hi everyone. I'm changing a rear axle seal in my truck today. its an open diff. when i removed the locking pin to take the c clip out i rotated the axle and both spider gears fell out of place. i cleaned everything up and re installed the spider gears. my concern is i mixed them up, they look...

with my current set up the atf goes through the cooler in the radiator then the 25 row stacked plate cooler. If i add another 19 row stacked plate cooler after those 2 i wonder if that would lower pressure in the system? the other thing is will all that volume would the trans be starved for...

that's a good point i never thought of that. im starting to wonder if i should be pulling that much with this truck....

Originally Posted by GSCJR I would if it was mine, I don't think it's possible to over cool the fluid. I wanted to add one to my vehicle because I figured it would be beneficial for a CVT (pretty sure I read that here) but, the local transmission shop said it was not necessary if I didn't drive...

thanks everyone. my current cooler is the derale 13960 rated at 46,000 btus per hour. the temp gauge is stock and im assuming the sensor is in the pan area. i will look into a deeper pan the only concern i have is getting it around the exhaust. the one i have now just fits if i remember correctly.

hey everyone. my truck is a 2009 sierra 1500 4.8 vortec 4l60e trans 342 axle ratio. I replaced the stock trans cooler with a big derale stacked plate cooler fan combo. it has worked great and i run the fan when needed. I went and bought a travel trailer that weighs just over 5000 lbs loaded...

thanks everyone. i went ahead and called the parts department at the dealership. gave them my vin # and he said its the 41-162 he said the 110s aren't even listed for my truck not sure what the 2 part numbers are all about. am a bit curious what you dont like about the iridiums das_peikko not...

hi all i have an 09 sierra with the 4.8 vortec. its time for new spark plugs but im a bit confused. acdelco no longer makes the 41-985 plugs ive read their new part number is 41-110 however when i go on the rock auto website it lists 41-162 for my truck. i have done alot of looking online...

they are maxxis at771 p265 70 17. well on the cheap side as i am learning. they were 198.00 each and a different shop sells toyo at2s for 250.00 each. i dont mind paying 250 for a tire. thing is i asked my shop if the maxxis are good tires and they said yes. i didnt ask on a site like this first...

the tires are maxxis at771 p265 70 17. the tire shop is a chain the owner works the front desk. ive never had trouble there before.

no its the rim. both back tires look out of round tho. tire shop wont take responsibility as long as i have steel rims. they could be correct. are alloy wheels better? i allways thought they where best regarding looks and weight. tire shop says they are built better and stay round and true better.

no issues with the street tires i had prior. i jacked up the truck and spun the wheel its about an 1/8 of an inch out. also ordered an aftermarket wheel to replace it. they put it on the balancer and it wasnt perfect they said no point to install it.

yes they have a hunter roadforce balancer. there was over 6 oz of weights on the rim. i bubble balanced it and used 4 oz. its noticeably better now. just not perfect.

i decided to make a new post for this one. its regarding the same truck and my new tires its just more about rims then tire shops. after buying new all terrain tires for my truck i noticed vibration from the back. can feel it in the seat opposed to the steering wheel. went back to the tire...

wow you know the exact tire changer. i want to try that now.
