    LML Starter grind

    Our '11 LML has ground the starter every so often and is getting more frequent. Going to replace the starter and flywheel. Can I use one from an LBZ? I have the flywheel left over from another project. The truck is all stock and has 115k on it.

    Dual Cp3 rail fitting

    I have a dual cp3 kit that I have pieced together over the last couple years and it has a braided supply line, from Industrial if I remember correctly. I think it might be for an lly or lb7 because the fitting looks to be for the front of the rail, because it's too small for the rear. Is...

    Merchant push rods

    Are these pushrods correct? The ends are not the same size as the stock ones. They are the same length and said 01-10 duramax on the box, but I want to be sure they are right before I put them in.

    BMF/SOTA Off-road wheels

    I finally got the wheels I have been wanting for a while. 20x9 BMF novakanes. When they arrived they were in fact the new name of SOTA Off-road. No big deal and put them on. Two weeks later I lost a center cap after replacing a rear caliper, must not have snapped it in all the way. Go to...

    Inside the zf6

    I've noticed very little zf6 talk on here lately. After a few hours of plowing snow for the first time I lost the synchro for 2nd. Not wanting to hurt anything else I yanked the transmission that night. Found a pdf service manual online very easily and dug in. I have none of the...

    My lmm has 130k miles with roughly 10 hooks, lots of burnouts and general hard abuse. I hopped last weekend and broke the drivers side axle. Got a used one with 90k on it. Pulled the cover and found some shavings and 2 very small chunks about the size of a pencil led. I put 4 1/2 quarts of...

    Arrival blue rclb zf6

    Since my lmm has been more play than work, I picked up this zf6 to use as a farm truck from an auction site where we bought some skid steers last year. Zf's have always interested me and being arrival blue seemed sort of rare. It's a little beat up but only has 56k miles. With some...
