Just wondering if anyone has used any Brain Tooley cams and if so which one in a stock sss.
-
ok thanks aldofashow
-
Anyone know which nuts and bolts to loosen to adjust front bumper on 05 ss? Its not real bad but just irritates me to no end, its out of adjustment on passenger side.
-
Alright thanks Doughty i appreciate the info i might dive into this myself sometime soon.
-
Ok, I will check the hub and see what I can see there Johnny. What did it cost you to have the chain replaced Doughty08? Or did you do it yourself?

I have been hearing a snap or pop noise from the drivers side of my 05 awd ss, so I replaced all control arms and ball joints thinking it was a ball joint, I also put on some beltech 2'' drop spindles. Well the noise is still there every now and then if turning hard left at slow speed, taking off from a stop sign (light) as well as at about 15 mph and putting the skinny pedal to the floor. This is the strange part, sometimes when I start it the whole truck will move forward until all slack is gone from drivetrain and it will make a snap noise from drivers side. So if anybody has any ideas I would appreciate it. Thanks all

Well I received a SLP cai from the clause this Christmas only to find out it won't fit! The mass air flow sensor is way to big on the end that goes closest to the filter. It already has a k&n on it but there is no shroud or case for the filter so its out there in the open and hits part of the radiator framing or headlight frame work. Now the K&N filter fits the mass air sensor like it should but is way to big for the slp one. I called Delphi and found out it is the correct maf but is an outdated model. Sounded kinda strange to me but just curious if anyone has an idea to solve this? I know I could get a new maf but is there a way this can come apart with out hurting it?

Y'all are damn right for sure!

My wife about a month ago opened her car door the wind caught it and put a nice dent in the passenger side fender of my sss! I was pissed but hey it was an accident and she about cried. lol so its all good! On the other hand years ago my ole man had a 69 z28 he and my mom were leaving a bar as they walked out he saw a lady get out of her car and put a nice dent in his fender. Well, as the 6'2 ole mans blood began to boil he waited for the dumb ass to enter the bar, then with his cowboy booted foot he kicked the front fender of he her car in! he and my mom left the bar he said with a fairly good angry grin on his face! lol sorry for such a long story but hey bitch deserved all of that I think!

Awesome idea mid12sSSS! You wouldn't happen to have the phone # off hand would you?
-
Which color Lloyds mats match our carpet the best? Grey, Smoke, or ebony? Anyone know
-
I will give that a shot first it could be the problem and that's an easy fix.
-
Maybe I will start with the shaft first and see if I jerk it off if that helps. Lol
-
Hey thanks for that advice blown346! I'm no ace mechanic but that all sounds logical to me. That's probably what I will do is take it somewhere and see if they can tell me what the noise is and fix it myself.
-
yeah, could it still be the steering shaft if it doesn't make any noise while turning or any other time? I checked everything when I changed shocks not long ago but I will pull it all apart and check again. What about something in the front drivetrain itself axle shafts or maybe something in the transfer case? Hopefully not the later of those things. lol

Hey all! Well I have a new noise in my 05 AWD ss. The noise is coming from the drivers side front wheel area on take off from a dead stop usually under not so much a hard launch but just moderate. It will make a pretty loud snap usually just once and then it won't do it again until I park then drive it again if it doesn't make a the loud snap it almost feels like I can feel something shift under the floorboard. Truck drives straight and true with no issues. Any ideas on were to start would be a great help.

good info 8hnpss
-
A 4l80e will it bolt right up or is there some changes that need to be made?
-
What trans builder you think is the better flt or mad dog? Y'all think the rear diff. Is the next weakest link?
-
Well I could be wrong 8hnpss but a 1000 hp?! Ain't no way in hell the drivetrain on an ss will handle that. I am looking at maybe 600 at the flywheel being the most I would even consider and that just a ticking time bomb waiting to explode! I for sure will have to do something with the tranny when the time comes.
-
Well, no really big plans right now its only got 68k miles on it so nothing quite yet. If I do anything anytime soon it would be heads and a cam of some kind. then sometime a texas speed motor or some kind of short block from somewhere then I could possibly use the heads I had already purchased. Just thoughts at this time we all know how that goes I am sure. lol
-
What do y'all think the stock drivetrain will handle as far as HP and Torque in an 05 AWD 4l65?
-
I know, I know... this is a commonly asked question, and I have done a bit of searching here, I am gonna ask anyway. LOL What is the drawback of adding drop keys and shackles on our trucks? Does it really affect our ride that much? I mean, I am only talking an inch or so but an inch as a visual appearance is a big difference. Or so my wife says. HAHA. But seriously, Tell us what you all think.

I just installed mine today and man what a difference! Tony is awesome don't know him real well but every email or question I had he returned an answer almost instantly! I guarantee you anything I need if he has it will be ordering it from him no doubt about it!

yeah ls1/ls2 stage II 660 lift is the one I was looking at along with springs and retainers. Might really be more than I need at this point.
