    Old Predator tuner reset

    Man this brings back memories of my lb7's, pre efi live. Loaded that hot tune and took the truck for a spin, instantly addicted to diesels and haven't been without one since.

    Bought, wrecked, rebuilding a 2009 LMM

    That torsion bar crossmember is discontinued now, just fyi. So used is your only option if you need a replacement. I’ve had more luck with the air hammer than a puller.

    Bought, wrecked, rebuilding a 2009 LMM

    I bought a new abs pump on amazon warehouse deals for $90 earlier this year. Came in a beat up box, but it was brand new. You will need to salvage the mount for it tho, along with the mount on the rear of the frame that the two hard lines go to as they seem to be unavailable. I had to sandblast...

    Bought, wrecked, rebuilding a 2009 LMM

    I wasn’t able to find the rear brake lines or the ones on the axle for an LMM with 4 channel abs earlier this year. Luckily all but one on my parts truck were mint. 00-07 also had sae hardware. 07.5+ went metric. I ended up using some nicopp line to make the one running to the front passenger...

    Building front end

    I mixed it up. Used a PPE Centerlink with OE Style Kryptonite tie rods, kryptonite idler and pitman arms, steersmarts idler with kryptonites weld in brace, and a PSC steering gear. Steering is tight! Absolutely zero regrets, wish I had done this sooner.

    Frame Differences?

    If you really need one that badly, I probably have one. Where are you located? I'll be heading west to pick up another LMM this weekend.

    Frame Differences?

    I tried to get a clean one from them, but their definition of clean vs mine differs drastically. I ended up buying couple trucks from salvage auction for parts, which is going to end up pushing me over the edge into building a duraburb too.

    Frame Differences?

    I sandblasted and epoxy coated my frame earlier this year. Ordered a case of this to put over the epoxy, but haven’t done it yet. It works great on freshening up older frames that have the dried out coating after scraping off the loose crap.

    Frame Differences?

    You’re welcome.

    Frame Differences?

    Cheap oven cleaner takes that coating right off. On another note, since you washed the loose stuff off you could just order the factory frame wax called nox rust from daubert chemical, spray it and get it back on the road.

    Frame Differences?

    Move bumper makes it even easier. Cut off the 01-07 mount entirely and make that new frame horn look like the lmm one. The LMM mounts bolt on and come as a kit with everything needed.

    Frame Differences?

    That sums up pretty much all the differences. Don't worry much about the year, find the cleanest one you can and run with it.

    Head gasket build

    The only time I saw 25k psi at idle is when one of the wires between the ecm and fpr broke. If communication is lost the fpr defaults to max pressure from my understanding. Just fyi, incase you get it all back together and see the same issue.

    Just picked up my first diesel....lbz from a buddies dad Need help with efi live

    I have unlocked lbz tunes from a long long time ago in a galaxy far away from a well known tuner who had their own 3 letter acronym. But basically what you just responded is what’s wrong with car culture these days. If we’re all a bunch of scared shits unwilling to help the noobs and keep it...

    Autocals are a waste of money. Find a flash scan and post your base tune. I'll send ya something.

    LML total delete

    Point is they shouldn't need to be deleted or need a cp3 conversion to be made reliable. Older stuff was not designed with emissions as a priority and will undoubtedly be more reliable and last longer with relatively minimal maintenance compared to lml trucks.

    LML total delete

    In my opinion/experience, yes they are more reliable. Unfortunately I'm well ver$ed in all of the generations of duramax motors and their equipment with all the repairs and rebuilds over the years. All 3 of my lml's were crap. One was plagued with emissions issues, solved that and then promptly...
