  1. This is just ridiculous.. I am suprised and I am not suprised that Arnold passed this. I thought he would stand behind us as he is a rider himself. But either way I don't give two sh**s about this horrible state anyway and thats why I don't have anything registered here except for my car, which that is about to change here soon too. Piss on California and all the tree huggers in it. Goldie
  2. Guess I didn't even have a shot at these even though I was the first to repond let me know if they sell.
  3. Yeah, he is paying my deductible. Since he was drinking no we didn't make a report or anything. I kind of live in the middle of the desert so I went to the most "reputable" place within a 100 miles. So I really hope that it comes out all right. I am NOT going to except it if it is anything but the best. I grew up in a body shop so I am going to fine tooth comb the truck when I go get it. I'm serious I am not taking any tape lines or anything.
  4. So I had my truck parked at the local VFW, and I got a phone call after I had all ready got a ride because I knew that I was too drunk to drive. The phone call started with "man I am sorry but I backed in to your truck." MAN!!! So I look at it the next day of course he hit it with his trailer hitch backing up. The passenger door is toast, also pushed in to the rocker. Just the plastic rocker alone costs over 400 dollars. Took it to the shop yesterday to get it fixed and the quote was 3,800 dollars. Thank GOD for insurance. First time I have ever had to use it but hey, I guess it is good to have sometimes. Anyway, without my baby for over a week, driving a cobalt. Sam
  5. This is not something that I want to do but I think that I have to as Gas prices have finally started really affecting my small wallet. I am trying to see if this is something that is even possible. I am now located at Edwards AFB in SoCal. I still owe money on this truck so I don't really know how that works either if some one could give me some info on that. 2003 Silverado SS 34,500 MI S&B Cold Air BBK Shorty headers Flow Master Exhaust dual outlet Serviced every 2- 2500 mi mobil one there is one dent on the left fender. the back bumber could use some paint. The truck is clean on the inside no excessive wear Plugs are less than 8000 mi Let me know if there is anything else that I could tell you. I can't post pictures today as I am at work right now. I can email pics upon request. The bed is a little beat up as I used it when I needed to but the prior owner used for some sort of work truck cause there are 2 holes in each bed rail that were for a truck box. I have taken great care of this truck and really would hate to get rid of it but my round trip to work went from 8 miles a day to close to 50. Goldie
  6. Do you have the passanger door panel? I also need the little rubber mat that goes in the rear of the center console. And did your outside temp read accurately? If so I would like to get the temp sensor that is in the front grille. Where abouts are you located, maybe can do a pick up. Thank you. Goldie
  7. I still want to see what the red color matched looks like?? Anyone have this? Or is it just best to clear with the red? Should have held out for a black truck!! Goldie
  8. To the people with the trans temp not moving. I only live about 6 miles away from base and my temp gauge never moves to or from work. It takes about 15 min of driving during the colder months for it to start warming up. And no I didn't see when you posted so I am sorry about that. Goldie
  9. Yeah just got it on monday. I guess some other guy on here has pictures of the pages on his post. I don't have that kind of time on the computer. His listing is under GM techincal. I almost thought that he copy and pasted my thread and added the pics.
  10. To all with Instrument cluster problems. My temp went out the other week. Bought a new sending unit. Nothing. Then start reading about this whole cluster issue everyone is having and start thinking about the interceptor gauges. Then Whala the GM Gods must have heard my prayer. In the mail I received yesterday an extended warranty packet regarding instrument clusters on 2003 silverados. It is valid for 7 yrs or up to 70,000 miles. It says any sticking or fluctuation of the gauges. It also had a sheet in there to fill out if you have all ready had this work done on your truck. It is to try and get reimbursed for your expenses. I will be calling the dealership first thing tomorrow. Goldie
  11. To anyone that is in the Fort Walton Beach area, Panhandle of Florida. I have sent an email to a company in Mobile that has an all wheel Dyno and I am trying to find out if they have any expieience with our trucks. I know that they can cut a decent deal if we have a few all wheels for them at once. I need to know if there is anyone intrested in this are though before I pursue it for everyone if not then I will only ask for myself. I am asking for your input before I do the research. This would go for anyone that is willing to meet in Mobile, AL. I will be checking this as often as I can so please let me know!! Thanks to everyone, Goldie
  12. Hey just wondering if anyone else has this problem out there and what they are doing for it. My passenger window/ door lock panel is not secure anymore. The part that is actually broken is on the door panel itself where the body clip from the window panel pushes in to the door panel. I don't know how the hell it broke I have never even taken the door panel off?? Anyway, I tried double bubble once and it really didn't work so I was going to try it again maybe some better epoxy maybe some suggestion?? Thanks!! Back from Iraq, Goldie
  13. I have one these emblems on my truck and I am not a pessimist but I was really disappointed that after I spent 75 or 85 dollars on an emblem that when I got it, it had red tape in the recessed "SS". I mean atleast up the price another 5 dollars and put some paint in there something that dosen't snag when you are drying your truck with a towel and also something that completes the recess not that is almost there. For that price it should be all there not almost there. Just so you know though the quality of the tie itself is unmatched!!! Goldie
  14. Saw 2 of them on ebay yesterday, the thing I think one was at 220?? That or a online junkyard would be the best bet. Goldie
  15. Hey everyone back again with another iffy?? Just started a few days ago, when I start my truck up sometimes the fuel gauge is not just taching up like it usually does. When I have the distance meter up on the dash that will slowly climb also 100 150...... And so on. Is my sending unit going bad?? Don't know. If I cycle the ignition it will go right back up? Thank you in advance. Goldie
  16. Don't know where you are from but I would love to swap to a 2 wd. I would be intrested in swapping some stuff with you. OM me if there is any intrest.
  17. No I don't have any pics cause it is all done now. Sorry about the punctuation. I was in a rush. Score 1 for the away team your right it is not a "Y-Pipe" but for anybody that was talking exhause they would know exactly where you were talking about. Yes your 03 does have a gasket between the collector and the intermediate pipes. It is a litttle circle that fits into the intermediate pipe and then crushes closed against the collector when tightened. This little circle is also called a doughnut gasket. Thought there was some special trick to getting it out on these Great trucks that really aren't so great all the time. Beat it up with a screw driver till there was enough metal to grab with a vise grips... By the way why IN THE WORLD WOULD YOU CHANGE BOLTS THAT HAVE BEEN THE STANDARD WELL PROBABLY SINCE YOUR PARENTS GRAND PARENTS HAVE BEEN DRIVING>??? Why change the header bolts and exhaust studs??? What happened to 3/8 header bolts What happened to the standard system?? Oh well I guess this is just another lost cause again. Thanks again!!!
  18. PLEASE HELP ASAP. I am trying to put on some headers on the truck and I bought the new doughnuts that go into the Y-pipe in btw the header and Y-pipe but can't get the old ones out. Any hints, tips?? Thank you . Trying to finish today!!!
  19. rear diff just did this weekend. 75-90 Mobil 1 synthetic. No additive. 3.5 qts is what it calls for, I think mine took a little less might check it this weekend. That stuff is expensive or a little over the top I thought for gear lube should have bought oil for the bike too while I was at it. Anyway don't know what year yours is mine 2003 and I didn't see any drain plug on there at all but take the cover off that way you can clean the magnet. Hope it helps. I know if you search about the tranny there is some info on here and a debate about which fluid to use Dex 3 or Auto track 2\
  20. Go with what you know always sounds good on any V* and did I mention built in America atleast I think they still are FLOWMASTER> There are a lot of brands that have come up through the ranks since I have started this whole car thing but the only brand that you'll ever be happy with is the Flow. Just my opinion
  21. Where can I go to look up some of this info?? All ready have a laptop just need the software and cables?? Let me know where I can go to research THANKS
  22. Tired Nah?? Tired of that bike that sits in the garage caise I am driving the SS everywhere. Love it!! Can't wait to get back from the desert and put a cam in it. Then I will love it more. The pump gets old but there are a few things that I've learned driving V8s since I was 18. Gas is something that you have to have and if you don't want to pay the price then support those a***oles in another country that continue to take jobs from my family and most peoples family that grew up anywhere around the big 3. Yeah I graduated from EDSEL FORD HIGH SCHOOL. I thought the motto was keep America rooling not china korea or japan??? Anyway just my 2 cents and for the guy thats on his 5th car at 21 I think I was at 11 but the silverado SS is definetly a KEEPER!!! Atleast for a few yrs.
  23. Man I saw this post in here and when I pay off the things that I all ready have on the way I think that I am defintly going to consider this, go to www.subthump.com This box is pretty damn good looking. Don't tell too many people though cause I don't want too many people having the same stuff.
