Headlight moisture. Possible to buy replacement gasket?
mctwist77 replied to mctwist77's topic in General SS
Yeah it sucks, damn cheap Chinese shit. So I bought a 12"x12" sheet of neoprene rubber, its 1/8" thick. I got it for $10. Im going to make new gaskets for the actual bulb sockets and silicone the outside of the housing. Hopefully this will solve the issue. I'll report back with my findings. -
Headlight moisture. Possible to buy replacement gasket?
mctwist77 replied to mctwist77's topic in General SS
Thanks for the tips guys. It sucks the fake chrome plating on the inside of the headlight is flaking because of the moisture. Luckily the ebay store I bought them from has AWESOME customer service and they keep sending me new ones. I have a fresh pair I'm going to put in. My plan is to silicone the outside like you guys said then I was thinking of buying just a sheet of rubber and cutting some gaskets myself. How think do you think I should order the rubber sheet. I was thinking either 1/8 inch or 1/2 inch. Thoughts? -
I bought some aftermarket headlights and parking lights off ebay. The headlights have been fine, no moisture but the parking lights keep getting moisture in them. The little rubber gasket between the bulb socket and the actual headlight seems worn. So whenever I put the socket in and twist, it's at best "snug" but not tight. My question is, is it possible to just buy the gasket or does anyone have any other fixes for this?

Miles? Mods?

Looks great man! Thanks! How's it handle with the drop?
-
Nice man! You have matching SS vehicles!

Thanks Muggs. Hey SSmooth do you have any current photos of your truck with the 22 reps and the 2/2 drop?
-
Johnny thanks for the info. I use my phone, I have a galaxy s5. And yeah it was really humid, after I wiped off the lens it got better. But you're right the sky was a bright grey. Thanks Jason. Trying to be like you

Thanks, it literally took all day and then when I went to drive it today it rained. Classic

I finally got to pamper my truck. I clay barred it, Scratch x'ed it, polished it then waxed it. I think it came out pretty good. Can't wait to do my 2/2 drop and get some 22 reps! I dont know why all my photos look so white.

I ment spindles, the ones that go in the front. I know I can buy then new but I was just seeing if anyone had a used pair laying around
-
Hmmm an eBay spindle... that sounds promising. I got the mod bug man

Regular Belltech Street Performance Shocks with a 2/2 drop
mctwist77 replied to mctwist77's topic in Suspension & Brakes
Ok,just to clarify. If I run the 2/2 belltech drop with OE height Street Performance Shocks I will be fine? I don't want the ride being too rough. I'm assuming the only negative effect will be that my shocks will wear quicker. Can anyone chime in? -
Alight guys so I have a little dilemma. My truck has 95k on it and the shocks are completely blown, the ride is horrible and they need to be replaced. I bought the OE height Belltech Street Performance Shocks and plan on putting them on. But I also plan on dropping the truck 2/2 either next summer or next fall once I get back from deployment and the truck is paid off. Question is, how will the ride quality be with the 2/2 drop and the OE height Belltech Street Performance Shocks, compared to the 2 inch lowering Belltech Street Performance Shocks. Thanks in advance!

Picture request! 22 reps on black SS and ride question
mctwist77 replied to mctwist77's topic in Rims and Rubber
Thanks man. Perfect -
Looking to see what 22 inch chrome reps would look on a stock height black ss. Also, I was wondering if anyone had issues with the 22 with rubbing after 2/2 drop. Any problems with ride quality with less sidewall on the tire? What tire size is recommended?

Hey guys it's been sold. Sorry I was slow to get back to everyone.

Selling K&N CAI its in excellent shape. I am selling it because it doesnt fit on my truck. I have a 2003 with the belt driven fan, this intake system will only fit trucks with the newer electric fans. PM me if your interested.
