  1. I would start with doing a voltage drop test at the starter and your grounds, as you might have some resistance that maybe be affected by the cold weather. Check all your ground connections for corrosion too.
  2. Thanks, newdude! That is good information! All the responses here were exactly what I was looking and hoping for. Folks like you, bigblockburban4, redvett, and many others like you are what makes this forum so incredible. I will definitely do my best to help out others too in anyway I can, but I really appreciate all your responses. If I come across anything interesting, useful, or unusual regarding my current work on my truck's suspension/alignment, I'll be sure to share it here. Thanks so much!
  3. Thanks, redvett! Good point you make about getting those bolts before going to the alignment shop. I'll order some ASAP. I suppose someone could have easily stolen mine since they're easily accessible, just seems like an odd thing someone would steal. But then again, people steal all sorts of things all the time, so I wouldn't be surprised.
  4. Yeah, seemed a little odd to me too, that's why I was asking the question here. I wonder if Chevy forgot, or just decided it didn't need them. Thanks again for sharing your perspective.
  5. Thank you for responding, BigBlock. My truck is all 100% stock, bought it new. No mods whatsoever. It's got 167K miles on it, and luckily only had to replace fuel pump twice and an alternator once. It's even on its stock brakes! I never noticed until now that there are no adjustment bolts in place for the torsion bars. The front is slightly lower than the rear, but it doesn't look abnormal. And it rides pretty stiff, but not too uncomfortably. I am actually finally replacing all the front-end suspension components - Pitman Arm, Idler Arm, Upper Control Arms, Lower Ball Joints, and Inner & outer tie rods, that's when I noticed there were no bolts there for the torsion bars. But once all that is done, I will be getting an alignment, so I will be interested in what they say about it. Thanks again!
  6. I have the same year Silverado. I would remove ALL the ground connections and clean them up really well. Please let us know how it goes.
  7. My 2003 Chevy Silverado 1500 HD 2WD looks like it never had an adjustment bolt for either of the torsion bars. Has anyone ever seen or heard of that? The key with the treaded hole is there, but looks like there was never a bolt in it. It was like that from factory.
