

    SAS/Front end weight question

    All passenger to my knowledge. Once again going on what "others" say. With the Chevy Dana 44 I have one of two options. Flip the transfer case or flip the axel and have a certified welder/shop weld the spring pads on the opposite side. I'm still certain I would RATHER have the dana 60 and be...

    Corvette/Silverado Brake caliper compatability

    I did a quick google search and saw 17" as a minimum in 2 posts on two different forums.:dunno: I WON'T stop on that info, but will search further. I might try calling the GM parts counter and or shop and see if someone there can give a solid answer.:thumbs:

    SAS/Front end weight question

    I was worried about the stance of it more so then any axel. i.e. I go with 14" hanger/spring combos and then the front flexes down to 13" with the extra 200(ish) lbs. I wasn't sure if new springs would give like that or not. If it did no one but me might notice an inch,but things like that eat...

    Corvette/Silverado Brake caliper compatability

    When my brake pads start to get low I will be replacing with new rotors (drilled-slotted some "fancy" crap:rolleyes:) and changing to Thermo Quiets. I was thinking of upgrading the calipers too. Adding stopping power to a heavy truck with big tires. The Corvettes have those BADASS 4 piston...
