  2. damn dogs.. it is not so much "the killer instinct" but more of look what i brought home for you aren't you proud of of me?. there just trying to please the master. had a cat who use to do the same thing, but when she brought a live snake into the house, well that all she wrote... as long as she not going after people, little kids, i would still use caution and get her trained..
  3. sounds like maybe the break booster diaphragm went out. a couple years ago i towed a 04 silv that it happened to them while doing75 down the freeway. good luck
  4. my bracket never was mounted when i bought it new. i have the bracket still in the plastic just in case it needs to be mounted. i have not been stopped YET, but my come back would be, how many late model Vetts, Vipers have you seen with front plates
  5. i saw a post a while back not here i believe, and stated that they drown like a mother. was compared to a blowmaster..but it could just be someone who was disappointed in the sound. Corsa = no drown..and they did.
  6. if your going to run duals dumped like that, off set the the mufflers by about 1/3 and don't wield them together. when off set, it give a space for the frequency somewhere to go. about 90% if it goes out the top and bottom of the muffler, so if the frequency has no where to go except to be trapped between the 2 mufflers and resonates even worse. also by offsetting them will cut down your in cab noise by at least by 50%. this will work with any dual muffler setup either dumped or with tail pipes...
  7. now that is with out a doubt..
  8. the only way I'll ever see the beaches, is when the big one hits and Cajon pass is the new coast line..

  15. i put splash guards in mine just after i bough it. past experience with Long Island winters with salt/sand. when i moved back to the high desert, i was going to remove them. but i live on a 80 Yards long drive of crushed asphalt and gravel, i worked on a dirt lot, and 75% of the roads here are dirt, and my Komos pick up a lot of rock.. got use to them being on. no chips in fenders or rockers,
  16. on older ones, there use to be a data tag on one of the diff. bolts. larger trucks had a tag mounted on the case with rivets. you can jack it up, and rotate the tires and count drive shaft rotations but it will only be close. last pull the cover, and count ring gear teeth, and pinion teeth, and do the math.. good luck
  17. i have had the XM since 03 and i like it. same as most here, i live out where there is only a few radio stations so you don't get much choice. the ones you hear most come from south of the border.. i have made quite a few trips cross country, and it sure is nice, driving Thur the mid west and not having to listen to the Rev. Billy Bob telling me that I'm going to hell for something i haven't done yet i hope they get both better, and don't jack up the price..

  22. i think you are making a wise move, and are lucky. some of us "old farts" here got the old Greetings From The president Of The United States...your a$$ is drafted.. even so, i still believe everyone should do there time in the military. Even for only 3 yrs. i was with a lot of good people who were only going to stay in 2-3 yrs. and found what they were looking for and lasted 20-25 yrs. of service..my dad, 3 uncles and my aunt were all Navy in WWW II all in the pacific. i joined the Army and I'm reminded all the time good luck, and as my dad always said.. if it wasn't for the Navy, the Marines would have to walk everywhere... here is a new desk top for you USS IOWA
