03CHEV SS

Mr. P I think the small bolt I descibing is the cross bolt for the main caps. As for the other bolt I'm still unsure. The freeze plugs are they like the old style you drive in or is it threaded in. Fireman 31 I'm 100% sure its not oil as I did the old taste test on the drip. I know for sure its not p/s fluid or the eng. oil. I will try and go get one of those adapters to pressure test the coolant system and maybe talk to mechanic. What about putting stop leak in the coolant system!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I think I will put some dye in the coolant also to but for sure its coolant.

Ok I know its not coming from the water pump weap hole as it is dry in that area. There is a external bolt that can be loosened by a allen wrench what passage is it blocking? Also there is a 10mm bolt directly above the oil pan that is recessed in the block alittle what does it go into? This is all on the front drivers side of the block in the area of my leak?? Normally i would have pressure tested it but i don't have the correct cap to go onto the radiator tank. I have the old style that goes onto the radiator. Thanks and keep the suggestion coming. Oh would it hurt to put some stop leak in it. Don't bash me on this I know first it right the first time. I'm also think of putting some dye in it.

If its any consulation my tuck does the same thing. What I been thinking is that its the transfer case chain is getting some slop in it causing the clunking sound. I have around 80,000 miles on mine.

I did a search and found some things but not related to mine. The coolant is dripping off the very first front bolt on the drivers side of the side of the oil pan. Its coming down from anywhere i've wiped and cleaned and its coming out of that bolt. Does that bolt go into a coolant passage!!!!!! Its dripping down on the steering cross shaft and while driving it blowing back on the pumpkin of the front end pass. side half of the front end. It not bad haven't had to add any coolant. I thought maybe it was power steering and did the taste and its not p/s fluid. During the search it did I checked the exhaust bolts and their is like a plug on the side of the block about mid way up and its not leaking. I'm 100% sure well 99.5% sure its coming out of that dam bolt that holds the oil pan on. I don't know enough about these motors to know for sure. So any help would be appreciated. Thanks

In Jan. 07 my Alt. guite charging according the gauges. So i took it off and took it to Autozone and it showed it was charging. I decided to get the new Alt. and they told me I could bring it back if it wasn't the problem so I said OK. Well it was the problem my old Alt., even though it check OK. So I quess I saying even if it checks OK you might try a new Alt.

Left work last night and went to turn A/C on and at the same time the radio went to squealing really load. I though something with radio station well I look down at the cluster and everything is like the truck is turn off,windows dont work,seat will not move,a/c dont work,interior lights dont work,and service air bag light is on. I thinking what the hell is going on. I stop turn truck off and everything starts to work well and soon as I give it gas everything quites. So I start to drive and have a few stop light in between and everything starts working and I notice when it gets over 1200rpm everything quites. Get close to home and low battery voltage lights comes on but when I slow down everything starts to work the volt meter is pegged at 16 volts. Well get home go to hook up battery tester I can smell acid like its frying the battery and sure enough its reading 16 volts. I replaced this Alt. in Jan 07 from Autozone. I call them and they have one. I asked them if they were liable for any damages done to the truck during this little episode and he really didn't know what to say. I told him I'll be back if there was any problems and he's like OK. Well put the new Alt. on and everything is OK think god. Just wanted to post this so if anything like this happens to anybody else.

If I was to put a TB TC in my SS what would the stall speed of the TC be. I did some searching and didn't see them #'s I don't think. I did see to use the TC from a TB with a 6 cyl. not the SS one. Thanks

I have stock rims on my truck and was wondering what would be the biggest tire I can put on the rim. It has 275/55/20 now. I was thinking about going alittle wider on the tire and not necessarily lower (sidewalls) but maybe alittle. Any thoughts!!! Thanks
