    What needs to be done to put aftermarket exhaust on

    This is what I have. It's for aesthetics only really but it looks 10X better with a nice stainless tip tucked under there. A full exhaust is a whole different ball of wax.

    LML Steering play 11-1 Gearbox wore out?

    I found this TSB. Sounds similar to what Dave was talking about. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2016/SB-10083856-5448.pdf

    LML Steering play 11-1 Gearbox wore out?

    I'm going to do what Dave suggested and go from there. My LMM had 130k on it if I recall and that truck seen track time, dirt and pavement but i recall it handled the road just fine even with 20x10s.

    LML Steering play 11-1 Gearbox wore out?

    Main question: Anyone ever heard of needing to replace steering box on LML/L5P trucks with a little miles on them? My truck: 94k miles (easy miles mind you) Cognito Pisk Fresh alignment and new 325/60/20 tires on stock wheels Alignment specs: .9 Positive Camber both sides (I think this is...

    Lower Spring Rate Torsion Bar options - LML

    Want to give you all an update who may be waiting to hear. I received both sets of T-Bars pretty quickly, I did the ReadyLift control arm install myself and marked the cam bolts before removal. After I got those on and new keys i've got it just shy of level. Here's the kicker... I decided to...

    Lower Spring Rate Torsion Bar options - LML

    Just secured a set of 4800 and 4400lb bars off 0 mile trucks. It may take me a few weeks but I will update once I try them all out.

    Lower Spring Rate Torsion Bar options - LML

    I just found some off a 16 High country ccsb Gasser (4800lbs) truck still has window sticker so i think it may have fallen off the transport truck (0 miles) and they also have an ecsb that looks very clean with the 4400lb springs. I have inquired about all 4 for a deal. We shall see.

    Lower Spring Rate Torsion Bar options - LML

    Hey Chevy1925, I agree and I am terrible at splitting hairs. I will obsess over an exhaust tip angle for days until its "just right". I'm willing to give it a try if I can find some bars used out of a part-out truck. If anything, for others down the line thinking of an alternative. It may take...

    Lower Spring Rate Torsion Bar options - LML

    Correct, however I am running stock keys currently. By taking an aftermarket key which is indexed differently and using a lower spring rate torsion bar it would appear to me you can get some lift by using the aftermarket key and the spring rate will still be a tad less than what it was prior...

    Lower Spring Rate Torsion Bar options - LML

    Thanks Bdsankey, My goal would be to use aftermarket keys to go up but a lower spring rate essentially canceling out the change in geometry. My previous truck had a Cognito 4in kit on it turned down with no blocks in the rear for race purposes.. It did not ride well after all said and done...

    325/60/20 Toyo AT3 Fit Stock LML Duramax

    I made the title simple so people searching in the future can find the photos to get an idea what this tire and size look like on the 2015-2019 trucks. 325/60/20 Toyo AT3s on stock 20X8.5 wheels. How I made them fit: Turned stock keys up (been that way since day 1) Trimmed front valance...

    Lower Spring Rate Torsion Bar options - LML

    As the title states I am rolling around the idea of a lower spring rate in my truck. The BDS Coilover kit is what got me started down this rabbit hole and it appears 2011-2014 trucks came with 5 different options (See attached photo). My CCSB 4x4 has the 5200lb gross weight AAF & AAG springs...

    Charging Tilt trailer battery while driving (Parallel quick connect?)

    Funny you mention that. I have an old yellow top optima I picked up at Advance about 15yrs ago when I worked there and it lasted FOREVER. I think my dad still has it around somewhere. When you get a good one its good.. I've been through two Autocrap batteries on my Trans Am since just sitting in...
