  1. My 2 cents. I installed the Power Stop Z36 pads and rotors all around about 3 months ago. I did the correct break in procedure and they feel ok. Not great but just adequate enough to get the job done. I got them on sale so it was tough to pass them up. If I did it all over I would probably go the PPV route with stock or PPV pads. I have towed with them several times but I havent noticed and performance difference.
  2. Chalk up another AC down thanks to the condenser issue. I read all of the pages of this thread to make sure i not missing out on any info. Im at 73k on my 2014 and of course out of warranty as of 1/1/2020. Im not going to fight with the dealer, not worth the time of effort. Someone posted what Ive found to be the best replacement (literature wise) so far so I ordered it from rockauto today. It arrives sometime thursday so hopeful to have it up and blowing cold again friday afternoon. Heres the info on the condenser. http://www.gpdtechtips.com/techtip77.html I also ordered a high pressure hose as Ive seen a few people say these are failing sometimes too. GPD sells one on rockauto that is steel and not aluminium so hopefully itll hold up. GPD also has a seal/oring kit that I bought too since people are saying to replace the seals on the low/high pressure lines when reinstalling everything.
  3. 5/4/19 2014 Silverado 1500 5.3 60894 4934 on oil, 38% on OLM Amsoil sig series 0w-20 out and back in Wix filter 10255 installed Only running e85 and sending oil out for my engines first oil analysis.
  4. I have a 2014 with McG spindles and didnt have to modify anything to run my factory 20's. When I installed them I believe they said anything lower than 17's would require you to cut the balljoint stud. I definitely had enough room to go down to a 17".
  5. Vled vs. Amazon cheaply comparison. Also the amazon leds burned out within a month on one of the bulbs. Vleds on the left.
  6. Again vleds on the driver side.
  7. Swapped out my amazon leds with vleds. Vleds are on the driver side. Much brighter than the cheap ones. Both are switchbacks.
  8. Only pulling the blocks on a crew cab isnt a drastic difference in looks or ride quality. Most people wont even notice the difference in looks or ride. Now going from lifted to no blocks may improve the ride but stock to no blocks isnt noticable IMO.
  9. you mind giving some details on which tie downs those are? i didnt realize our trucks has areas dedicated for those lol. i could have used those for years.
  10. Thanks! I take it you bass fish too.
  11. Thanks! LOL yea that was pretty funny. That poor little bulldog was quick though. He wanted no part of that longhorn.
  12. Sorry for multiple posts, the 4mb limit kills me.
  13. Took the black dip off the grill and did paint correction, sealed, and waxed the truck today.
  14. The cold weather squeaks are annoying but normal. My truck always does it ones it below 40. I think it's either the front shocks or the bushings on the control arms.
