My buddy just sent this to me. http://www.autosite.com/content/shared/art...cle_id_int/1418 All I can say is Honestly, if this is the new Silverado, what the hell is GM thinking!? This thing is absolutely hideous! I sure hope the 2wd and performance edition options they have make it look better than this. What's up with the half chrome/half painted front bumper? How about those, giant fenders that take up the whole bed? etc. etc.... I can go on and on! It almost looks like a Ford escape pickup/nissan exterra pickup. I can't believe what I'm seeing! P.S. be sure and advance to the pictures on the following pages of that link. Or, not if you really want to

Just curious to know the percentage of members who have an aftermarket transmission cooler that have also done a shift kit and/or torque converter. If you have one installed, what brand and model number? Feel free to list what else you have had done to your transmission and/or truck that you would think meant it necessary for new trans cooler. Also, what climate (or state) do you live in? Thanks.

CONGRATS!

Okay, problem solved! My brother took it to a local installer and he used some special Kenwood remote that unlocks the deck. Of course, my brother had him reset it with the code he wanted so this problem will never happen again!

Hi all, I just installed the a new PCM in my S-10 two days ago and it works great except for idle. At idle it stumbles really bad and jumps up and down several hundred rpm. Sometimes it seems like it almost dies. My brother got one from the same tuner for his 04 silvy and it is fine. The only possible explanation I could think of is that there is some left over 87 in the tank and it's tuned for 92. Any ideas why it might be doing this?

That's what all the car audio places said to do but they (kenwood) were closed this weekend. Supposedly, each deck has its own code or process that they have to give you or something to the matter. I've also heard you have to send the deck in to them to have it reset. I figure there has to be other ways than that though. All I can say is what a friggin' joke! That's precisely why I never set mine. But what are you supposed to do if you bought the truck (or deck) second hand? I'll let you know if I find out anything.

Well actually didn't lock me out, but it locked my brother out of his deck! He bought the truck (04 Silvy) from a dealership last July with this deck in it and we just went to install his new PCM from Wait4me yesterday (as we also installed one for my S-10 too.) We unplugged the battery, installed the PCM and plugged everything back in. Oh- GREAT!!! That's F'n Wonderful! We tried every possible code that we could think of but to no avail. I have the same deck so we read though the manual. Apparently, once you set a code there is no way to reset it! What the hell is wrong with KENWOOD! Anyone that know's any possible way to get around this PLEASE LET US KNOW! Thanks.

Some more. I have a lot more good pics but these take up so much space.

Yeah when we went down to charlotte, NC for the race last weekend we saw a nice hail damaged car parked next to us. We were in the field next to DEI, puttin' down some beers before we went in. I don't know what I would do if that happened to my truck! I feel for you man! Here's some picks of the car and DEI too.

Just wondering in case I have to bring it to the dealership for this. Will they void the warranty? I've searched but have not found a definite answer. Thanks.

Discount Tire is pretty good too. The reason I went with 265's is because they only made the type of tire I wanted that was close enough to what I was looking for in size. I got Nitto 420 265/50/20's. I'm pretty happy with them so far.

No, but I just went to Lowes last weekend. Just got back late last night. We traveled all the way from Seattle, and the home town boy Kasey Kahne won! It was an awesome experience. We went to last years 600 too.

One Word: CANCEL!

That's F'in Sweet!!! It doesn't happen too often where you can actually catch these bastards. I would like to have a few cracks at him myself!

I had a set of Yoko's once. They were great tires. That is, great for a very very short time. They were so soft that they didn't last long at all. One time I went around a corner really fast and it melted the tire straight down to the belts!

Well, I was gonna just do a blue flashing LED. Radioshack didn't have what I was looking for. So, I went to Car Toys and bought a blue LED and was going to have them install it. Then I thought about it a little longer and just figured that it would be well worth the money to upgrade. Yeah it's expensive, but in a way also a good form of insurance. I'm having them install the highest Clifford model they sell (I think it's the Matrix3.5.) With this, I have remote start, remote door locks, flashing lights, multiple dual zone sensors, window sensors, tilt sensor, backup alarm, blue LED, super high decibel interior piezo alarm (so that no one could stand to be inside it when the alarm is activated,) and I can't even remember all the other stuff I got with it. Plus, I had them install a blue LED today until my alarm gets installed on Saturday. That way I can have two blue flashing LED's! I want to see someone try and break in now! Oh yeah, forgot to mention that it has a pager remote too. It alerts you up to 1500' away!

Thanks Mr. P! That helped out a lot. Now I just need to go to radioshack, find the right product and figure out how to wire this thing!

Hey, just a thought. Do you guys know how to install a flashing LED on the factory alarm? My brother bought his (used) '04 RCSB and the previous owner installed a blue flashing LED to the factory alarm. I asked some stereo installers to do it but no one would, I guess for liability reasons.

Yeah, if their products are anything like that typing then that tells you something right there!

Hey all, well my neighbor told me that he saw some jerkoff car prowlin' my truck last night. He said the guy was monstrous and looked like an ex "Roider". The best part about it is my neighbor was sitting in his car 2 spots away from mine watching the guy looking in all my windows. Then he went right up to his car and started looking through his hatch (nissan xterra). Right about that time my neighbor got out of his car and freaked the dude and he took off. The good news is all that was visible was my deck (although a $1000+ deck). Supposedly, the person lives in my apartment complex a couple buildings away, as my neighbor said he's seen him getting his mail just the other day and he took off in that direction. My question is: Will the factory alarm go off if the windows get broken? I don't recall seeing window sensors on it. I can't wait to catch this guy in the act!!! I haved a signed baseball bat with his name on it! I just wish my neigbor called the cops. ARGHH! Now it's getting me worried. Sounds like it might be time for an aftermarket alarm.

Very well worded! Go get em' TIGER!

There already is a couple threads for this. http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2857 http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=8379 And mod info: http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=6247 Hope that helps!

It makes me really happy I bought Belltech! By the way, I think someone needs to go back to english class!

Hey all, I'm going to have a buddy install my walbro GSS340, but I need to know if the wiring harness will match up with our stock fuel pump? The one I bought from racetronix is for Syclone's and Typhoon's. Is there any major wiring work that will need to be done to make it work? Any info is appreciated!

I know a few people who have Gibson's (including my brother on his RCSB 5.3,) and it is really quiet. Way TOO quiet for me. My brother want's louder too. The performance doesn't seem too bad with it though.
