    Do I Have Heavy Duty Brakes?

    Hydroboost was only for the 2500 and up back then. The 1500 brakes, as I recall, are the same front rotor setup on each package, but the rear rotors have a dual piston caliper on the 7200 lb-rated. On Suburbans/Yukons the non tow pack had disks in the rear with a single piston caliper...

    Control arms, OEM vs aftermarket

    The moog lower control arms I bought for my 06 Accord looked like they were for a 2500 pickup truck. If you plan to keep the car this I want I would do; buy aftermarket, swap them, then replace the bushings with OEM in the old arms at your convenience.

    Dropped the oil pan and found some bits- need help identifying (BMW M5 (F10) at 39k miles)

    5.7 Hemi spark plug question

    I'd run coppers so I have an excuse to change them sooner...also watch your oil consumption. Could have easily scored a bore when that dropped off.
