    I do like the sounds of a Cadillac like ride, but what did you use for the front? And I'm guessing PCK and a diff drop? Did you keep OEM Cv's or switch to extended?

    Pandora's Box

    Would like to keep this around $1000ish so I can still do other things. But I also like to say if you're going to do it, do it right the first time. I don't mind wrenching and doing it myself. I just want some kind of solid direction without skimping. I still have my bushings I have laying...

    So lets say with Bilsteins front and back and going with ome rear spring would I need to pick up a pck in the process? I would like to avoid the sag in the rear when having my cooler and gear in there if at all possible but still have a comfortable suspension, I know asking alot.

    Yeah I had to give her a name after everything I have going on (not just talking about things with the rig but other stuff).

    Pandora's Box

    So, I want to change my suspension a little and looking for advice on which way to go. I have a stock height 97 Limited and with no aftermarket bumpers sitting on 16" steelies, and plan to swith from a 265/75 to maybe a 235 or 255 come spring. Looking at either Eibach or Dobison (Teal color is...

    What else should I be doing here?

    When looking through the records my grandfather kept I saw that he replaced the radiator at 75k and then again at 152k, seems he stayed on top of things pretty well. He was also very ocd about his vehicles and how they were kept and maintained.

    My pick and pull near me gets what seems to be 3-4 3rd gens every month almost. I'll have to ride down there and see if they have any 01 or 02's in the yard. Thank you!

    I ordered the breathers too when I ordered the drain and fill bolts and crush washers and all. Just easier to do it while I'm replacing everything else. From what I can tell from all his records from the time he had it was he used oem for majority of it all.

    What else should I be doing here?

    I'll most likely lean towards replacing them so my kids could have heat. Yeah it's not to terrible in DE with the snow, salt and all. There surface rust underneath that I'm going to wire wheel this fall and treat with por-15 before applying a top coat. Seemed to work really well on my 7.3 before...

    What else should I be doing here?

    I'll have to look and see. Can i replace the line or does everyone just remove and plug?

    What else should I be doing here?

    Yeah, I plan on keeping this thing going forever. It was my grandfathers since 97 and when he passed I bought it off my grandmother to keep it for sentimental purposes for all the good times we had in it when I was growing up. I want to keep it rolling and continue the good times with my kids in...

    What else should I be doing here?

    I'll put them on the list, thank you. Yeah sorry meant to mention transmission and transfer case are in with the front and rear diff. Sometimes I don't type as fast as my brain thinks at times. I did get new crush washers and new drain and fill bolts. But I didn't get hex bolts for the front, so...

    Yeah watching your videos has helped me a lot in preparation for what I plan on doing here soon. I really do appreciate you putting those videos out, it has helped me tremendously

    What else should I be doing here?

    Yeah I think I'm just going to go with energy bushings throughout except in the arms and use whiteline there is the plan. But I didn't think of the rear not sure why, but will add it to my list. My vacuum lines looked decent when I was looking under the hood yesterday figuring out a buzzing...
