  1. Bump for a couple more pictures and the grille price change.
  2. Bump for the change in the grille listing...the mounting bolts will be included with the grille.
  3. First up is a set of "Vortec 6000" engine covers that are in great shape. Took these off my '05 Silverado. -- SOLD Next, is a billet grille insert that I honestly don't know much about because it was on the truck when I bought it. It is not in perfect shape and could use a polish. Probably pretty close to what could be expected after being on the front of a truck for about 30K miles. EDIT: Also, the hardware for mounting the grille will be included -- $70 Last is a Panasonic radio/cd player that I had in my 1999 Silverado. Was working the last time it was in the truck which was about 3 years ago. Comes with remote and the plastic bracket that surrounds the unit. -- SOLD Price does not include shipping. Only things included are what is shown in the pictures. Will be shipping from Madisonville, TX. Thanks for looking. Bottom half: Upper half:
  4. Well, of course since I finally decided to post and get some opinions on this problem...when I used the washer this morning, both sides were working perfectly. But thanks anyway
  5. I need some help regarding how to diagnose and/or fix a problem I am having with my windshield washer. When I use them, the driver's side nozzle sprays perfectly normal, however, the passenger side does not spray at all. I know the obvious answer is that something is blocking the hose that crosses from driver to passenger side, but I don't know what the best way to fix this (or for that matter, be certain that it's the problem) considering that the hose appears to routed under the plastic vent piece at the bottom of the windshield. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
  6. Thanks for the info guys, I am going to look into both of those options
  7. I have finally given up on trying to fix my exhaust leak with clamps in the pipe given with my headers and have decided to just go ahead and weld the slip-fit joint together. So my question is, what type of welding rod would be best to use to weld the stainless? Or, is it possible to weld stainless with a regular mig welding wire? If possible, the rod would be my first choice simply because I have an arc welder and would have to borrow a mig machine. Thanks
  8. The number for the tall one is M1-206
  9. Ya thats the problem though, I have a white VHO so the front bumper has that huge chrome strip in the middle, and I'm not sure I want new wheels right now so those are chrome also. So with all that said, I think I have kind of made up my mind to pass on the ones with the red and just get a normal set of tires lol But thanks for all your input man, its appreciated
  10. I think that Nitto doesn't recommend that because there is a large groove only on the inside of the tire. BTW thanks for the pics, I just wish I could find some pics with white vehicles so I could have a better idea. I agree, on a black car with some other red pieces on the car they look pretty good. I am just scared of making a several hundred dollar mistake lol
  11. It is a red stripe on the sidewall, maybe about an inch or so wide. Thats kind of what I was thinking about paint sticking, I am just trying to see if maybe there is a good product out there that I haven't heard of. And ya, I think there is potential it could look alright, but I'm afraid it could look a little ridiculous also
  12. I found a pretty good deal on a set of nitto nt420s but the only thing holding me back is that they are the ones with the red stripe. So my question is, has anybody had any experience with a good paint that would stick to the tire (for a reasonable amount of time) and cover up the red? Or even better, has anyone had this particular tire and the red doesn't look as bad as I think it might? (btw my truck is white) Thanks
  13. Are all 4 tires the new Kumhos, or do you just have the two on eBay? Thanks
  14. Ya I didn't use it because I was afraid of that exact thing. I just put some muffler sealer in the connection and then some silicone on the outside, and I am hoping that will stop any leaks. And thanks for mentioning the antisieze, I forgot to put a little on my O2's. Once again, Thanks guys
  15. Ya I loosened everything up this morning and tried to realign all the pipes so that the connections were a little straighter. But I haven't started it up yet so I don't know if that helped to seal everyhting up, but hopefully it improved everything a little bit
  16. Wow thats a coincidence, about the time you posted that, I was at the parts store buying that exact thing. Well actually I got that and some JB Weld, but I am leaning more toward the high temp silicone, I am thinking that the JB Weld might be overkill. Isn't that what I already have from OBX? Or are you talking about something else? BTW thank you both for the help
  17. I installed my OBX headers a week ago, and I have an exhaust leak at both clamps supplied by OBX and one more at the clamp on the passenger side pipe just ahead of the muffler ( I'm assuming this is a stock clamp but not sure because the truck already had a catback exhaust when I got it) So my question is what is the best thing to use to seal the leaks? I would rather not weld the joints together just in case I have to ever take the pipes out. Thanks
  18. Thanks for the help guys Edit: One more question, is there anyone that makes a DIY type of ceramic coating? I know it wouldn't be as good as professional but I am just not sure if its worth the couple hundred dollars to get a set of stainless headers coated Again, any info is appreciated
  19. I was wondering if anybody had used a high temp paint (I think dupli-color makes one good to ~16000) on their headers and if it helped with holding the heat inside the header. I just got my OBX headers and I was thinking that ceramic coating might be overkill since I am not concerned with them rusting at all. I am just looking for something to help keep my underhood temps lower. Thanks, any help is appreciated
  20. Ya I read a story this afternoon that was saying the same thing about the video. I was was kind of surprised, but after watching it again, you can notice something is funny when she first goes into the air. But oh well
  21. I saw this over on pt.net, and thought I would share with yall. Its a pretty impressive play, and like the original person that posted it up, I am not sure exactly what to say, but hope you enjoy Click Here - Video
