    2005 Silverado driveline vibration?

    No sir, discs on front drums on back. I will check the ujoints in shaft though, hopefully that's it, but that's usually not how my luck goes Lol. If a man were to replace the u joints in the driveshaft, what joints would be recommended? Plain ole basic $35 Spicer joints, or opt for some of the...

    2005 Silverado driveline vibration?

    Yeah, went back to stock wheels and some Federal tires. First I sold the black wheels and tires, and put on a set of stock wheels and wore out all terrains until new tires came in. So I have had the old black wheels and mud tires, stock wheels and wore out at's, and now stock wheels and new...

    2005 Silverado driveline vibration?

    Good info Nick, thanks. Also, hope everything is well up your way. I have not checked fluid in either diff or in t-case, as there are no leaks. I might end up changing u joints in rear drive shaft and see. Worst case, I eliminate those being a problem for a long time even if they don't fix it...

    2005 Silverado driveline vibration?

    I know several of you have had these trucks and I'm wondering if any of you have ran into the same vibration issue and figured out what it was. Getting an annoying, significant vibration that I thought for a long time was to blame on "big ole mud tires" being hard to get balanced. But after...

    2005 Silverado re-gear question

    So much gayness. Might as well had posted a video of two 70 year old paw paws jerking each other off while watching Gunsmoke.

    What it really needs is some GD turf mode installed! Sumbitch'd dig then!

    2005 Silverado re-gear question

    Yep, I agree. I don't enjoy driving this truck as it sits now either, because of the poorly balanced tires. I'm going to get them rebalanced this week or the next and if that dont fix it, they are coming off and getting replaced with some all terrains. Almost wish I'd never put either the wheels...

    2005 Silverado re-gear question

    Regearing will be last resort, as I really don't want to dedicate the time to working on it. My free time is sparse and both my bikes need worked on too. Lol. Hoping a plug and play tuner really helps. That's likely the first route I go.

    2005 Silverado re-gear question

    It's currently for sale, but has 200k miles on it now. Lol. If I got another one it would be a newer body style anyways. I dont drive the truck much, so kinda dumb to invest more in another truck. Maybe a tune will wake up my old white beast up and it will suffice for a long time.

    2005 Silverado re-gear question

    You mean I would have to regear both ends?! Fawk, I'm definitely not doing it now.... Yes that was $300ish per end for Yukon gears and then another $130 per end for master rebuild kits. So nearly $900 just in parts. Motive gears were a little less than $200 per end, but I'm gonna try a tune...

    That's a terrible idea.

    2005 Silverado re-gear question

    You bring up a very good point to compare. I had the 2007 FJ Cruiser before this truck, with exactly the same size tires 295/70/17 Nitto Trail Grapplers and aftermarket wheels, and pulled the same trailer with my old Polaris Ranger on it. So I pulled the trailer/Ranger with both the FJ and my...

    2005 Silverado re-gear question

    Atsrite! So do you leave it in sport mode even when towing something? I was watching a youtube vid on the Predator 2 tuner on a 2015 silverado and it had a Diablo Tow Tune available on it. I know thats a newer truck than mine, but the same tuner is listed for use in the whole year model range of...

    2005 Silverado re-gear question

    Also, which black bear route did you go? Did you do the data logging where you drove around with their junk plugged into your truck then send the pcm back to them to tune it (or however it works)? I've been looking at them, looked at them back in the day for my old truck too, but got a good...

    2005 Silverado re-gear question

    The mesh ones create bad wind resistance? I wouldn't have thought they made much of a difference. Either way, I don't want to remove it, its way too handy. I also have a few yards to keep mowed so I haul my mower on this trailer all summer and don't want to lose the gate.

    2005 Silverado re-gear question

    Amazing I get the "run smaller tires" and "slow down" advice from you buncha heathens! Y'all sound like a buncha old wimmens! Lol Trailer has tailgate but it is mesh, so very little wind resistance. I think I read somewhere that torque management wouldn't let the throttle body open all the way...
