  1. Clay bar it again and give her a nice healthy coat of a quality wax.....
  2. Agreed, I thought of letting her go when we were house shopping last year for extra money, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. She has her very own garage now, the house we bought was owned by a drag racer and auto body tech. Every time I start her up, she puts a smile on my face. So what if I only put 1100 miles on her in the last year, that just means she is that much cleaner! I can tell you for certain that she isn't going anywhere. Anyone who is like me, and I know several of you, know it is a labor of love. These trucks are deep rooted in our souls for some reason, they are a part of us. It makes me happy when I hear someone say they have no intentions of selling their SS. I know I'm not alone.... Sorry to see her go Shuan
  3. *Topic moved to correct section*
  4. Tow Haul mode modifies shift points to points of peak torque in each gear if I recall correctly. Dave I just PMed you.....
  5. There isn't a seal at that location, the axle tube is press fit into the center section and plug welded. Welding it completely may distort the tube causing further issues. The simplest solution may be to clean the joint up with a wire brush and some brake cleaner, then seal it with some black RTV......

  7. Dave, I'm gonna PM you my phone number, let's shoot the breeze about this stuff this week....
  8. Any history of accidents or axle damage in the rear of the truck?
  9. As we all know, today marks the 13th anniversary of the attacks on our nation. Today I ask all my fellow members here on SSS.com to take a moment of silence to reflect on our 3,093 fellow Americans who lost their lives that horrific day over one decade ago, those who have lost their lives to disease since, and to reflect on our troops for all they have sacrificed to keep the United States safe from terrorism. Let's keep our troops in our prayers and let's never forget September 11, 2001. In Memory: Lieutenant John P. Napolitano FDNY Rescue Co. 2 -Ex-Chief & Commissioner Lakeland FD Firefighter William J. Mahoney Jr. FDNY Rescue Co. 4 -Firefighter Lakeland FD Engine Co. 5 Firefighter Peter Brennan FDNY Squad Co. 288 -Firefighter Lakeland FD Engine Co. 4 Police Officer Glen K. Pettit NYPD Video Unit -Firefighter Lakeland FD Engine Co. 5 Captain James Amato FDNY Squad Co. 1 -Firefighter Lakeland FD Truck Co. 3 FDNY "343", Brothers in Battle Rest in Peace Brothers
  10. You still running the stock MAF just out of curiosity?

  12. A standard rebuild on a RWD 4L65E is gonna run you $1500-$1800 with labor and a reman TC.....
  13. No crank relearn here after the cam swap...
  14. I had a California Car Covers Extreme Weave on my SSS a few winters ago and my paint suffered severely, paint was marred all over. Now at least she has a garage to sleep in.....
  15. Doesn't look good for me John, my father in law is finally supposed to be helping me tile the bathroom I gutted 8 months ago, it's apparently the only weekend he was free....
  16. Mobil 1 75w-90 already has the friction modifiers right from the get go, no additive needed.
  17. There was a member here who will remain unnamed who went with ARH 1-7/8" LT's and a full dual 3" exhaust and lost 3/10 of a second in the 1/4 mile....
  18. Again, unless you ate going FI or big cubes, 1-7/8" primaries are over kill. An LQ9 with a mild cam will lose torque on the low end. Add Dynatech to your list also.....
  19. 1-7/8" primaries are over kill with the current mods in your sig, 1-3/4" primaries would be plenty. What are your future goals? This will dictate your choice also...
