This is my UA-cam channel. Mostly what will be uploaded is truck exhaust videos, some quadding and dirt biking, and random other life events for family. Check the favorites for lots of interesting car & truck, funny, stupid, informative vids I find interesting.
It is finally time, to build this car.
2 years is a long time between uploads. too long I fact. A lot has happened, and it has been good. This winter I decided to overhaul my Trans Am's engine! It is all done now, and I filmed a good bit of it. Stay tuned!

Changing my Duramax's Rear Brakes.
Переглядів 8642 роки тому
Well, it was time for brake pads in the rear. After discovering that the passenger side wasn't grabbing much at all, I decided to overhaul the whole back half and do it fresh. It stops great, can definitely be done in a day, if you don't have kids, maybe a couple hours LOL! Please subscribe!

2021 Wrap Up, Big Burn-outs!
Переглядів 2952 роки тому
2021 wasn't a bad car year. I got two clean trucks, and the Trans Am got the line-lock, and Tick Performance master cyl. Looking forward to what is to come for 2022! A Corsa Sport cat-back for the Silverado SS, Koni shocks with UMI springs, and definitely tires for the Trans Am as of now. Heads/Cam work possibly! Please subscribe!
Installing a Transfer Case Shift Motor to an '01/'06 2500HD.
Переглядів 4,9 тис.2 роки тому
I got a Service 4WD light on my 2007 Classic 2500HD and 4WD was inoperable. After getting it scanned it was deemed a bad shift motor, common problem with GMT-800s. Swapping it out was a breeze! I would highly suggest buying it local however. I ordered from RockAuto under my truck description and was sent one for a 1500 w/ auto 4wd. GM/AcDelco no longer manfactures this part OEM.

Trans Am gets Tick Master Cyl & a Line-Lock!
Переглядів 3592 роки тому
Two things I have been anxious to do for a couple years. I had an SJM Performance line-lock installed, along with a Tick Performance Adjustable Master Cyl. Line lock did just what it does, easier burn-outs. Master Cyl took care of my difficult 3rd gear engagement under wide open throttle. Also had a transmission service done for good maintenance, Amsoil Syncromesh fluid. Big thanks to C-Pop Aut...

I sold my '04 Silverado..
Переглядів 6412 роки тому
Well, I didn't think I would sell my trusty '04 Silverado, but I did! A friend bought it so it is still around. All of the revamping to this truck over the last 3 years I really did build a good connection to it. I sort of regret letting it go, but it isn't like I could keep it forever. If I could have I would have kept it for my son's first vehicle. This truck drove me to my oilfield job and b...
Duramax gets V-LEDs V6 Triton Switchbacks, Interior Dome Lighting! & Fleece All-Lights-On!
Переглядів 7902 роки тому
One of my favorite enhancements to do is lighting. I never spent the money on the V-LED V6 Triton kits before but after just having this single kit I am a complete believer. What a great improvement! I definitely did not expect such an improvement inside. Very very worth while! This is not a sponsored video by any means. I purchased all products listed below directly from manufacturers myself. ...

A lot of big changes coming! I sold the F-150 in December 2020. This was out of the3 blue but a pondered thought for awhile. I do wish I held out for summer 2021 for the higher used prices lol. It went go a good friend of mine who needed it more than me. It was a great truck! Please subscribe!

Back from the dead with a video I have been working on for a little while. Updating the Trans Am brakes. Not a direct step-by-step install, but everything is in order of what I did. I changed the OEM lines out for Russell braided lines as well as a full system bleed. This car stops excellent! Looking forward to doing more!

'04 Silverado gets new wheel bearings, & rear brakes!
My 03 F250 5.4 does the same thing. I was afraid the lifters were going out. Guess now it’s time for new exhaust manifold and piping
Great video bro
That didn't fix my problem it just made it worse on my 2004 Silverado. It went from a hyperflash problem to the front turns light up but don't flash. And the rears flash but it doesn't flash very bright.
You know he’s a pro when he is putting in “other proper supporting parts”
Hahaha. I wanted to go cam only, but it ended up being a whole top end, minus intake manifold. Ported 243 heads, btr red hot cam, Johnson lifters, btr trunnion kit, btr pushroads, ls2 timing chain, melling oil pump. Racetronix 42# injectors, racetronix 255lph fuel pump & hotwire kit. $5,000 well spent.
manual or automatic? i have owned 2 f body cars. 1989 camaro RS 305 (i swapped for a 350 TBI) and a 1996 Z28. both were automatics. i currently have a toy, 2003 bonneville SSEi, i really enjoy it but someday i might buy another F body. if i ever did, it would have to be a manual. im sick of everything being an automatic. 3 pedals are so much more fun to drive.
T56. Only way I was going to buy one haha. I love it man, 6spd is the way to go for certainly!
@@DarrenWS6 i have a 6 speed subaru crosstrek..... i know it's a crosstrek but that's how i ordered it new. i had a choice, you cant get them that way anymore. it's a 2022, it's what i drive in the winter so im not ruining cool cars like my SSEi
Hi I am looking forward to next video. Nice to see you back from Carlos.
Thank you Carlos!
Hello!
Yelp that's how it sounds.
Is 2wd or 4wd
4wd.
I had the Cobalt SS on both Nfs Pro Street and Most Wanter, first version. Its a fast ride.
Thanks 🙏
Very nice brother
Glad to see I’m not the only one who painted the ugly faded A frame on there classic Silverado , beautiful job by the way truck looks bad ass 😮
Thanks man. Yeah I can't stand seeing the radiator A-frame exposed like that lol.
@@DarrenWS6 same lol
Ford 💪💪
2003 ford f 150 mirror caps
Just picked up a Z28 and noticed it needed new brakes and might aswell put some new rotors aswell, I was looking on summit for some and didn’t know how good those power stops were, now I thinking I might just go ahead and GET EM
4yrs later they are still doing me great.
@@DarrenWS6 Good haha, just ordered a set after I commented haha
Just did this on my 99 bubble eye new headlight was popping out of place 5 min fix
Ya that sounds like Total shit. Those super 44's with race cats and no resonaters give that "clap clap clap" type of drone or reversion. I hate it. In my opinion flow master are great on old big block muscle cars with high compression, headers. That sorta thing. But on a modern vehicle they just don't sound nice. I do wonder if an x or h pipe included in system would get rid of those unwanted sounds and effects? The 40 series are much better but quiet with cats. Not sure on the delta 40'a tho
What clips to hold on the grill caps
It sounds like it tones down the higher frequencies and keeps the bassier frequencies
Lmao I I’m late af. But I just changed my lights and the headlight bracket disintegrated 😂and did exactly what you did until the new ones arrive
It works lol.
I know this was 5 years ago. But those 3 fins, are heatsink. It helps to pull the heat away from the led diodes. And get warm between 86-100 degrees Fahrenheit. Which is very nice and cool side actually. These are built to last
Neat. I did end up using them in 2 other trucks lol. I now go for the V-LEDs 50 led 3156 reverse bulb for DRLs. Very bright and clean.
Does this also flush the ABS module?
It isn't functioning it. However, the rear single brake line is coming from the ABS module, I want to say you are exchanging old fluid with new within the module.
You need better exhaust tips
This truck has been gone since 2011 haha.
360 seems low for those upgrades
I feel it's pretty good. Having 853 heads and such. There are cammed cars running only 20/30 more horsepower than me. With a good cam, and a set of 220 heads, 42# injectors, I feel this will be 430/450rwhp.
Dynos are for tuning anyway, who cares. If you add a cam with 225-235 .600 lift 112-114 LSA and STOCK 243 heads you'll be 420-440. This is the route I went as once you get into full LS1 builds now, it's almost just cheaper to get a 6.0 and LS3 heads and a cam and have 480-500
Web Link to the grille?
It's a stock 2006 truck grill, search up that year and it should show up quick.
@@DarrenWS6 10/4 I got a 05 duramax with the same grille and it was spray painted black and looks horrible and I wanna replace it with a new chrome one my main thing is how to replace my wing inserts between the headlights I can’t find any vids of the removal process
@@ashtonmuglach7298 the wing pieces GM was ignorant about. They are plastic melted on via tabs in the back. I did my best to do the one I had to, but I masked and painted the existing one.
If anyone thinks that there's any difference in sound. They're deaf LOL
Nice truck!
How did you get everything to sit so flush
Truck sounds dope AF....plenty loud and sounds like it's supposed to !!! Hate other trucks with factory manifolds and straight pipes those sound like total crap
Do I need to bleed abs module?
No, it bleeds through it.
I remember this car from NFS Most Wanted 2005
That's really unique and very good
Did you also put a 06 hood on?
Yep, I put that on first, and still ran the 03/05 grill.
Before cracking the bleeder screw, try to slightly tighten before trying to remove the bleeder screw. This often Leeds to success without cracking it off.
What series manaflow you go with
These were the 11" long oval case style.
Mine dose a little but as bad, thanks for the video, wasn’t sure if o was having some sort of engine issues or not
Nothing like that deep burley sound
As a kid i used to watch the vidja ALL the time.
I regret getting rid of it every day man. I have had 4 cateyes since. I learned a year ago by searching the vin # that this truck was scrapped in April 2020 at a Cleveland Ohio salvage yard. Bums me out.
your still able to use cruise control right?
Yes.
do you think you can help me find the front ones that you got? i tried finding them but they have the wrong upper mount. i need the stem like yours
i have fought three hours or better i have a 2006 gm1500 4 wheel drive 5.3 and i’m at a stand still cut the old pipes out with a saws all and now the truck is just sitting
What has you at a stand still exactly? Manifold bolts breaking? I cut my Y with zero intent to re-use it. Cut it to where I could put a band clamp on it if re-use was ever desired. Putting the headers in was pretty decent. They went through from under neath.
did you come up from the bottom
Sounds awesome bet if it had a tune to clean up the drive by wire lag and some timing to make it rev faster I’d sound like a full race car
So they are just lazy motors .....
Wat spray bottle did you use
If you mean the aerosol products, they are listed in the description.
missing your bump stop
Does starting system fault mean its the run start relay ?
I am not fully sure. But it was discovered that there was chewed wires in the main harness in my case
🤘🏾🤘🏾
I have same problem did you fix it
I had chewed up wires. Turned it into insurance.
