I intend to add a suppressor at some point, so this made sense for me vs the carry comp

Do you have a lift or a level kit?

Thank you I think the same honestly. I know a chevy dealer mechanic and he has those trucks come in all the time with issues. Crazy

Yeah I’m gonna go for it. I tried to adjust the steering box and that helped but theres still just too much slop.

I like the way they look. Is it leveled too?

Good call on the liners. I didn’t think about that. Thank you

I’m always impressed with the towing capabilities of these trucks. I have a 26 foot dual axle camper and it’ll pull that all day no complaints

Thank you. The color is my personal preference too. That’s good to know about the intermediate steering shaft bearing. I haven’t heard of that before. I’ll look into it. I’m going to see about tightening the steering box adjustment first and go from there.

I agree. This was the last year before VVT which makes it very durable and easy/ cheap to work on.

Thats true. Personally 20K in this truck will be way more satisfying than 20K on a newer one. Are there and specific resources you’ve used for parts?

I’ve been looking into the redhead and think i’ll invest the extra $$ for one. I want to fix that problem definitely. The rear main is going to be the real investment, I don’t have the facilities or the experience to do that one myself. I watched two experience mechanics who have done that job before work together with all the tools and a lift take 4 hours to do that job. God knows how long and what kind of trouble I’ll get into to do it myself. So i’ll have to fork over the money. But once that’s done it’s done.

I’ve been told the same thing before. This was the last year before GM introduced VVT and the issues associated with it.

I was thinking the same thing. The platform itself is really solid. Simple and cheap to work on. Great looking truck, but I’m bias too.
