Lots of guys have been burned by that test. Best way is to jack it up and spin both sides. If you can't tell the difference, may need a mechanic's stethoscope or use a long screwdriver to your...
Completely agree with educating the customer. To this day, with my driveway customers, I do the same thing. I have one female customer that hated being asked questions because she felt that I was...
Central to this approach is the importance of an educated customer. I have always found that in order to truly provide good customer service you need to have a good customer. And that starts with...
When I ran shops and needed to get the story behind the vehicle problem, the first thing I always did was ask the driver that drives the vehicle the most and/or experiences the problem the most...
Ah man, happens to all of us. Too bad I'm so far as I would have snatched up that body. Mine has the rust cancer and getting worse but mechanically in great shape. Also love the white.
Hope it...
Sadly I had to let my 2006 Trailblazer go. I was wanting to rebuild it but haven't had the time or money to do an engine and transmission rebuild.

Never mind, I used what I have and fed them through the plastic harness tubing of the mirror cable. I'll leave the two spares for the folding motor coiled up and taped out of the way until I need...
Went to hit the couch for a nap earlier today and found this little guy beneath one of the pillows. It is a bark scorpion and they have one hell of a nasty sting; not fatal (unless you are...
yes.... the amount of vacuum being pulled thru the "metered orifice" on the other side may not be enough to over come the "fresh air intake" at the resonator. I probably need to cap the barb...
You might not get an actual vacuum in the crankcase as there is the other end of that system, which is the hose between the valve cover and the resonator. And because of blowby, this also results...
Moving the brake booster vacuum hose out of the way gives you a bit more room to work and is easy to do.
The plastic barb is, hopefully, tougher than you think. I say hopefully because you never...
The Bravada you would talk about in the Member Builds. The Corvair, should be in the Off-Topic Discussion or Hobby Corner section.
Both of those are nice.

Yea, "GMT" covers a large range of vehicles/trucks. My girl, Linda, owns a 2002 78k miles GMT360 Trailblazer and I own a GMT800 2005 Tahoe Z71. That is the newest I would own. I belong to a forum...
Had a call earlier today from my old boss in Lenexa, Ks. Last place I ran a shop at before I moved here in 1995. Lenexa, is in Johnson County, Ks. and just across the state line from KC, Mo. He is...
I see that for ALL makes and models, not just GMT360 products.
I also see a general category called Community Lounge which is probably what I was looking for.
I guess I only ever go to the...
Clicking means the actuator's internal gears are skipping and possibly broken. I can't see the big white gear doing this. Make sure which actuator is doing it. Could be another actuator that...
And SOLVED! it is :biggrin: . It requires a Mod to change it.
Yeah, we know the forum's search function blows. That's why we suggest using Google's "site:" search function. You would would use...
