swapping in a 6.0 would be way more trouble than its worth for me. The 350 will do me just fine! Simple to work on, engines are cheap, and parts are cheap to. Just wish i had the money laying around to buy it!

I'm about to pull the trigger on a new to me quad. Its lifted and has 30" tires under it. Only 852 miles and 222 hours. Seems really low to me for an 07. He wants 5500 but pretty sure when I wave cash in his face he'll take less

Really not a lot of miles, but the hours are a little high. Its a brute force 750. I'm pretty sure he will take less if I got a fat stack of cash in his face. And prices here in VA, DC and MD are pretty high just because when the economy crashed, we didn't for the most part. I would obviously try and talk him down and check out the quad real good before I do anything.

 

I saw a quad with 2500 miles and he wanted 4200. And then a 650i with 19 hours for 4700. Just depends where you look

 

 

What would you think is a fair price for it? I just looked it up on nadaguides.com and they said anywhere between 4k and 5k. I was gonna offer him 4k, but what do you think is a fair price for it? That is, if everything checks out

Look up built 4L60E's on Google from a reputable shop and see what they do. Mine has a wider 1-2 band and vette servo. I think that's all the guy that rebuilt mine did. Has held up to 35's for over a year and 4.88's for a month in a half, which is a hard launch off every stop and a few burnouts lol

If you're sticking with 33's I'd do 4.56 Sarah, it will have a lot more go and about the same mileage. With 4.56 and a tune it'll be a new truck.

      Differential covers

      By RJL1 · Posted

      I just brought home a 2020 GMC 1500 Denali.  She has 53K miles on her and I want to change out the fluids over the next few weeks.  I see the diff covers don't have drain plugs.  Any suggestions where I can pick up front and rear diff covers with drain plugs?   Thanks,   Bob

      Ac not keeping up

      Well, the dealership got the compressor and installed it. Air at the vents seems nice and cold as it should be. The service manager said the repair has a two year warranty and unlimited mileage. Hopefully I don't have to use it. The dealership i went to was one where I bought my 2014 half ton silverado. In 10 years and 168k miles on the truck anything I needed done and two small recalls they were always very good to me. Not a huge dealer either. I think they treat people well because they want you to come back. I have dealt with a different dealer that was too big to care about an individual. Just my two cents.

      Multigate Connector Difficult to Connect Fully

      By Another JR · Posted

      Hi All, I operate my 2021 3500 SLT most of the time with the tailgate off and in a crate because I have a slide-in camper. However, at least once a year, I take the camper off and put the tailgate back on. Recently I installed the tailgate, but had a hard time getting the connector bail to swing to the fully latched position. The connector seems to fully seat, and everything works, but the bail doesn’t swing to fully latched position.  It swings almost there but stops and I am afraid to push it any harder.    Does anyone have any advice on cleaning or lubrication or anything else I should be doing?  i know how to properly operate the connector. During the time the tailgate and connector are off, i have a double plastic bag over the truck connector secured with rubber bands to keep it clean, but it still had some dust in it this time when I blew it out with compressed air. I didn’t want to spray it with anything other than air without doing some research. Thanks.

      There are a lot of spammer's that do that, quote something and add some commentary to make it seem legit, but modify the quoted text a bunch making sure when posted it's long enough to be "click to expand", and either immediately insert a spam link, or come back after some time and edit it to add the spam link.

      Hello @jaszr2 Do you have a link for the item? I put a replacement bumper on my truck and consequently had to relocate the shutters. I studied on them a while, and figured if you left a couple key blades, you could get most of the airflow with probably no throwing codes.
