07 silverado 1500 with 7.5” RC lift

I’ve discovered recently that my cv joints are on a steep angle causing them to clunking and wear down. So i read into it and alot of others have this problem with these lifts. Could anyone provide the list of parts to decrease this angle on the cv’s and fix the binding issue.

Cheers

  And overpriced. I was in the Oshawa Truck Plant when they were being built. Very few. I could count on one hand how many I've seen since

  The 10L90 was used in high horsepower cars and SUVs (higher HP/torque version of 10L80). The HD trucks have the 10L1000 which was co-developed with Allison and is not related to the 10L80/90 which was co-developed with Ford. The 10L1000 replaced the 6L90 used with gas HD trucks in the current generation of the HD trucks.

  I have the 10L80 gas transmission. It rides at 145 or just a tad higher in the heat. Haven't towed with it yet. Both of my trailers are lightweight, 900 - 1500lbs empty, so I won't be pulling a whole lot of weight with it when I do pull them. But given this statement, "Ideal temps for automatic transmissions to do their job the best is 175-220F", what does that mean for our gasser trannies? Are they not operating at ideal temp? Or do those temps only apply to the 10L90 on the HD trucks?

  At a certain point(maybe not now for you), i just replace them with an OEM part. My opinion is that it will pay for itself in better fuel economy than relying on one that got cleaned with a spray.
