SSFatbody Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Hello my name is Kevin, I'm from colorado. I've been a fan of the sss and tbss ever since they came out. I'm looking at purchasing one here by the end of this year if all goes well. I have a 77 k5 that I'm building for off road duty and I currently have a 03 svt focus that is my daily driver. One the focus is sold I will be looking for a sss. Anyone here local to colorado? Also can anyone point me in the right direction...looking for all problem areas with this truck. I have a friend that works as a tech for a gm dealer so I'm familiar with some of them already(intermediate shaft, water pump(not sure if it is on the lq 6.0 though) and mode door actuator). Anyway just thought I'd say hi....here are some pics of my junk(car related hehe). See ya! This is an old pic, after it had been sitting for about a year.

SSFatbody Posted January 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Also what are the known problem areas(if any) with these trucks that I need to be aware of? Are there any tsbs that need to be performed that I should ask the p/o if they have been done? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSThunder Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 known issues..weak trans, instrument cluster, intermediate steering shaft, wheel bearings. i drive mine daily and have had minimal problems; just rolled 110k miles don't forget front diff problems. I thought my front diff was having the known growl issue at 50K miles but I might have been wrong. still going strong at 92K and probably close to 40K of those are super charged miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
