    LML Hesitation/Driveline Dead Space

    I agree. It's not the dead pedal issue a lot of people mention. Has anyone else experienced this and have any insight as far as trouble shooting a fix?

    LML Hesitation/Driveline Dead Space

    I’ll try to keep this as short as possible and still explain the situation but I am looking for some troubleshooting help for my 2016 LML. For a while now I have occasionally had moments where I would notice a dead zone in the throttle most noticeably found in 1st gear starting from a stop where...

    Caster still off after Alignment. Is this normal?

    Just trying to figure out if the numbers are good or worth calling them up saying they need to take another look. I don’t care to spend another $100+ for a second alignment at either a second shop or the original place it was aligned if I were to take it in when it’s as good as it can get.

    Caster still off after Alignment. Is this normal?

    Needed new tires so upgraded the shocks at the same time with the stage 3 Kryptonite leveling kit (UCA, keys, shocks) plus the CCM diff drop spacers. Tire size went from a 275/65/18 to 285/75/18 (snow tires to mud terrains). Expected more sway in the corners due to taller sidewall and slightly...

    Are aftermarket leveling kits REALLY worth it?

    I have a 2016 Silverado 2500HD LML. It's the Z71 midnight edition which sounds like it may play into the shock selection. In previous trucks (LMM) I ran the full 4" lift from Tough Country to keep the CV's flat and the kit was great but not necessary for this truck. I hate the rake but it...

    Hoping this isn't a Transmission Issue

    I've heard of the infamous LML dead pedal situation and I haven't really experienced the symptoms that are most commonly explained with this...the lag when suddenly increasing throttle to pass a vehicle or merge onto freeway etc. I do have a FASS lift pump that from the sounds of it helps that...

    Troubleshooting Low coolant on 2016 LML

    I first had the "low coolant" message pop up on a trip to Colorado from MI about a month and a half ago. The goal was to just drive the truck out there but my friends 6.0 broke down and I had the only other truck capable of towing the 29' camper through the mountain passes to get to the...

    Help on tires

    Going to need new tires on the 2016 2500hd LML this spring. Doing appropriate research before hand. Live in northern Michigan and will run these year round so my goal is always an aggressive look but I need the good road manners and very good traction on snow and ice. I’ve previously had the...

    Seat covers for lml

    Going on an elk hunt soon and I’d like to get a set of seat covers for the front to protect from dirt sweat or whatever. I’ve always had leather previously and that’s always been easy to clean but don’t want the cloth to get in rough shape too quickly. Looking for something that’s form fitting...

    Hot Shot Secret vs Optilube

    I’ve burned through my gallon of Optilube XPD. I bought that based on good reviews here. I use additive in every tank due to having an LML still running the CP4. I do have the fuel system saver installed and a FASS lift pump but still like the added piece of mind of a good additive. Both the...

    Ride quality vs larger tires

    “What size tires can I fit on my truck?” Has to be one of the most common questions asked on these forums yet after searching around I wasn’t able to find what I needed so here I am making yet another post about it. Answers and opinions would be great or if one of you guys knows place to find...

    Variances in Allison internal filters

    Going to drop the pan to install the dummy solenoid and converting over to transynd fluid and while I’m doing that of course I’ll do new filters. Initially ordered a filter kit with the internal lock from a reputable aftermarket diesel transmission manufacturer. The external filter was genuine...

    New gen FASS pumps: 100 vs 165

    I am fairly new to the demand flow technology in the AD pumps mentioned above. Is this supposed to aid in reducing or eliminating the 1/4-1/8 tank issue? And how effective is the new draw tube with the FASS in solving this problem? This is my main concern. I know otherwise these are both good...

    New gen FASS pumps: 100 vs 165

    Brad does this scenario of Airdog having an advantage over the FASS on the LMLs still apply when comparing AD to the newer LML specific FASS pumps? I heard their newer kits when selected for the proper year truck (I have a 16) have the larger draw tube that eliminate 1/4 tank or 1/8 tank issue...

    New gen FASS pumps: 100 vs 165

    I do understand the flow specs yes. What I don’t necessarily have the answers to is any ill effects of circulating too much fuel due to it not being needed/used. Possibly excessive recirculating resulting in unnecessary heating of the fuel or additional air being introduced to the fuel? Possibly...

    New gen FASS pumps: 100 vs 165

    We’ve all seen the FASS vs Airdog topics or even the comparisons within the same company like the FASS 95 vs 100, but I’ve seen very little talk or comparison between the newer gen FASS lift pumps. I want to get some insight on preference or recommendation between the FASS 100 and 165. I have a...

    EGT Probe fitting too deep?

    Drilled and tapped my manifold for my EGT probe last night and may have gone a touch too deep on the NPT tap. It can’t be more than an 1/8”-1/16” past flush into the manifold. I figure it was about flush before tightening and now just past. Is this an issue? Is it worth trying to grind down the...
