    in Suspension & Brakes

    Posted

    get er done! I got stock replacement/aftermarket parts. Spent like $!50 and threw new rotors and pads on...caught the pass side after it lost all the pads down to the rivits :) I knew it was making a funny sound.

     

    Only extra was I painted the rotors flat black befor intall so I hope they stay a little cleaner.

     

    ANd I let my stepson drive her for the first time solo...he was impressed. Good times.

    What did you log?? just pulling the codes is not going to help. YOu could have them look at the MAF readings? See if its getting the full amount of timing at the spots? You could have timing pulled and that would feel flat, your throttle position would not matter if timing is getting pulled out.

     

    Does the truck have a tune?? The stock tune delays the PE...and some other things that make the trucks feel down on power??

     

    good luck, but I would try to not start replacing parts with out a plan, ie you could fix something that would make truck run better but not fix the problem only to rear its ulgy head later.

    I bet Zippy has some good VE tables that he uses, so I would not be too worried as long as you tell him what you have. IMO untill you get a live tune there will always be some left on the table to protect your truck.

    screw driver into lock cylinerd on drivers door. everything in there is plastic and easy to either dislodge the lock cylinder or the door handle. I was lucky they were good :( and did not damage the door paint or handle. I am gonna pull it apart and make a plate and secure the lock cylinder with a metal hose clamp...check out jimmyjammers site, informative and scary how easy these trucks are to get in. I am also considering a new alarm that is not controlled by the door locks.

     

    I am going thru my connection to see if I can find an officer who will kick some ass...but mostly trying to get over it! its a big downer to feel violated.

     

    thanks again guys, I knew you would understand.

    we tracked her Ipad with my iphone and the track my iphone app...got a GPS location about 10 blocks away, found my kids bag on the curb near where I got a ping for the divice. I uderstand what is legal for police to do...and I am not wanting to violate anyone else but this seemed like an easy win for the police. But we have had alot of budget reduction in our police force in the city so I know that property is not important.

     

    Tring to move past it, for the kids more than anything. All their swimming trunks were stolen and they were sad :(

    Got to get some jimmyjammers put on the truck so its not so easy to get into, I am so glad they did not steal the entire truck.

     

    I know I could get ghetto as hell and go to the house but too many people get shot in detroit...

    thanks for the support guys
