Ours is 7.625" (7 5/8 ) GM 10 bolt It is the same cover as the older 7.5" GM 10 bolt. These were used in the Astro, Safari, Camaro, S-series, etc. There may be differences in seals and bearings between the two. Check out the thread on the correct gasket to use. Holes or slots for oiling the differe...

So I go into advanced auto to get a rear wheel seal. They can not tell me what size seal or diff gasket I need unless I tell them the ring gear size. All I knew was I have 3.42 gears. Tried searching, does anyone know what size I have? Or is more info needed?

Oh how I wish Skidz still made flares so I could have 33s.

Just make the cuts dude. Thats what I did, looks clean!

That was my next guess. ha ha

Ok, I have a leak coming from where the parking brake cable goes into the drivers side wheel assembly. I didnt think that the parking brake was attached to the brake line assembly in any way. :?: Was I wrong? Or has anyone else has a simmar leak? I have not taken the wheel off yet, and probably wont...

I see why GM is goin down the tube

blks10

Where can you get those clamps? besides buying a whole new boot kit?

blks10

Thanks for the advice. I will be checking it out after work today. How do you get the bands off the boots? Do you have to cut them and put new ones on?

Thanks!

So I went to change my oil, started looking around while it was draining and saw that both of my lower control arms had grease on inside of them. Not just a little, but a lot. I have never seen so much grease! Anyway, I checked the CV boots, and nether seem to be loose or ripped. Has anyone had an e...

If your truck is rusty you need to do your best to seek out lubricant for the threads. Sure it will also help at the bolt head too. Pulling carpet and body plugs might seem like a pain now, but better than breaking bolts. An impact helps rattle the rust loose. It can be helpful if you have it avail...

Soak them daily for longer if, need be. Trust me, it works! I successfully did many mods or repairs on a 16 yr old POS heep without breaking a fastener but, it may happen tomorrow on a 7 yr old cc. Eyes wide open is what I like things to be. So I should just soak what I can see under the truck, rig...

...what 2001 ford was that? Fleet truck caught fire. Four different harness with either of two connectors for the injectors were possible for a 2001 fullsize 4x4 extra cab 5.4L auto. None new or used available in the USA. Next time use the five gallons of diesel instead of four fire extinguishers. ...

Spraying carb cleaner works too. I always heard 10 years was all the law required for parts, but not from a solid source. I recently found Ford parts discontinuted and no longer available for a 2001 model. Nothing aftermarket either. Had to build all the engine compartment wiring from scratch. :sho...

Given what you've replaced have you checked the vac pod on the front axle shift. It can act that way if the pod comes loose from it's mounting bracket or the bracket comes loose from the fender or if the shift cable hangs up preventing full engagement of the front differential. Trust me on this I'v...

Update: I have changed the TCCM, encoder motor, and the dash switch on my truck. It is still having the same problems. When I pull the fuse, It will work for the first, say, 10 or so cycles from 4hi to 2hi. after that it will flash when i push the 4hi, but immedietly go right back to 2hi, before the...

"frosty beverage"? Just say beer. Dont be gay

blks10

thanks for the info. You really think I am goin to walk in there and hit the guy? It was a joke

blks10

So the guy at best buy told me that I need to buy a $150 wiring harness for the $100 pioneer head unit i want because I have RDS in my truck. Is this true? Or do I need to go back there and lay him out?

blks10

Only if, you need to cut a hole in the floor if, their nut cert broke. Soak those puppies daily for a week with PB Blaster or Sea Foam Deep Creep before messing with them. They're, at least, 5 yrs old now and if, you get any snow at all, there is a good chance you will be fighting rust. Oh god. Rus...

The stock body mount bolts, do you need to pull the carpet up to get to them?

blks10

take off your gas tank and install a flux capacitor

Wow that is close. What size tires are you running? and do you have a BL?

Thank you, sir

Could someone tell me what the size of our sway bar is? Or is there a glove box code for it? There are two different kits at Energy Suspension. Thanks!

You da man. I see it says sway bar disconnects. I was searching for removable sway bar. Thanks!

blks10

I thought there was a thread from a do-it-yopurself removable sway bar? I did a search, and that is just turning up random things, and I didnt see it on the mod's section. Was it removed???

blks10

I haven't heard anything specific, but those off-road company type tires (Mickey Thompson, etc.) are more for purpose built trail rigs, so long-term durability and tread-wear is often poor. IMHO. You raise a good point, sir. I knew a few of my friends had them on their jeeps and whatnot, and they l...

Has anyone had/heard about the Dick Cepek Crushers???

blks10

You have pulled the TCCM behind the right kick panel?? If so and still troubles have you checked all fuses under the hood as well as the dash? I say this as it is unusual to have no lights at all operational on the dash switch. If you have done the above and are still having troubles then you have ...

Thanks for all the opinions, gentlemen. I am going to look into all of them! Thanks again, you guys are great help!!!

I replaced my encoder motor because I was having these symptoms: Lights would go out on the 4x4 switch Grounded out the 13th pin and it told me the encoder moter was bad I would pull to reset the TCCM After all this, I am still having the same problems. Still says the encoder motor is bad AFTER I re...

I am going to get new tires. 31" Off road tires, and I am looking to get opinions on tires that will be good on asphalt and in mud. These are for Crager 15x8 rims. Thanks!

blks10

OK. The rims are Cragar 15x8 with 5 in backspacing. Will those work? Thanks

blks10

I know I am digging up an old thread, but I was wondering who has done the 2" suspension lift? I have seen everyone saying not to do it, but people must still be doing it if they keep making products for it. Thanks

blks10

My buddy wants to give me his aftermarket ZR2 rims. My question is are all the measurments the same for our trucks and the ZR2s? Backspacing and all? Thanks

blks10

So I changed the thermostat, and I wondered.....where is the sensor that tells how hot the trucks water temp is? Anyone know?

blks10

I have heard there are codes to disable theftloc. I do not know mine, and i am pretty sure there is one. any way you can figure out what yours is?

blks10

I have heard rumors that if you replace your stock head unit with the same exact stock head unit, you have to have something in the truck reprogramed in order for it to accept the new head unit. does anyone know if this is true? Thanks

blks10

I had that problem on my 98 2.2 s10. Came from the truck misfiring, and destroyed the cat with to much fuel in the exhaust. a new TPS and she was all fixed

blks10

If you are going to check and see if the pan bolts are snug, just go ahead and take it off and replace it. Save yourself some time

blks10

what is dex 6?

blks10

I did a search and could not find this.

I am wondering what kind of fluid do we use for the transfer case. Thanks

blks10

I know a lot of you have replaced yours before, now it is time to replace mine. I was just wondering what brands you went with, why, and how they are working for you. Thanks a lot!!

blks10

I enjoy working for the state. I usually get what I need, equipment wise, and the benifits are awesome. If you have made it that far, that is good, but you still have a few months ahead of you

blks10

So, as far as connecting to my new speaker... The wide side is positive, and narrow side is negative. Judging by the adapter, this should be correct. Does this sound right? That sounds right. I am surprised that pioneer did not included those harnesses. When I replaced mine, they had those in the box

Twice I have replaced a bulb only to notice that it was not pointing right the next time I drove the truck at night. Both times I did not have the bulb seated it the socket good. If I remember right, there were three tabs and I only snagged two. Easy to fix once you figure it out. Have you replace ...

I got a head scratcher for you guys:

My driver side headlamp assembly. For some reason, my high beams are pointed at the same spot where my low beams are, so when i turn them on, it just shines right where the lows shine. anyone had a similer experiance?

Thanks

blks10

outstanding. thanks!

blks10

Thanks. One more quesiton:

1. Where is the encoder motor located? On the transfer case?

blks10

Hey guys. Just signed up to your sight. Quick qestion:

I was browsing through 4x4 problems(because i have one), and noticed that the term "encoder motor" was used a lot. Is this another term for transfer case motor? I ask because I can not find part info on a encoder motor.

thanks
