Official post whore thread!!!

Well you have to sand all the chrome off of it and use the plastic primer it works pretty good

 

[Capote]

Not after seeing Brandon's.

He didn't use adhesion promoter

 

[BlazingTrails]

What kinda wheel/tire setup you gonna run with the body lift?

Here's my repair/to-do list: (no mods)
-Fix patch/leak located in the bottom of radiator
-New gas cap
-Evaporative Emission Canister Vent Solenoid Valve
-Blend door actuators
-New alternator
-Clean throttle body
-Alignment
-Brake fluid flush and refill

*sigh*

Geez bro

He didn't use adhesion promoter

I used primer, I sanded and thoroughly cleaned the surface. Get a non chrome bar if you want to color match.

Trust me on that one.

Also there is no sanding the chrome off or removing the chrome from that bar.

Yeah a long list......makes me not enjoy my rig as much anymore. Always afraid of breaking something too

 

[Mounce]

Just ordered stepper motors and bulbs for the TB's cluster. Been needing that ever since we've had it.

 

[Capote]

Atleast you don't have a long ass list of stuff like I have to do....

 

[Mounce]

Oh, I do have a list, it's just not as long as yours. I'm miles behind on maintenance and a few repairs..

Example of how far behind on some repairs...needed stepper motors for over a year. Needed thermostat since before we got it.

 

[Capote]

Atleast you trust it to go 400 miles on your long hauls, I don't trust mine anymore to even start sometimes...

 

[Aarkon]

Thats crazy talk

 

[Capote]

Lol nah, ever since the battery swap she has acted very strange

 

[Aarkon]

Strange how?

 

[Denali n DOO]

You know....strange like

 

[Capote]

Every time I start it it'll either crank right away or struggle for a second, seems sluggish at times, especially in the cold, putting the defrost on kills the engine

 

[Aarkon]

What's the cca difference from your stock one

 

[Capote]

This one, which isn't for our rigs btw, is 650, compared to 700 on the old one

 

[Denali n DOO]

Hmmmm....strange

 

[Aarkon]

That shouldn't affect it then

 

[Capote]

This has me to believe it's my alternator again. I might as well replace it, I can't think another why my digital voltage gauge fluctuates so much, lowest is 12.4, then will go up to 13.5-13.2 when driving, then drop as a decelerate

 

[Aarkon]

Get it checked free at a parts store

 

[SnowBlazer]

[Aarkon]

On it!!! You're the best, Ryan!

That's still your throttle body bro. Defrost kicks on the AC pump and the rpm drop from the AC pump is enough to kill it.

I am going to AutoZone to grab some throttle body cleaner tomorrow. Maybe paint the intake resonator blue while it's off too

 

[Stewzer55]

Whores

 

[Aarkon]

On it!!! You're the best, Ryan!

Any time man hes a fellow Iowan so I support his business plus he has helped me out alot

 

[Mounce]

Decals are so yolo

 

[Capote]

You're Yolo, don't hate on me and Ryan because we have the most decals on GMTN, well since I removed a few on mine, he's got me beat lol

 

[Aarkon]

What I only have three

 

[Capote]

Garth wishes he could put a decals on his rig

 

[SnowBlazer]

You're Yolo, don't hate on me and Ryan because we have the most decals on GMTN, well since I removed a few on mine, he's got me beat lol

Really, I have only a total of around 15. But, it's more Colorado culture to have a crap ton of stickers on EVERYTHING.
You guys should see some cars around here...mine is actually pretty modest.

 

[Capote]

Oh my god 15? Lol, I did have you beat until the other day

Yours does look modest, mine is more...in your face and obnoxious...so i'm trying to time it down now

 

[Aarkon]

Sticker sluts

 

[Capote]

Indeed
