I drove an '01 GMC 1500 tonight and I actually really liked it. (3" BL 33's) The power band feels strange but it was a solid enough truck. I can't believe I'm saying it but I think I'd own one. (I HATE new GM.)
Oh okay. Well I need to replace my u-joints anyways so I just need to measure the outer diameter of the needle bearing caps so I can figure out what u-joints I need to buy.
if you still hear it after that then we will talk about more serious reprocussions.
Got the passenger side done... An eraser wheel would have made this job so much easier I just didn't see the need to spend 40$ on one... Got two blistered thumbs but hey it's done! I sprayed the adhesive down with goo-gone, used a hair dryer and rolled the adhesive with my thumbs didn't take long but it's taxing. Used a medium polishing compound to buff out the dirt. All in all the job took about 2-3hours taking my time.
The last thing I should add is I used 50lb fishing line to cut the tape behind the moulding, I personally don't reccomend grabbing the moulding and ripping it off especially if you have a white truck knowing that the white factory paint has a defect that causes it to come alose from the primer coat.
is it a regular systematic squeak or how does it sound when you speed up or slow down
I've only noticed it at lower speeds below 40 mph when I pass a wall or solid object solid enough to reflect the sound of it. It's from I can tell pretty regular and I can't or haven't been able to tell anything of it when I speed up or slow down besides it speeds up and slows down with the vehicle speed
