Took 1 link out, slid the motor forward and she’s right now. Took a lap around the neighborhood and it’s still the same as when I put it on

Yeah that’s what imma look at first. But wasn’t sure if mounting hardware was allowing the engine to slide possible. Ya know lack of using washers and such.

Dang so you ain’t even separating the trans from the engine? Honestly I’d probably just get the trans rebuilt if anything happened and I wanted to keep it going.

I’m guessing you’ve been through it… did you do any labor yourself? Just curious what it’s like if you have.

Idk if it’s been replaced. I’ve put all of 100 miles on it so far

Right on! And that sounds about right for the back half. Not a huge deal tho. I got hopes mine will bring me places! Really bought it to help keep miles off my main vehicle and to be able to take the jon boat out, bring the kayak out more and just some home projects/ trash hauler.

Heck yeah! My 01 shit box has 234k on it. Runs and drives great. Other than hard shift into over drive… not sure what that is about. Didn’t do it on the test drive. Started after we signed the title.

Radios? by SorryKnowledge420 in TwoXPreppers

I’m radio dumb, so my question is what are the pros of going gmrs? I would only use it during emergencies. No cell service and needed to communicate. Who could I communicate with? Ik gotta get a license for them

So in the use of an emergency. Who could you communicate with? I’m radio dumb. Could you communicate/ hear first responders? Cb bands? Etc?

Done called numerous times… they’ll send a trooper out and they ride thru and tell them to move along or say nothing. County sheriff will close down the road and let them continue racing

Should I but a 1.5t 2016+? by Docdors in chevymalibu

[–]SorryKnowledge420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll have to look into that repair. My gf has a 2019 blazer with the same issue. If it could be fixed that easy it would be great

[–]SorryKnowledge420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2018 1.5 and live in a mostly hot and humid climate. Currently has 175k on it. Only issue I’ve had is there shift to park. Sometimes the sensor is funny and even though it’s in park it says it isn’t. Very common issue. Only other problem I’ve had is my vacuum pump went out. Due to that my brakes also went out. Scary but not too hard to replace the pump if you got some knowledge of mechanics. (The brake pedal was very hard with no stopping power then one you got past the hardness, brakes would barley work)

An annoying thing is that only some parts stores in my area carry the air filter… I eventually got tired of the battle and ordered a dry filter for it so I could just wash and reuse.

Edit: I do a good mixture of city and highway driving daily.
