My passenger side cat converter has gone bad. What size is the exhaust? I would like an easy replacement.....clamp on with minimal welding. Any suggestions? thanks

I need a black driver's side fender for my 04 thanks

the new pump fixed the issue. When I turned the wheel to full lock, there was no additional noise from the pump....there should have been. When at full lock and revved up a bit, the pump made the sound of a bad pump.

i could be anything...i have not narrowed it down. thanks for the suggestion

the drive shafts? I know the rear shaft, front u joint is bad.

Ive spent too much time researching the issue. The pump is only about $70. Ill put it in and report back with the results.

i just checked the ps fluid level and its good. i started the truck and was able to turn easily while the rpms hadnt idled down yet. when it got down to 800 became hard. The belt looks ok. Would it help changing the fluid? I dont understand why it has been ok for all these years and suddenly be bad, which make me wonder why i would new the updated orfice.

i just checked it out. 2 in 2 out (all 2.5 in) the body of the muffler is 13.5 and the overall length is 19.2. i can go up to 22 in length. the system looks stock and mostly stainless. about 6 inches on both sides the pipes are all rusted.

im sick of both the drone and loudness and drone. im going to see what is on it now

my truck is 04. does my trcu have hydroboost?

Over the years, I have, unfortunately, gotten sick of my loud exhaust. Any recommendation on a quite muffler than performs ok? thanks Shawn

My steering wheel is very hard to turn at low rpms. There is no noise coming from the power steering pump. Ive read about changing an orifice in the pump. How can I diagnose the problem? Thanks

I have the common issue of ABS engaging at slow speed on 2 chevy trucks. Is there a cheap ODB2 ABS scanner which can tell me which side is causing the issue? Thanks

Zippy, i agree with you that I am chasing the problem with guesses, but I must have lucked out cause the noise has gone away. The noise occured with little to no load on the engine, cruising i guess. Thanks for the reply, Shawn

It looks like u may have fried a trace. Its probably repairable. you will need a mutlimeter to check for continunity. If the trace is damaged, you can fix the spot with a flux pen and solder. you may have to add a small piece of wire to jump the bad spot. You need the smallest diameter solder you can find and a 15 watt iron. scrape the coating from the trace...but dont dig into the trace, they are very thin. Apply flux to the trace and add wire if necessary

tayldss, I havent check the transfer case fluid yet. blown346, the grinding would last 1 to 2 sec, which is very a long time. It would make the noise randomly, and I did not do anything in particular. I havent greased the front end in about 3 years. After I greased the front end, the noise has stopped (at least I think it did). I havent greased the idler or pittman arm yet...I have to get a diff. end for my grease gun, but after I greased the noise seemed to stop. Only time will tell. I keep updating the thread as I find things out. Shawn

As the noise became more frequent, I was able to pinpoint the issue to a ball joint.

thanks for the replys!!!! i cant replicate the noise. im gonna have to go over the front end.

I have heard a grinding noise coming from the front end. It has happened about 5 times now and last for 1-2 sec. It seems to happen within the first mile after sitting for awhile, but Im unsure exaclty when. Could it be transfer case, U-joint? Thanks

I believe it is caused by the injectors shutting down, which is normal

Lightly brush clean any discolored areas on circuit board on the back of the cluster. The light is now out.

Good idea, the dash reads about 14v when running. Ill have to check with DMM though. I suspect that is not the issue since the light is dimly lit all the time. Thanks

My low batt. idiot light is always on and has been this way for quite sometime. Its on even when the truck has been sitting for a day. My battery is getting old, but its not junk yet. I read this is another cluster issue; an issue with corrosion on the back of the cluster. Ive also read it can be an ignition issue. Does anyone have experience with this issue? thanks

update: I fixed the problem almost a year ago; I just want to update. Had cluster rebuilt- bad MOSFET on board

It wasnt towed on a flat bed. It was towed with 2 wheels on the ground. what is the damage when towed improperly?
