It's a good way to go. If you build as a pistol first you can make a rifle from it later if you want and back to a pistol ( Mind having the short barrel on with the stock, NFA NO NO unless you pay the tax man his blood money!) Make sure it transfers as OTHER/FIREARM on the 4473 NOT as a pistol or ri...

My first Modern Sporting Firearm. Built as a 10.5" pistol. I still have some items to add but I got everything test fitted that I had today.

04crewvt

I figured I was close either KWA or WE. You running Green Gas or using the adapter to run from propane? I was looking at the WE G17 Gen 4 clone myself as a practice gun but I picked up the real G23 first. Will get the other at some point.

04crewvt

My newest addition is a Glock 23 Gen4 with a Wolff 9mm ported conversion barrel, I replaced the factory serrated trigger group with a G22 smooth face trigger and added the Glock extended slide stop. Still not really a fan but good for practice since we carry the G22 for work and I am not supposed to...

Taurus PT92 Airsoft?

04crewvt

My newest is a Glock 23 4thgen that I just performed a .25/c trigger job on after replacing the factory serrated trigger bar with a smooth bar from a G22, and added the extended slide stop. i bought it as a practice piece for work since we are not allowed to shoot our duty G22's at any time other th...

There are a number of FB gun pages as well as armslist but for some reason everyone thinks used guns are worth new prices right now and few GP100 's show up. I can get new but $700—750 depending on model and finish is a bit steep!

04crewvt

I'm looking for a .357 wheel gun myself. Since the purchase of our former duty weapons for a dirt cheap price fell through $225 for our fixed sight Ruger GP100's, I find myself with lots of .38 practice ammo and nothing to shoot it through except my wife's Charter Arms UC lightweight .38 we picked u...

Yup still have everything listed above. I remove as soon as sold. If interested let me know

04crewvt

7 1/2 months goes by fast! William Michael Sterling was born on April 8th 13:56EDT 20 1/4" and 7lbs 9.7 oz. And yes MiniVan in the drive as of Tuesday the 10th 2003 Dodge Grand Caravan Sport in the drive replacing Michelle's Ford Fusion.

04crewvt

I went through 3 Red Tops in 8 years each one with the same problem of failing to keep a charge after the 3rd year in my very cold VT winters. Alternator was fine no unexplained drains and 4 or 5 days a week of 60+ mile drives to give a good charge. Never again!

04crewvt

It's been some time since I checked in here, Just wanted to say hi and let you all know I'm still around and as of Monday the 8th my newest family member made his arrival! William Michael Sterling was born 13:56 EDT 20 1/4" and 7lbs 9.7oz!!!!! He and his mom are well and we are all home. Along with ...

Hypertech programmer sold check top of list for new prices on remaining items!

For those that know that my crew cab went away to get a more family oriented (read can hold car seats and get better gas mileage) Cadillac. My GF Michelle and I had our 20 week ultrasound yesterday and we will be adding a baby boy to the family in April! we are thrilled!

04crewvt

Includes rear shackle bushing for frame - metal sleeve from factory busing must be reused though.

04crewvt

OK Snow tires sold a couple updates on the list. I do have a few odds and ends lying around like an electrochromic rear view mirror, a full center console for the earlier trucks with the cassette deck in the lower console, a set of Deluxe extended visors for a dark charcoal interior. Anyone interest...

Some really nice weapons being shown here. The one I'm really itching to get out and shoot, is our Mosin Nagant, although I REALLY NEED to get the dies and recipes to reload for that one!!! 3 boxes cost me about $75 and had to look around for quite a while before I found them. . What are you shooti...

VT summer gas with ethanol at best 18 winter as little as 13 if using 4x4.

04crewvt

Hell if could have gotten 20mpg I would have kept it. I was lucky to get 15-17 in mixed driving. The Caddy does 19-22 and has 275 HP to motivate it .

04crewvt

Those are the specs direct from Chevy on the Hp.

04crewvt

Mini-Van NOOOOOOO! Maybe for Michelle but not as my primary rig. Now since I have the Cadillac bug Maybe an Escalade would not be a bad compromise LOL.

04crewvt

Well the choice to replace the crew apparently came at just the right time. The need to have one car seat has become the need for 2 - in about 7 1/2 months!

04crewvt

Want the Kel-Tec! just no funds right now.

04crewvt

No idea offhand, These were purchased when i first got the truck and was adding shackles to the back but i never installed them. They should fit all s-10's from the 90's till the end of production though as i think they all used the same size. If you need to look up the exact specs the stock number ...

04crewvt

Bump!

04crewvt

OK so cabin air filter is going to have to wait. Apparently they have a 80lb contortionist install them at the factory because there is no way a plus size individual is going to be able to reach let alone remove and install the replacements LOL

04crewvt

Maybe some shots of the dash after some wire harness cleanup and finishing of the radio mounts. Also have to pull the dash pad and re-glue up near the defroster vents it pulled up some the first time I used the heat (apparently a common problem) easily fixed just have to take off the a Pillar covers...

After a few tweaks including new tires in the front to match the ones the dealer put on, SeaFoam through the fuel system and oil and some high rev bursts the manual says are needed for best performance I am now averaging 21.9MPG with occasional spikes up to 24MPG. Next up this week new fuel filter, ...

04crewvt

I have a set of 3inch rear spacers and 1inch fronts I took off my crew before I sold it. They were hub centrist ones from CompleteValue still in good shape if anyone is looking for a deal on a set. They need a bit of cleaning but are otherwise in great shape.

04crewvt

chances are it was not flashed back to factory before being sold which locks it to the VIN it was programmed to. I guarantee this to work the way its supposed to on a non modified ECM.

First real time MPG check 136 miles, 60% highway apx 70mph, 30% country roads apx 40mph, 10% city 25mph.

I am not going anywhere, too many good people to lose track of and I still have too much insight to impart as needed. Not that I wont be getting on a Caddy forum as well but spending less time with all of these as real life is more engaging and taking much of my formerly spare time

04crewvt

Well my truck was still in top shape especially for a VT vehicle. No rust except on the underside clean paint and body panels with only a minor dent in one lower rear quarter and some scratches here and there. Mechanically as far as i know everything was up to snuff but who knows if they will find a...

04crewvt

Well I did it, sad as it was to get rid of a truck I still really loved, the debate came down to fuel economy and passenger space. After trying on more than 20 different cars for size my "New" rig is in the driveway. And here she is! http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k83/04crewvt/IMAG0150-1.jpg 2002...

04crewvt

They are nice i have a set on my MAC90 and they work well.

04crewvt

LOL My size 13 6E's might be a problem in that one. I am going to have to go a few places and try a few vehicles on I think.

04crewvt

Yea the Troopers are basically the same as Blazers right? My last Blazer 1995 with 243K on it was what I traded in for the Crew it got 22MPG on average.

04crewvt

Looks like they were discontinued in 2004 and currently none within 500 miles for sale according to usedcars.com but will keep an eye out

04crewvt

I would love the crew as a spare I am currently still running the 98 Tahoe but it's been down all winter. Needs a driver side front seat and still need the gasket work done as well as finishing up the A/C rebuild from last summer. The GF has a 2011 Ford Focus 2 dr nice car for her but I can't drive ...

04crewvt

LOL yea if I had the scratch for a toy I would have a Spyder but very impractical for the maybe 4 months of riding time up here. As for cars the back story is here I actually have to fit in them to drive them. I am 6'5" tall and am 365 lbs with a 5 Xl jacket size. My knees don't fit under most cars ...

04crewvt

Yea misses almost any of the criteria for a family vehicle.

04crewvt

Truck is 8 this March just under 80K. Has cost me at least half of it's purchase price in repairs and upgrades gets less than 15 MPG all winter and maybe 17 in the summer, gas prices predicted to go to $4+/gal this summer and now the back seat is woefully inadequate for a car seat. Thinking it's tim...

04crewvt

So anyone with a battery brain want to donate it to me? LOL I am sick and tired of having dead batteries in the Tahoe and would love to disco the reserve battery on calls

04crewvt

Remember also those window stickers were set to reflect the average MPG on unleaded gas not the Ethanol blend we all are forced to run now. That alone dropped about 1/2MPG from my truck when i could no longer get straight gas. I am in Northern VT and I average 14.7 or so in the winter mixed city/hig...

2012 May it be a damn sight better than the last year for all of us.

4 nice new studded snowtires, Cooper Weathermaster ST/2's. Sort of a pre-Christmas gift since the previous ones (7 years old) had one tire sidewall dry
rot failure and one blowout at highway speeds on another a couple weeks later,

04crewvt

Nice I still need to get me one of these for my collection of SHTF gear. Some nice accessories available for them now too.

04crewvt

Merry Christmas one an all.

04crewvt

You might luck out and get away with the sensor only but usually the entire hub/bearing assembly needs to be replaced to get system working right again. One of the biggest problems (and I don't know where you are located from your profile) is that corrosion builds up inside the hub when the seal on ...

04crewvt

Hey, I figure it's a long shot but do any of our former owners of crews have an Oxygen sensor lying around the would like to part with? My bank 2 sensor 1 has given up the ghost and before I went with one from the parts store I figured I would check to see if any of the gang had one just collecting ...

04crewvt

Anyone out there with a spare A/C compressor that would fit a 95-2000 Tahoe? Need one for my 98 and the only local place with a used one wants $180 bucks for it. Just figured I would see if anyone has something laying around before looking elsewhere.

04crewvt

Yup the price jumped in the spring cost of lead is way up.

04crewvt

I knew through FB a little of what you were going through. I am glad you are fighting and hanging tough to try and beat this. While not a prayer person I certainly will keep you in my thoughts. My mom was also hit with breast cancer and has been cancer free for nearly 15 years now so I also have bee...

04crewvt

I had a Jasper remanufactured engine put in mine at 63K due to a main bearing failure,
probably due to coolant from lower intake getting into the motor. Having the job done at the dealership (cheapest quote I got) was right about $3800 out the door.

04crewvt

Looks like different part numbers so probably not worth trying, RockAuto the box is around $400 plus core charge, local sealership wanted $800 to replace guess I will keep running for now. It still work just getting really sloppy and leaking some. I really wish I could have picked up the $500 parts ...

04crewvt

I wonder if the steering gear box would work in my Tahoe if it's still around? Mine is about kaput.

04crewvt

As header says I am now on my 4th right hand wheel bearing in the crew since I got it in 2004 75K on the rig, 2 failed due to ABS sensors getting corrosion in them and 2 the bearings themselves went. Sure wish these were a sturdier design and yes there have been 3 different after market brands so it...

7 years after last manufacture date for the last s10 crew cabs will be next month. Not surprised to find Aftermarket parts starting to dry up for all the s-10's except for the ZR-2's. It's one of the reasons I bought a set of energy suspension poly bushing kits for my leaf springs years ago and put ...

04crewvt

The RSX's have been discontinued so the part number is no longer on their site you might find it on Amazon or somewhere like that. Looks like the bilsteins are the way to go now.

04crewvt

Might be cool to get together I have friends in Keene area I have not seem in quite a while and the Crotched mountain ski area is where my crew got it's only taste of trail riding with NEZR2 club a few years back

04crewvt

I still am OK with my Rancho RSX shocks, I might like the ride better on Bilsteins but without a local ride to test them out I have no way to compare. 6 years and about 60K on them and counting.

04crewvt

So who here has the most miles and the least? I am at 73K on mine

04crewvt

I thought I had killed my Red Top this winter, had not driven the crew all winter but had charged the battery in about December then truck got buried under snow for the rest of the winter. Battery flatlined and froze. Two weeks ago I went to get it running, brought the still mostly frozen battery in...

I just scanned my license into the computer with a flatbed scanner ( had done that when I got it) and just linked the copy to them as requested, took all of 20 minutes to get confirmed

04crewvt

Finally set up on echolink on my home computer and iPhone (when I have a WiFi signal only since I have no voice or data plan on it currently)

04crewvt

Very nice
