  1. Doesnt make sense that the 34023s would work correctly with a 4" drop 4x4. Reason being is that stock 4x4 shocks, in theroy, should be 4" taller anyway to account for the lift block. So by removing the 4" lift block you should be down to, roughly, standard height 2WD rear shocks. By using 2WD shocks made for a 4" drop, your shock is now, again in theory, 4" shorter than it should be.

     

    Unfortunatley I dont know the height of 2WD or 4WD OEM rear shocks to back this up.. but it makes sense in my head anyway.

     

     

    The 4x4 block is actually 1 1/2" rise. The difference from a 4x2 (1/2 ton) truck is the block.

    *Stock 4x4 shock is +2"

    *Remove block = stock 4x2 shock

    *-4" = same

     

    How's your head? :)

     

    Leakage? I don't know. Never read that anywhere but, as mentioned, they have a lifetime warranty.

  2. 34023 rears are perfect height for my 4x4 -4" shackle w/block removed.

     

    I didn't order the fronts yet because I wanted to see if the rear would go up or down with these, first. It did settle down slightly and is now totally level with no rake. It also rides 10x smoother compared to the stocks being compressed all the time.

     

    Now the (stock) fronts feel too stiff.

  3. Thanks for all the info guys. Based on this, I'm ordering:

    EDL-33024 front (Tahoe/Suburban/Avalanche 2wd/4wd)

    EDL-34023 Rears (For 99-2005 2WD 1500s Lowered 4" in the Rear)

     

    My 4x4 is lowered w/2" spindles and cranked down 2" more up front; 4" drop shackle -2" 4x4 block spacer.

     

    The load up front of my CC is more like that of an SUV and a 2wd rear just has less travel, not less capacity. A half ton is a half ton.

     

    If tow/haul ever becomes an issue I'll just slap in helper bags.

     

    Thanks again!

  4. You guys running nitrous on a non supercharged engine can run a reverse IAT adder table as well. You can make it so that when you spray, the IAT' table will pull a couple of * even though it is getting colder (typically you add * as the IATs get colder). I haven't sprayed before so this is assuming that the IATs go way colder than ambient on a shot. This would allow you to run full timing when not spraying and the PCM can do its job with out a reflash or a resistor and operate safely. :dunno: Should be pretty easy to figure out, a couple of logs when running spray and a couple of logs running N/A. You can scale the IAT adder table linear off that.

     

    Just shooting out some info...

     

    I only dropped 5' IAT on a 100 dry shot at 900psi. You can also play around with nozzle direction/distance relative to the MAF to influence A/F. It's better to let the MAF go a little rich anyway to avoid KR and sacrifice power while spraying.

    I'm just running 4' less timing all the time now while NA + the colder TR6's. Overall, my mpg has increased 10%, there's no knock and no concerns of detonation, just playing it safe.

     

    And yeah, superchargers with nitrous are a lethal combination. Make sure the heads are torqued down!

  5. Just based on the replies you're still a bunch of sick pups!

    ITSJAC is exaclty what I was wondering about; putting up your own girl in teh sig. Killer attitude on her BTW!

    Yeah, I'll use Wifey for a sig pic if anyone around here can make that happen using some pix.

    dirty, dirty bowtie pigs!

     

    Anyone else exploiting his chick around here?

    :)

  6. Hands down, there's more sig pix on this board with insane chix than any other board I've seen! What gives?

    Someone around here is poaching swimsuit sites or something... It's hilarious!

     

    Who's actually pimpin' his own girl? Anyone???

     

    And, if there's a "sig guru" around here, I'd like to have one done with my own women! My wife's a former swimsuit model herself and was just looking over my shoulder saying, "If those are their girls, I want to see what these guys look like!"

     

    LOL!

  7. Rausch- There's two trucks around here that have done L92 heads and L76 intakes. Neither one has nailed down their tuning yet and aren't running right. Both went with big cams and 480 trannys at the same time.

     

    The heads are a great value for the what you pay/flow you get but you might want to be careful as to how much cam you choose. Don't grow too big too fast, based on what's been happening.

     

    There are plenty of proven options available to make power without being the guinea pig. In the end, it's still just a H/C/I swap.

  8. Zippy,

     

    Assuming that he's having some tranny problems, what do you suggest for a remedy? Those symptoms sound familiar.

     

    Mine behaved alot like that at the drags last summer. Then it began slipping sometimes and got an occassional clunk. This weekend it locked up under load, broke the driveshaft and transfer case.

     

    Hate to see an ounce of prevention turn into a ton of repair!

  9. Fantastic example of a man who gets it!

    F*cking inspiration to all men who've ever been demoralized by a woman!

    It's all so true!

     

    Too bad it takes the trama of seperation and divorce for so many guys to remember that chix actually dig 'em all along and it's funner to play the field.

     

    Love it! LOVE IT!

  10. This thread's duplicated and I posted this in the other... hate for the soldier to miss my thought

     

    MRFKN sandrats!

     

    They otta be fighting their damn civil war with each other and thanking our troops for policing it. But, they're so ghetto that they're ambushing our boys and girls. That kinda news makes my proud American blood boil!

     

    Anyway you, my friend, and the rest of the men and women over there are NOT FORGOTTEN! We'd all bring you home today if we could. Let's hope the next executive branch starts at it day1 !

     

    Until then. make us proud and sing "God Bless America" at the top of your lungs while you defend our honor and teach those rats they just picked a fight with the wrong crew!

     

    Forget? NFW!

     

    Rock on American soldier!

    Rock on!

  12. I like it alot. It lopes pretty good, and it really came alive after the heads were done and pacesetters installed. It did like 383rwhp cam & heads, so that's not too bad.

     

    is that 383 w/ or w/o that Radix?
