I am familar with this shop. A few friends have used Meadowlands to install a suspension lift. I have heard only positives about their service.
And I think the last time I was talking with a manager there, he said his wife has a crew...

some of us do our own work to save some $$

No airbag deploy?

Hey Conman I'll rep NJ, you can rep NY.

HenryJ, good idea:
I'm definetly in for a group purchase if this lift ever comes to market.

kwalsh

General Motors Corp. said that it would recall more than 4 million pickup trucks to replace tailgate support cables that may corrode and fracture.

GM said its recall covers Chevrolet Silverados and GMC Sierras from the 2000 to 2004 model years.

This weekend I over torqued a bolt and broke it. :x :x The bolt is on my quad, a Honda 400EX. Now I have to drill it out. This is going to be a challenge. The broken piece of bolt is about 5mm in diameter, 1cm in length and about 4 inches inside the engine block. Can anybody provide some input on th...

Bilsteins.

Superlift is even using them as their shock of choice for their lifts.

kwalsh

I can't find the forum on superlift's website. Recently they redid the site....looks like they removed the forum.
I know there are a few of us who asked about a S-10 non ZR-2 lift on it.

Yes they do, they're friggin horrible.
I'm glad I put RainX on.

How have the Bosch Micro Edge Excels been working?

I wonder if it has something to do with these GM cluth packs.
I need to get ahold of this guy and ask him what trannys they tested with. I don't remember.
Since you had bad luck with the synth ATF,
I'll be keeping a close eye for the slightest change in color.

kwalsh

sythetic has come a long way in the past few years. A friend of mine worked for Castrol & Mobil on synthetic oil & ATF.
The viscosity and thermal breakdown properties of the synths outperfrom
traditional fluids.

Syth being too viscous...it can't be in order to meet the SAE grades.

kwalsh

IMO, I would change the tranny fluid and filter. The properties of ATF are just too important to be tested using the taste and smell method. ATF that has lost it's ability to do its stuff won't show immediate signs of age. I don't think a flush would hurt the tranny, as long as the system used doesn...

Hobie,

What kind of rims did you have & what were the specs?

thanks

kwalsh

I feel like a little kid on Christmas morning.
I just bought the PA#192 body lift.
I can't wait too install it.

kwalsh

from my local paper, 2/19/04 "...GM has been running one shift in Linden for the past few years. Lower consumer demand for the pickups and SUVs built there led to the cutback, Flores said. The company will produce about 215 vehicles per day at the plant. GM builds midsize pickups and midsize sport u...

my '88 Blazer is just about ready to blow,

kwalsh

Is it easy to drain the transmission fluid and change the filter yourself? Or roughly how much would it cost to have done? it's not hard at all. save yourself the $$ and do it yourself. the only thing annoying is that some of the bolts on the pan are a bit of a pain to get at. but before you do the...

I reconnected the vaccum tube to the actuator.
Living in Pa with this cold spell we've been having in the East.....i kinda like the hot feet feature

kwalsh

go to kelley blue book, www.kbb.com, and put your zip code in.
be sure to check off all other features that the truck has.

In NJ this truck at a dealer goes for around $21~$22

a group buy is in place at

for $279.95 + $10.00(shipping)

I'm laying down the $$

this is an awesome price

kwalsh

for those with this counter balance problem....did the noise start out
as a tapping sound? something that would resemble the sound
of an engine with a bad plug, ya know that pinging sound,
but much softer?

kwalsh

was this rattle sound a tapping sound, something like how an engine
with a bad plug would tap loud but just much softer

I never asked them. The body lift is so easy I'm going to do it.

kwalsh

Has anybody, that has suspension lifted the CC, switched out the stock
for aftermarket?

kwalsh

I'm planning on doing the body lift myself. If I don't do the suspension by myself, I'm going to have these guys do it for me. They're right down the street from Raceway Park in my hometown, Monroe Twp. NJ: http://www.kodiakcustoms.com/index.html these guys are a little farther from Philly, located ...

Yesterday I spent way too much time changing the transmission fluid & filter. GM has put the shift linkage bracket onto the tranny pan. This makes taking the pan off even more of a pain in the ass. :x , than my '88 S10. There isn't much room to get a wrench up there, forget about a socket. It ain't ...

kwalsh

the front speakers require a speaker bracket, which are included when you purchase through Crutchfield & you have to drill out the rivets
that hold the factory speaker bracket in

kwalsh

If you order through CRUTCHFIELD, they will include the mounting kit and
wiring harness for free...if they have it. i've ordered from them for my '88 S-10 Blazer & they had everything I needed.

If I left a mag light in container in the cargo box of my truck...
the container would be stolen and then the mag light would be

I apologize for the ignorance here:
What do you mean by oiling holes?
I changed the rear diff gasket/gear oil and I didn't notice any holes
being blocked by the new gasket.

kwalsh

got my truck back from the dealer. the motor was bad. they replaced it. In the process of changing the motor they managed to get some sort of clear substance on the window. When I cleaned the interior of the window the paper towel I used got ripped up and there were pieces of it left on the window. ...

kwalsh

before the window motor died I had the same problem with the
window not going all the way up. Once it happened on the interstate,
in the rain.

A few times it made that 'pop' too.
Tomorrow the dealer will replace the motor.

kwalsh

My driver side window has started to hesitate on its up & down travel.
At first I thought the switch is going, but I think it's the motor due to the
hesitation in travel.

I'm bringing it in & having the warranty do its stuff.

kwalsh

thanks again Henry

Henry,

Will the quad beam head light mod you did work on Crews with

Lifting with either TM, TS or SuperLift will soon be reality for my CC.

I'm ready to get a tig and construct a roll bar. My questions...

1. has anbody constructed an interior roll bar,

2. has anbody purchased or constructed a roll bar for the bed?

thanks.
