  1. I think its best to just rebuild, these front diffs are hard to find (I believe you can do the same year Escalade front diff, not sure). I do not have info on where to get parts though besides the dealership. edit-I believe a company called Jasper does front diffs for our trucks.
  2. Brass model trains, my beagle's, real trains (passenger service like Amtrak and MBTA). Many others but those are the mainstay besides the obvious truck. My current beagle is on the left Deceased Beagles RIP The coaches were made during the 70s when I wasnt existing yet. Just a taste of the collection but I only collect what is seen here Amtrak train models during the 1990's. This seems to steal all my mod money 1 of 25 made Real trains at Boston South Station and MA
  3. I am happy to hear you walked basically away from the accident. I was in a wreck as passenger into a telly poll at 47mph straight head on into passenger headlight (my side) and head was wedged between windshield and dash and airbag in mouth. Permanent damage to neck in multiple areas. Your truck proves these are strong, safe frames. Like stated, your health is most important, these trucks are replaceable and with patience you can find the SS you will like. Im glad to hear your doing ok sir.
  4. DJM has a nice beefy sway bar setup. You stock height or lowered? I would go for Edelbrock IAS or Bilstein shocks if stock height.
  5. Buick Regal Turbo. Low key, not a car that screams attention and fast. Just to let you know the older WRX STI is faster than the EVO. I do not know the price on the Regal Turbo, just saw one the other day and it looked nice.
  6. Sorry to hear this, keep your head up. When I was dropped in mid '11 pretty much heartbroken I just showed the SS alot of attention by detailing it as much my shoulder would allow and walking my beagle for 2-3 hours a day. Good therapy right their. Plenty of nice girls out their still. Turns out another girl found me and I am very happy, she loves trucks also. I thought I wouldnt find another girl for awhile. I would have hoped your buddy would at least have said something right off the bat, so it wasnt devastating. Karma will swing around soon to your buddy. True friends dont avoid the truth or go behind each others backs imo.
  7. What tires you running? Throw some Bridgestone Blizzaks or Duellers on your truck and your set in the winter. These trucks can be a blast in the snow.
  8. I think I want to see this Birch in person, I love the black bowtie, ducts and SS emblem. Exact way I would have done a SB up. I shall be scooting around this spring. Pictures look great man
  9. Sorry to hear about the incident, some drivers
  10. Yes!!!! I also might have to steal this one for facebook, with credit due to the site.
  11. Nope. The majority are. edit - the state that is round on both ends and high in the middle made a couple from some threads Ive read on here.
  12. Look in the driver door jam, they should have the number DEI SS it was, if it's indeed a repainted one. Theirs other spots you can tell if its legitwith the # out of 933 badged.
  13. Cheers buddy, we need some old school members back on here, theirs numerous threads where no respect is shown and I know you lay the smack down. Back to the topic, I hope their pathetic hooligans get a nice stay in jail, they will never attempt that bs again.

    Idle Stall?

    How often do you drive the truck? I rarely drive mine but when i took mine out it would dip into the 300s and almost stall at a complete stop. I never did any alternator change or batter swap. Still factory setup. However I was told to drive it a few cycles (like 10-20 miles) and the pcm would relearn. Never had a problem again. Just have to say again I did not swap anything out. So as I stated how much you drive the drive truck? Daily driver? Very rarely?

    F250 Smash

    I had a dually QC purposely pull over from the left the lane on the highway just to dump and pour black smoke on my SS. Only to his suprise when he let off I did the stupid ricer fly by in the middle lane and he was bs, black smoke on black truck = stealth pass and a big "dayum" grin on his face. Those 33 inch tires killed him. Was a QC or what body type? I drove a 250 for plowing and my truck had no chance against this thing. It was like a Srt-10 making a smoke show when we wanted.
  16. Not trying to be a jerk, but this is asked almost every week. The search button is your best friend along with looking in the brake section. Seems like EBC is popular now. I am upgrading to the 06 front brakes (calipers, 13inch rotors and pads). Stock as I dont need a BBK, maybe a hyrdoboost in the future when I have my build decided.
  17. something similar happened in boston the other week, 5 people tried jumping a single woman, while about 10 others walked by. Sad to see what this country is coming to. Good to see you back Wody.
  18. John is the man. Havent met him in person but plan to this year, hoping this spring.
  19. My truck will be my hearse, that explains it all. I want a z06 really bad also, but we are moving so that might be the next toy after reducing house size but I will need a bigger garage or just an exotic car storage spot.
  20. Recieved my driver side mirror today from member Time2Kill and it was wrapped perfectly. Very nice member to deal with, quick with responses and very helpful on questions I had. Also very patient with me, highly respect this member and would always do business with him again. Thank you Time2Kill.
  21. I think the scheduling issue is the tough part. I know many others that went to him and not a bad note about him at all. I know your schedule is tough, but when you start saying I can only do x,y,z then he might be only to do a,b,c. Sorry to hear the misfortune, he will be tuning my truck. After seeing what he did the LQ9 in the red Silverado, I wouldnt think twice and use him or one other tuner in MA. Then its onto Zippy once the big mods come. I would go to Zippy or KelleyPerformance since your down near him.
  22. Best bang your for your buck is the magnaflow muffler as stated. The stock pipes are great on this truck. Voalnts seem to be on some of the fastest trucks on the site also, but I do like the idea of a true concealed airbox with a non oiled conical filter (GMPP). Im sure at highway speeds the Volant with ram air duct scoop with gain you a some hp no question. Have to consider also what tone exhaust you like, deep tone or mellow and then screams like a nascar fastcar at wide open throttle. The magnaflow is a nice deep tone muffler, if I were to go deep tone thoug I would go with the Gibson Super Truck catback. Good luck and happpy modding
  23. Those were love taps compared to what real shit happens.
  24. I might be interested buddy, I wanted one but want it the original gold colored chevy bowtie and black SS in the bowtie. I can just get a leaf plate for the gold color, send me a PM and lets see if we can make a deal, Im sick of the woman time for some SS attention.
  25. I would love to see Pats 49ers or Pats Giants Rematch, no disrespect to the Ravens they are good. Eli Manning is putting himself this year among elite quaterbacks and nobody is giving respect. Regardless this weekend and SB weekend will be a blast nobody who makes it.
