    Camber issues

    In my opinion, keep the UCA's when you get the bags. Get the alignment at your driving ride height/stockish height and be done. If you can get your alignment in spec at close to stock ride height, call it good. At any height lower or higher, your going to be out of spec. There is no way to keep...

    Camber issues

    I am no suspension expert, but from the pictures you look like you are pretty low with your ride height. Your UCA are pointed upward unless its the angle of the pictures. Im going to say that the Dmax UCA's are the problem and you are too low for them. You did not have issues until you made the...

    Can you take a pic of both cams on driver or passenger side?

    Camber issues

    I have always used these specs and had no problems. Caster, +2.0 to +4.5 degrees with both sides within ½ degree of one another. Camber, 0 to + .25 degrees. Toe, 1/16” to 1/8” toe in.

    Speaker question

    Check to see if you need an adapter for the rear speakers. Like 1FastBrick said, Crunchfield will be your friend.

    $100 if you can diagnose this whining sound... SERIOUS OFFER

    From my experience when the hydro boost starts to go bad, they will leak from the bottom or start leaking in the cab where the shaft connects at the brake pedal. I replaced mine with an LML hydro boost and it was a good upgrade for my LBZ.

    I never needed to replace my fan pulley. I just replaced my head gaskets and checked it was still good. No play. I don't think you have anything to worry about. Just go over the stuff we mentioned and flush the power steering.

    I would check all you pullies and fan pulley. Also check the belt. I usually replace the belt and all pullies / belt tensioner at about 100k interval's. My fan pulley is still original at 230k miles and it is still good. Do a power steering flush and go from there. I flush my power steering...

    Back in an LBZ.... EFI live issue / question

    I also got a Northern Radiator through Brad. Fit and finish is great. No problems with the installation. It comes very well packed.

    Popped the heater core connector today

    I would jut get the adapter's, but that's just me. Replace both and replace the hose too. The old hose will be stretched out at the connection. If you every have to take them off again, you would most likely have a hard time getting the hose off of the heater core. Possibly damage the heater...

    Just a heads up. Dmaxstore sells stuff on ebay. You can get the heater core fittings there for cheaper than ordering from the website. At least that is what I did at the time. The shipping at Dmaxstore is expensive.

    Popped the heater core connector today

    I had the Dorman one and it was a pain to get off for some reason when I just did my HG recently. I damaged the metal quick connect locking tab when I finally got it off. I threw it in the trash and replaced it with the Dmaxstore one. In my opinion, it is made better and easier to get off.

    Coolant leak from valley

    Copy. I had to relook at the picture. Did you check the EGR coolant hose from thermostat to egr? I just did my head gaskets and the only places that have coolant on top of the engine are the thermostat, turbo coolant lines, cooling hose going to the radiator. Not much else. Did you check the...

    What about the coolant line on the other side of the turbo?

    P/N for axle nut socket? Lb7 2500

    I have read the performance tool w1270 works. You just have to grind the edges of the points. I bought the tool but have not tried it yet. Its cheap.

    My 7 is undergoing surgery….

    I have the same steps but in stainless. I like them and they don't hang down too far. I had N-fabs and these are much better.
