    Different Wheel Spacer size

    1/4" spanning the distance of 12' is not noticeable to 95% of the people. If it was so noticeable, the factory wouldn't have done it themselves.

    Different Wheel Spacer size

    You won't notice the difference. I have 1.5" all the way around and the fitment appears perfect.

    Significant Noise From Front End Over Bumps

    I think many are experiencing different clunks. So, I would suggest checking the sway bar endlink bushings, UCA torque specs, brake caliper bolts and hood bump stops. If you want to replace the sway bar body bushings, do it, as many have shown there's to be quite worn with low miles. But, if...

    Rebel Decal Care

    Rebel Decal Care

    If you don't protect the decals, they will crack, fade, and start to lift at the edges. There are protectants that offer a lubrication to keep them from getting brittle. The sun and UV rays will cause them to deteriorate without some protection.

    Centering Steering Wheel

    I forgot to mention that my alignment was done by the dealer!!!

    Rebel Decal Care

    I have waxed over my decals for many years. I had a 2003 Monte Carlo SS Brickyard 400 edition that had decals all over the car and on the hood. The decals looked great after 12 years, except the aftermarket hood decal that was put on after a slight accident. That one started to discolor and...

    Centering Steering Wheel

    My truck needed to be aligned 8x after I did the level. The problem I have is that the truck was fine after the level until I went for an alignment. After the alignment, my wheel was at about 11:30. I straightened the wheel myself two weeks ago. Someone posted instructions on how ro adjust...

    $2000?

    You're being ripped off. My dealer mentioned a $300 cost for front and rear diff fluid. My dealer also charges $39.95 for my truck's oil changes. They have a $200/hr labor rate, so the plugs should be a 1 hour max effort. I would think everything you're getting done, by a non dealer service...

    I hate modern vehicles [rant]

    The auto tilt of the side view mirrors can be very useful if the manufacturer and the owner set it correctly. My 2006 Silverado was outfitted with 2006 Tahoe mirrors. I had the drivers side set to remain in place, while the passenger mirror tilted down and in so I could see the parking line...

    New Body Mount Parts, no more CLUNK!!

    Ok. The clunk is GONE. The truck does feel more stable and I do feel the road slightly more than before. It only took almost 4 years to resolve but it was solid going over speed bumps that always caused the clunk. Thanks for sharing this fix

    New Body Mount Parts, no more CLUNK!!

    I did the swap this morning. No other changes made so I will know if there's any different feel. I just haven't gone anywhere yet. I'll report back tonight as I know I'm going somewhere today.

    Chirping over bumps

    I did the high temp grease option 3 years ago and no issues since. I'd rather do that than having to respray every few weeks.

    Can anyone explain this to me?

    I had painter's tape also, but unlike the video, I wasn't equally out on both front tires. Is the string method how it used to be done? I just drove 20 miles and the truck was tracking straight and my wheel was straight. Thanks for providing the details on doing this. I thought I was going...

    Can anyone explain this to me?

    Yeah, I initially did by writing CW and CCW on the tape, but after my first adjustment not showing any improvement, I went the same direction another 1/2 turn and it went worse, so my CW and CCW needed to be reversed. No issue, right? Just undo what you just did, but then the steering wheel...

    Can anyone explain this to me?

    Ok, so I did this today and completely messed up. I think I recovered from it, but who knows until I get another alignment!! In the video, the S3 adjustment is made from behind the front tire. On our trucks, the adjustment is made in front of the tire, so where he shortened the length, I...
