Thanks man! Was that a direct fit one or what? Cause everywhere Ive been to around here wants to sell me a generic one and zip tie it in... No thank you!!

Ill consider the rr's if I can find a decent deal but for nearly $300 I dont see it making a huge enough diff to justify.

How do you like the throttle body? And did you use it in addition to an aftermarket exhaust and intake?

 

I believe I paid around 275 for mine when I bought them. And yes I do have an aftermarket exhaust and intake. I also have ceramic coated jba shorties. For me the biggest gains were with the rr and headers, though I would have bought the lt's if anybody had any.
Thinking about 4 56's gears next.

as for the tb the gains are nice but not a whole big diff.

 

Well took it in today to get my wheels on and leveled and aligned. Was told I need new Ball joints and inner and outer tie rods. Quoted $1150 for parts and labor. Holy hell they must think Im a ratard. Got all parts plus upper control arm and ball joint for 170 bucks. So looks like its time to do my least favorite thing in the world. Front suspension work!!

Anybody know any good DIY threads or guides? I searched and cant find crap.

 

Where did you take it for that quote? That is pretty steep.

You might want to try pavementsucks.com for DIYs. I have several friends who have used DIYs over there with good success.

 

Yes it is an aftermarket! Hayden is the one I bought, and is rated for towing up to 12,000lbs! I will never tow that much, but with these trannys you cannot keep them too cool!!! Mine does not "zip tie" but close, it has through the radiator fasteners. Mine was silver when I bought it, I painted it with high temp flat black paint so it blends in well. The kit comes with enough hose to connect and clamps. Here is a pic, not a good one but you can see itin the background. Look at the size of the tubes the fluid flows through compared to the factory cooler, no comparison these cool better

 

Good ole Les Schwabb trying to rip me off. I tried talking them down on the prices but they wouldnt budge. Just a bit ridiculous for a few hours work and they were charging 170 for the tie rods alone. Oh well.. this way I get to tinker and learn something new. Ive never done inner tie rods before without removing the rack so it will be a learning experience. Hopefully this takes care of the "slight" highway vibration Ive been getting.

Ill check out that website for sure.

SMKNRAM: I'm gonna take your advice and get the same one. Looks like a good cooler. I would have liked to stay OEM but **** they are expensive from the dealer!!!
