Will you be using the stock head unit? If so than I would splcie the signal off the rear doors. Find the wire between the pillar. If not than get your head unit and but a $25 adaptor from any stereo shop. This saves alot of time.

Justin

I will email Keith Vogel from doodles and ask if he can give us a print or if he does t shirts himself. I will start ona design and post it for people to agree upon soon..

Justin

actually he has done alot more "current work" so he has taken mine off that page. here is the correct site..just click continue to access.

hey guys..remember the guy who drew my truck from www.doodlescustomartwork.com . He also designs t-shirts, murals and banners for automobile events, radio stations, etc. He could easily encorporate our ideas for a pattern and even have t-shirts made Let me know if we are still interested..I have his...

Justin

will the fipk void the warranty? i know some dealers won;t bother . Obviously if a code is thrown regarding intake than it wont be but for any other engine cases, will it void?

thanks

Justin

Mike, I've seen a blazer with a spring over conversion in the back and left the front the same. It looked real bad. What you should do is put a jack under the rear of the truck and jack it up another 4". Sit in it and feel the difference. Personally, I feel that with all the weight pushing forward a...

Justin

Now that I have found that I have a 3.42 rear end, I am wondering roughly how much hp is required to at have at least overdrive pull the truck through uphill. I have a feeling this may be a weakness when going to sell the truck. I still want to keep it somewhat able to be worked on under warranty pe...

Justin

I just found out I have 3.42 and I have 31" tires. It's nice on flat and sloping down highway sections but as soon as a slight incline comes, it downshifts to 3rd and pushed 2500 rpm. Don't plan on passing anyone including a big rig going uphill. It's funy how 50000 lbs. passes me sometimes :twisted...

Justin

Yeah, Im sure every crew cab is like that. If you dont have a bed liner you can see that one of our wheel wells is longer than the other near the front of the bed, due to the gas tank. Im guessing that it has something to do with the gas tank and how the wheel wells are different They are. With my ...

Justin

I've made one for the bed..came off a datsun pickup...I like it. Check my member pages under justin

Justin

sure enough I have a 3.42

No wonder why driving on the highway really sucks..all this time i thought i had a 3.73

Justin

anything is better than the paper speakers gm puts in their factory vehicles (besides those equiped with bose) I noticed a BIG difference installing a 400x4 rockfard fosgate, MB Quart reference 6.5" component set and 5.25" in the rear doors. It's alot louder and the high's (ting ting from drummers) ...

Justin

does that code pertain to gmc sonoma's as well?

Justin

doc, thanks for the advice and you made me think a little. I guess what made me like the buell so much was its innovative design and a motorcycle show that introduced it. #1, this will be my first bike and i want to keep it for some time. #2, mainly this bike would never be in the rain and I would b...

Justin

actually there are tweeters on top of the dash. I'm not sure what size but it is better to install them there. People think it looks good to cut holes in the door panel and mount the tweeter flush but I was told to seperate the highs from the mids. Besides, mounting aftermarket tweeters on the dash ...

Justin

Just to fore-warn people with body lifts, when you get hit from the rear or side, expect more damage than a small dent. As most allready know, I backed into a telephone pole last friday going very slow. Mind you i do not have a bumper so my roll pan and tailgate got smashed. Well today i noticed my ...

Justin

I'm just over 6'-1" and I fluctuate between 205 and 195 lbs. and still gaining . this would be my first motorcycle but I have ridden others before. reviews on the 900 firebolt say that there isn't enough power for "big" riders and they say the 1200 isn't as fast as any 900 yamaha or honda but you ca...

Justin

If anyone can help me please do. I am interested in a motorcycle but I am undecided on what to get...Yamaha, or kawasaki but i really like the buell xb12r firebolt. the xb9r suggests that 200lb. people are not to ride them..what do you think heres a pic if you dont know what it looks like and if u n...

Justin

dont worry hobie...after i hit that telephone pole friday night, i had a little too much too

Justin

You really don't have to install the gas filler hose. As for the others, I have no idea. As far as i recall, I only used bolts, brackets and lift blocks. i didn't use any of the hoses..Good luck, any questions, feel free to ask.

Justin

I would guess ontario is different :lol: . I do know that most exhaust shops cannot touch from the cat forward on 1997 and above vehicles...at least in the US. I had a jeep wrangler with hedders, single exhaust then the stock cat got clogged. I cut it open, gutted it, welded it back empty..I tried s...

Justin

It won't pass emissions....maybe adding glasspacks?...bigger diameter pipe? I know that you can go without a muffler and get a little more sound but then u are dealing with the loss of backpressure..that may set of ses light

Justin

are the frames for the crewcab and extended cab the same? All I really want to do is replace my dual exhaust with a stainless steel setup. I went to a custom exhaust specialist (only one in RI who can do stainless steel) and he is booked till mid september. I noticed that gibson makes a 2.5" dual ex...

Justin

I normally throw out the surveys but i cant wait to get the one saying "you gmc sonoma was in on the 23rd of june for survice" survey that was the date my truck went in for the final time for the ses light before replacing the motor.....I will state that I am happy with the result but I will also st...

Justin

my guess is it was a lemon because if it was a designated problem that was occurring in others, they would have known what was wrong with it and corrected it. It first came on at 9000 miles. they finally replaced the motor at 34000

Justin

oh and as the service manager said

you truck basically has 3 miles on it

Justin

all done...drives the same. A little better on the highway. here is what the invoice says C/S service engine soon light is on solid. checked for dtc's found P0300. Checked misfire data found multiple cylinder missfires. Removed distributor cap and found moisture in the cap and little corrosion on th...

Justin

I guess it would be O.K. but it would have to be tubular and resemble a roll bar and have some lights on it

thats what I call a"ghetto construction truck". I have seen that on a dakota and the light are all messed up from boards hitting them

Justin

new motor is in..I get to pick it up tomorrow

Justin

i had a 900lb. jackhammer attatchment to a bobcat along with 15 gallons of diesel once..of course the tires were pushed well into the fenders but i still did 70 on the highway

it just sucks having a small truck in construction..but oh well.we have to make do

Justin

I enjoy having the roll bar. It gives it a baja look. the only thing i don't like about it is how i had to mount it in the bed, thus i cannot carry 4x8 sheets of plywood. I bought a used one from an old datsun pickup for $30 at a garage sale. I chopped it up and spent around 22 strait hours cutting,...

Justin

diesel f-350 regular cab ok?

Justin

for the past week the dealer has been telling me that it will be ready in 2 days...now it is scheduled to be finished on tuesday the 15th.. New crate motor is at the dealer and the old one is out of the truck..Only thing that sucks....I had just changed the oil and replaced the filter with mobil 1 (...

Justin

brule, you had mentioned something relating to this about my misfire #4 throwing the ses code. I had told the service manager about what you had said and they did look into it...and replaced the injectors. Unfortunately it did not stop the misfire..just thought i would let you know and thanx for the...

Justin

i don't know the size diameter of the hose but may i suggest getting a pvc shut off vavle instrad of a bolt?

Justin

i have 31" BFG all terrains on stock rims. they only rub a little on the frame at full lock. Brule (henryj) is running 31" yokohama geolanders and he says they don;t rub at all.. BFG just makes a wider tire at the tread

Paul(quickbiker) has the 5" TM

Justin

I raised this topic up before and as i was told the front is different. Hobie (a2b) said that the 5" TM suspesnion kit would be cleaner, higher and cheaper than figuring out how to bolt on the zr2 guts. He also mentioned that a crew cab with 2" body lift and 31" tires is just as capable as a zr2 if ...

Justin

stopped in to see how things were going and the mechanic took the motor out and is expecting the new one tomorrow..I should have it either thursday afternoon or friday. I am excited...like a kid at christmas time. It will be almost 3 weeks since its been at the dealer.

Justin

nothing wrong with watching movies or playing xbox/playstation while driving..I do it too :evil: http://images.cardomain.com/member_img_a/251000-251999/251351_8.jpg I have a laptop too with an s-video output and the system above has the input. I had a 7 hour drive where the rear passangers watched t...

Justin

GM finally ran out of ideas on how to fix the misfiring code 300 that has been happening with my truck..today the dealer called me and told me to hold on to the loaner for another week because they will be replacing the motor under warranty. the truck has 34k and a new 36k warranty will be issued..s...

Justin

just splice your rear lines to the door speakers and look for an amp that has speaker line inputs...or just get an rca jack that also splices off the rear speaker lines..my friend did that in his maxima..still sounds good

Justin

dealer did step one and unsucessful...they re going to replace the crank sensor now before taking the oil pan off...I do have a loaner truck..2004 silverado z71..its nice but the 4.8L is weak

I'll keep updates and whether or not i get a new motor

Justin

if i could find a way to post audio i would

Justin

the truck has been at the dealer for a week now for the code 300...they replaced the wires, distributor cap, fuel injectors, and called technical assistance to bring up a case number to order crank sensor shims which increase some gap to help misfiring on #1 and 4.. they placed 2 in there and it sti...

Justin

well my luck wasn't any good. It went on again...What should I do? Lemon law? Ask for a new motor? I am a little upset

Justin

finally happy! dealer replaced the fuel injectors, changed the fuel filter and added some fuel treatment free of charge...quite shocked....I think it was because this problem has been occuring for quite some time and it hasn't been fixed. So far i have put 200 miles on it and no ses code..I drive 18...

Justin

make a roll bar..looks sportier

the sportsman 600 atv is 47" wide....looks like I may sell the roll bar or attempt to make bed rails and mount it on them...Just have to find time between work

Justin

Mike, I think that because you have your torsion bars fully cranked, it may look too high in the front....I only touched the drivers side to level it out. If it is lower than everyone elses, think about buying shackles..I bet it would level the truck out

Justin

1/4-1/2" lower in front sounds right

fr = 21"

fl = 21 1/8"

rr = 21 1/2"

4l = 21 1/2"

Justin

if you guys have 10" subs, do you have the correct airspace from the box? Can you still fully lock the rear seat? What was the mounting depth of the magnet? I keep looking and I just can't seem to figure out how that fits.... My box with the 8 just barely fits, has the correct airspace and has 1/4" ...

Justin

enjoying the single life (only 21) while dating the same woman for 3 years...No plans for kids any time soon...I am looking to build my own home after i graduate..i would prefer to have a mortgage and have a decent home before having kids

I have a spare set of rear bumper brackets...If you ever decide to buy the body lift, you can have my brackets for free(pay for shipping) and you can weld the two together to get increased strength .....thats if it can be done

dealer called and said the problem was a misfire #4 throwing code 300, not 400. Service technition said engine skipped to throw the code they will be replacing the fuel filter and adding fuel treatment to hopefully clean the injectors. If the problem persists, they will replace the fuel injectors th...

honestly, My truck at 33,000 miles still has the rear end higher than the front by 1/2"-1".

I have the flip out lcd.. occasionally i bring x-box to play games or watch dvd's on long trips. I had intentions of mounting the x-box somewhere just not sure where to

Justin

:arrow: front bumper does not need the suggested brackets...I just bent the stock ones to make the front bumper look normal. As for the rear, I had a roll pan so you may want to ask someone elses opinion. :arrow: No steering column problems. I can pretty much fit my index finger between the manifold...

Justin

I think you need to take the plastic piece beneath the steering column off before you can pull the trim off. There are 2 screw holding the trim piece in the guage cluster and several screw holding the trim piece beneath the plastic piece I described under the steering column

Justin

nope, Veronica's rear bumper was black...Didn't like it so thats why i went with the roll pan

Justin

I could use that after i bring it in thursday for the SES light then it will most probbaly go off for the (I don't know how many times)

i orderred a Power programmer today and I am wondering what people are using with 31" tires..or if anyone knows what setting is close to what the zr2 shifts like?

after installing stock air filter, cleaning out MAF screen, the SES went on once again... This is the second to last time this will happen!!! It has been occurring since 9k and now it has 30k and is still doing it.. :x I will listen to their senseless bs one last time and if they fix it then good bu...

Justin

Well after cleaning the K&N, I thought it solved the problem. Unfortunately, it didn't and SES came up again. I took it out and put the factory air cleaner in. I figured its not worth it. If this doesn't solve the problem, I think I will stand at the service center and have them call detroit to see ...

I had bought and installed taylor wires when the truck had 24k. At the same time, the Stupid SES light continued to go on and off.

finally heard from fabritech The conversion will fit all S-series trucks, except for ZR2 models which we think to be slightly different and 2wd models.

this is what i am talking about

appearantly, if you want to get rid of the "orange" in the stock headlamp, someone has done it. First preheat a conventional oven to 250. put the headlamps in for 10 minutes. You should be able to scrape the orange reflectant off the plastic. After it is off, put lamps back in over for 10 minutes, t...
