Front and rear diff fluid change
Bob_the_builder replied to harleygrant's topic in AWD, Differential, & Transmission Tech
JC03SS,, Is this the AMSOIL you would run: 75w90 Synthetic Gear Oil. If I went with your second choce of Mobil 1 should I be concerned if the bottle says Limited Slip on it like the image below? Thanks, Bob -
Front and rear diff fluid change

On a similar note, can you buy Mobil 1 75w90 with or with out LS? I have seen different bottles advertised. Just wondering if they changed the bottle design or if it two different types of oil. Bob -
Front and rear diff fluid change
Bob_the_builder replied to harleygrant's topic in AWD, Differential, & Transmission Tech
I was looking at picking up some diff fluid and I noticed that on the bottle of Royal Purple 75W90 it says "with friction modifier additive". Link:http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/royal-purple-75w-90-synthetic-gear-oil-0280241p.html#.VMGkhDhMWbA I was wondering if this is ok to use or if there is another Royal Purple oil to use. Also looking for a store in my area that sells Mobil #1 75w90. -
Whats the spray called? I really like the look and might want to try it on my truck. Bob

If your brakes are stock you will not have a problem. I use 16" rims for my winter tires. -Bob

Who Knows How To Take The Front License Plate Holder Off?
Bob_the_builder replied to EmoWalrus05's topic in General SS
The front license plate holder is held on with 4 aluminum rivets. The only way to take it off is to drill out the 4 rivets. Once off you will have 4 holes in your front bumper. -Bob -
Does any one have any pictures of it?

Your pricing is very good. Last Oct. I drove into a post (long story) with my SS and the damaged looked the the exact same but my grill and bowtie were still ok. I spent about $5000 to fix it up and I did all the work myself except for bending and painting the fender. I did go with all GM original parts and I had to replace the core/radiator support. The cost to fix the fend along was $1300 (body work and paint). Anyways good luck with the repair. -Bob

The hood looks great. I noticed you are missing the black tape that goes between the upper and lower portion of the front bumper. Did the body shop have trouble getting it from GM? -Bob

The diagram you attached describes the proceedure well but I am trying to figure out how bracket #15 mounts to the bumper and I guess more importantly the nut number 16, I am not sure what bolt that nut goes on. The diagram I am referring to is in the link below: Link: http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/topic/49710-sss-front-bumper-install-s/ Thanks, Bob

After hitting a post with my truck, I am trying to re-install a new SS front bumper but I cannot figure out where the two brackets that hold the lower part of the bumper mount to. On the exploded view given by GM the bracket is listed as Item #15. I just cannot find where the top part of the bracket mounts to. Any help would be great. -Bob

I have called 2 junkyards in my area and they do not have any fenders in stock. They said they could order in an after-market fender for about half the cost of the GM fender. I just have been told the after-market stuff doesn't usually fit as well as the GM ones but on the other hand I am having some problems with the GM one too. I have a 2004 HD 3500 and it has the right fender measurement on it. I am wondering if I should just take it off my work truck and just deal with the fit issues on that fender. -Bob
