as a retired appraiser, for a major insurance carrier, and also having worked as a writer in big time shops back east, and a school trained mechanic...I have one thing to say...you're NUTS!!!

in or out...just promise this "Old fart" not to put those damn extra wide wheels on that stick out like Rosie O'Donell's love-handles....man I hate those... :p

it's a brake-moan module...

are you running any type of throttle control device, like a Pedal Commander etc.?

like others have said...ANYTHING mechanical can detonate. If I were you...I would be thanking the good lord sweet baby Jesus, that it happened in warranty...and the company is honoring it. Go on a BMW forum, and you'll see $130,000 vehicles falling apart left & right...good luck..

air suspension is the thing I like MOST about my 19....never had one problem..and to me, it's a must-have for towing.

well...I'm a retired insuance adjuster, so for what it's worth , here goes. First off, the truck IS totaled. Engine is hydro locked, and no carrier wants to deal with that. As far as the wheels? If you want them, just take them off, and put stock set up back on, they add no value to the ins co...

went through one in the 70's...head on with collision with a 442

make sure to be in Aero height.....you liable to pick up another .0000000000000001 MPG ....:rolleyes:

people still use air? :p

believe you wanted to say "wouldn't impact"? Cause I sure wouldn't impact on brake caliper bolts.

as long as the rotors are still withing spec AFTER they get cut...you should be good for a long time. A tip for getting more life out of a rotor...if you do a moderate-hard stop, like coming off a highway exit, where you go from say 80 down to a full stop, when you come to the stop, let your...

this is nuts...$2K!!??...I picked up a set of front pads at Autozone for like $140 or so...truck doesn't come close to needing yet at 45K miles...If you can, have the rotors cut...will save you tons right there over replacing them.

your right...nothing is worse as far as hose clamps go, than cheap worm gear types...there's a reason the factories don't use them on the assembly line...some know, some don't...

ya...this looks real "perfect"... :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

....even if you could... you'd keep upping the chance of a leak each time you did that!!...keep trying :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

nope...as soon as you pull it apart, and stick your fingers in there...it becomes a potential fail point! Where there was one factory clamp, there is now 2 shade tree mechanic clamps...and a "valve" from who knows where in China.....I can take my HF clamp off in 1 minute and inspect for any...

...but you DO have to worry about all the potential fail points you created now :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

you clamped it too tight man. My 19 shows absolutely no damage...how would it make the walls thinner? "Each line clamp is specially designed to stop flow without damaging or compromising the hose." HF Clamp kit

nope, the clamp does NOT kink the hose, just constricts it a little if you don't crank the **** out of it...I'd much rather have 1 weak point, than 3.....
