  1. Seriosuly, no one will post these? I know this forum is slow but come on.
  2. So can anyone just post the part numbers please? I know people on this site have these shocks....
  3. Can anyone tell me the correct part numbers for the Belltech Street Performance Shocks for a stock ride height 2003 Silverado SS AWD? I've been googling for an hour and it feels like I am going in circles. I found retailer sites with them but the have different specs and don't mention if they are for stock vehicles or dropped vehicles. Want to orrder the correct shocks the first time. Thanks guys....
  4. Slightly less than $200 on SAE. But then I have to get it painted and installed. Grrrr.
  5. Driver side. The hole is at the front of the cladding, front of the bed, right behind the cab at the bottom.
  6. Off topic, but what wheels do you have and how difficult was it to install your fog lights? Your truck looks great.
  7. The arm rest on my driver side seat is all cracked on the top, I want to remove it and go to a junk yard and find another. How do i get this thing off?
  8. Awhile back I ran over something on the freeway by accident. Whatever it was it bounced up and hit the rear quarter panel at the bottom in front of the rear wheel, put a nice baseball size hole in the cladding. Anyone know where I can buy this particular piece of body cladding?
  9. Truck is a 2003 Silverado SS, 102,000 miles Today I go run a quick errand, truck is fine on the way there, I go to leave , right away as I start it the CEL comes on and it goes into reduced power mode. I limp it home. I park it ans shu it off. I go back out to mess with, start it up and it is no longer in reduced power mode but the CEL is still on. From her eon out the CEL is only on a few of the times I start it, and not on at all other times. My brother comes by with a scanner, here are the codes: P2135 Throttle/Pedal Position sensor/Switch "A"/"B" Voltage P0120 Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor A circuit I posted on another board and I am a little confused as to what I am, being told. They are in agreement that it is the TPS sensor, but I am not clear if I can just replace the sensor or if I have to replace the whole throttle body unit. I thought I'd post on here and let ya'll give me your opinions. Money is kinda tight so I don't want to be buying a bunch of crap that isn't needed. I've also been reading around and heard that sometimes wiring breaks or comes loose and can cause these codes to be thrown. And like I said the symptoms are intermittent, although it was only in reduced power mode once. My brother cleared the codes and drove it around the block and they didn't come back, but that was only a short trip. \What do you guys think?
  10. I want to go just to see Junior Miller spin out Brett Myers. That would make the trip totally worth it.
  11. Why are show trucks so incredibly tacky? Paint jobs are always 8 bright colors, witha guady interior and chrome steering wheel. Can you get anymore trashy?
  12. If there is no power to the fuel pump they won't be going anywhere.
  13. I've seen you post this before. It is highly unlikely a tow truck would be used to steal your truck. While it is certainly possible, and does happen, it is very rare compared to someone just walking up and hotwiring your ride. Tow trucks are big and loud, they attract attention, and are expensive to obtain. Putting ina killswitch or otherwise disabling your vehicle will make it nearly impossible to steal your vehicle. Time is a thiefs enemy. The more time it takes him to get his target started, the more time there is for him to be discovered. If he has to try and search for a kill switch, or reconnect the battery, or find out if a fuse has been removed, it all draws out the process and frsutrates the thief. In most cases he will give up after a minute or two and move on to the next chevy truck, as there are millions out there and most unsecured beyond a locked door. IN conclusion, yes, if they want it, they will get it, but most of the time they will not 'spare no expense' to get your truck, when they are probably 10 more chevys parked on the enxt street that can be had in 45 seconds.
  14. My brother just told me to start saving my money for hubs as the miles add up (85,000 and counting) They just had to replace the driver side front hub on my dads 2006 2500HD Silverado, at 105,000 miles. They replaced my brothers front driver hub on his '01 Silverado Ext. cab v6 at 104,000. Is this a very common thing to happen on on these trucks? Is there some maintence that can be done short of replacing them or they just naturally wear out at a certain point? They aren't super expensive but at $180 dollars each from the auto parts store they aren't cheap either. Not experiencing any symptoms yet, and hopefully not soon.
  15. I guess it's just me, i don't see why people are still removing cats, the modern ones are no where close to being the power robbing bricks of the 70's. I think the only big difference you'll notice in removing them is the sound. I put in hi flos when I got my Longtubes, really just to replace them since the stockers had 50,000 miles I might as well. Also helps the environment, not that a lot of gear heads care anyways......
