    OEM Style Tow Mirrors 06-07

    I used to be in the aftermarket auto parts business and sold mirrors. I used a set from Kool-Vue on my 2009 Silverado. They shook slightly. Muth supplied the heated glass to Kool-Vue in order to build them. Fast forward to 2013 I had an OEM set on my 2013 Silverado. They shook just as much. I...

    What is the number 1 thing you have done to make your truck tow better?

    With my 1500 I added helper springs but I’ve had this diesel for two years now and haven’t touched anything. For me, it tows just fine!! Ok, maybe adding the boat lol. 2013 Sierra SLE 2500HD Crew Cab

    Can I have these wheels polished

    It all depends on the detail and how bad they are. I got a quote to get 4 of my 18” Sierra wheels refinished. It was 1000 bucks to get them polished or 600 bucks to get cut, blasted, painted and a clear coat. 2013 Sierra SLE 2500HD Crew Cab

    Converting very old trailer hubs to modern bolt circle?

    I found something interesting on another forum about a guy rebuilding one. He talked about wheel adapters but not where he was getting them. Also, looking at his pictures you could easily build a new straight axle with tubing and weld in stub axles...

    Converting very old trailer hubs to modern bolt circle?

    You will need to know whether the axle is tapered where bearing size between the inner and outer is different. Some are 1 3/8 to 1 1/16 and some are 1 1/16 inner and outer. Standard hubs are 5 x 4.5. Also measure from the lip where inner race butts up against to the axle end. 2013 Sierra SLE...

    Buying Wheels

    Whatever you’re buying be it 17” 18” or 20” size, look at tire prices and selection in those sizes. That may help your decision. 2013 Sierra SLE 2500HD Crew Cab

    More tire pressure info please

    Not a 3500 but I run my 2500HD Duramax with 18” Michelin LTX AT2’s at 60 front and around 58 rear. I tried to go lower but the TPMS light comes on. I found out you can get it programmed to a lower PSI before light comes on. 2013 Sierra SLE 2500HD Crew Cab

    Lbz vs lml

    It’s a toss up between the two 15’s. HG’s done, still has CP4 pump or CP3 pump but still original HG’s. Definitely a lot for the 07. 2013 Sierra SLE 2500HD Crew Cab

    COOLANT IN AIRBOX WHILE TOWING 5TH WHEEL : TRK TOOK A SH!$

    Lost coolant, hard upper hose! Sounds like the classic example when my LML head gaskets went. I saved a video of overflow tank bubbling with cap removed. 2013 Sierra SLE 2500HD Crew Cab

    LML Transmission lines leaking

    The DRP kit I was looking at was from bcdiesel.ca. I may still go with that kit but the 1/2” version at $325.00 2013 Sierra SLE 2500HD Crew Cab

    LML Transmission lines leaking

    I saw that kit too but couldn’t find a Canadian supplier and freight is a killer. Amazon.ca only listed older models up to 2010. 2013 Sierra SLE 2500HD Crew Cab

    Well I guess OEM is the way to go if I don’t fix these old ones. Thanks to all who replied. 2013 Sierra SLE 2500HD Crew Cab
