Due to recent vandalism on my truck :gunguy:, I am forced to make a change on my rims/tires situation for "day to day' driving.:fume: I am changing to military Humvee tires. Only problem is I have 17 X 13.5" rims and they require 16.5'' X 12" rims.:( So far I have only found a limited...

Thanks guys. :cheers::cheers: I'm STOKED!:wookie::wookie:

Got all my lights in FINALLY. One of my next days off I'll be installing them, the high and low HID ballasts kits (5,000K) along with getting X-pel film installed on all of them by Cool Conceptz.:fingertime: Also have the new factory foglights that match. Will be more posting...

Consider it done. :cheers: :lol:

This helped me to understand the different HID colors: How to choose the correct HID kit and install correctly | Turbo Metal Reviews Hope it helps you like it did me. :cheers:

Yeah well my dumb ass DID have a hell of a time taking the retainer out then putting it back in. Good thing I didn't fWONk something up.:ohnoes: TIMES 1,000! :cheers::cheers: Between him and Scottyboy maybe idiots like me can go into an electrical project without accidentally...

WOW :eek: The damn thing should be BRIGHT red with warning labels on it. :lol: Good thing I TRY to practice safety and siconnect the battery when I'm fWONkin' with electrical shiz. :thumbs: It's back on and the truck is running.:cheers:

Thanks again Mike. :cheers: You :rocker:

I am replacing the PITA horns on my '02 Silverado. Well ok just the drivers side high tone is the PITA. :frustration: The aftermarkets aren't OEM and they don't indicate on the horn or the install guide that one is (+) or (-) and both spades are the same size. On the factory it has a special...

Because I'm replacing all 3 front light sets on my '02 Silverado, I decided to go through and re tape wiring as well as adding new wire loom. I found this piece on the frame in the center of the front in the run to the passenger side. What the fWONk is it? :dunno: Thanks for any...

Oh and Mike, I like the page you have in your link with the mods and work you've done on your Silvy. :thumbs:

Thanks Mike and Kris. :cheers: The highlighted pretty much answers my question. I wasn't really grasping why anyone would keep the factory wiring in the mix. What's funny is I've been doing "the big three" to every vehicle I've ever owned. Just didn't realize that's what it's called. :lol:

Sorry Kris I'm not trying to make the question hard to understand. I guess I think people can read minds. :lol: In the big three up grades I see,people LEAVE the stock wire and distribution block and ADD the extra wire and in line fuse. In my case I REPLACED the distribution block and wire...

Sorry I was a little tired when I typed it and didn't finish my thought/question. When it's done most people that I've seen keep the existing stock wire/fusible link in addition to the extra add on. I replaced the factory with all new and was wondering on the benefit of adding an additional...

A while back I bought a 200 amp (100 amp idle) alternator. At the time I couldn't find 2 gauge wire locally without buying a $70 kit. So I used 1 gauge. As you can see I replaced the factory wire and fusible link with new and an in line fuse. I now have found several on line sources...

:welcome: to :tmc: Dave. Nice to see all the add ons and time you spent making the truck "you". :thumbs:

Thanks AGAIN to Dan & Scotty Boy for the original write up and the fuse block tip. I had tried this mod a while back and it didn't work because (as someone suggested) I must not have had the wire grounded good enough. I am putting in new Anzo headlights ,new signals and new fog lights...

Love it. Welcome to :tmc:. Bought some MOOG parts from them in the past and just got an O2 sensor from them. :D Try to go to them first for a part and have told others about them.:thumbs:

OK another update. Check engine came on BUT, Advance auto said the codes were stop lamp/light switch and front left speed level sensor "open or shorting". NO O2's. :D

I thought I'd do an update on my :quote:off road application :quote: of my O2 deletes. I don't know how "common" this will be for some (as Jarrod had no probs) but, for me it turned in to a HUGE fWONkIN' PITA!!!:fume::fume::fume::fume: I'll just refer to the passenger side as I can't imagine...

Thanks to both of you.:cheers: Probably will never beat the tranny up as bad as some. Just want to make sure I have MORE then enough.:D I was leaning towards "build what you got" but, like I said I didn't want to settle for it if the 80 was better in the long run. I would like to have the core...

Yeah the google search is where I started and it seemed that building the 60 up seemed about the way to go just wasn't sure if there was something I was missing. :dunno: No I didn't. I didn't even know it existed. Thanks that would be better then the other.:cheers: DEFINITELY going to...

There seems to be a good amount of discussion on this matter. I have done some research and will continue to do more but, I wanted to get some feed back on the matter. Please bear with me as I get through to my reason for the question. I started with a small oil leak a while back (about a...

Yes it is and as I said I "THINK" the previous owner said they got the gear lash wrong the first time and had to re do when the truck was re geared. Now I'll be the first to admit I don't know fWONkin' shiz about rear ends.....well not on trucks anyway.:naughty: I HOPE it's just a matter...

Not to make this a ghost thread (as it was posted a while back) BUT, check your local laws BEFORE throwing money in to a big exhaust mod. IIRC reading other threads on the matter (and please if anyone knows different feel free to correct me). If you in Virginia still have...
