    Tow-Rig - 2003 Silverado 1500HD - Quadrasteer

    It might be, but I haven't tried yet. I planned on leaving it with a little rake, but not the 4" of rake it currently has. Yeah, I'm aware it could change angles. I'll pay attention when doing it. The drop is adjustable 1"-3" so I can play around with it a bit.

    Tow-Rig - 2003 Silverado 1500HD - Quadrasteer

    Idk, the wheel gap really bugs me. I'm never going to offroad it since its 2WD, so I think I'm going to lower the rear a little and see how it does. I don't want to slam it, but being lower and level-ish will be good enough for my purposes

    Tow-Rig - 2003 Silverado 1500HD - Quadrasteer

    Welp, fingers cross oil pressure is ACTUALLY good. The sensor is bad. Its pegged max even engine off. I thought it might just be high until warm, but didnt notice it was max when not running. Looked at it in HPTuners and its reading 130psi (gauge goes to 80) no matter what. New sending unit on...

    Let see how effective it is and how good it looks first lol

    Yep, thats exactly the plan. I have 7" fans that will go in there. They'roughly 2.5" thick, so there's plenty of room to feed them air. Plus it will guard the fins a bit

    @Traé yes is does function. I will keep that in mind, thank you. Started a different thread for the truck: https://dfkitcar.com/forum/index.php?threads/tow-rig-2003-silverado-1500hd-quadrasteer.4989/ Ok! Back on topic! I've made a little progress on the heat exchanger side pods in between...

    Tow-Rig - 2003 Silverado 1500HD - Quadrasteer

    Starting a separate post as to not clog up my build thread with more truck stuff. This is my new (to me) 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500HD. 6.0L, 4L80E, and (working) quadrasteer! Its from Texas so its mostly rust free. Looking forward to modifying this to eventually make it my DD and replace my...

    Maybe I should make this a new thread after all :)

    So I assume the process to get it to not burn oil is hone and re-ring?

    186K. It has great oil pressure, so who knows. Didn't really care when buying it since I'm obviously not afraid to tear down an engine lol. My buddy has the same truck, same year and it has over 300k on stock pretty much everything. Its just now starting to leak out the rear main a bit. Very...

    Maybe it makes a difference that where I live stop and it traffic isn't really a thing lol. I got stuck on 75 the day of the eclipse and traffic was horrendous. Then I truely hated it lol. I actually ended up putting it in 4LO for a bit so I could idle in first at like 0.5mph LOL Yeah the...

    I take quite a lot of pride in being a millennial that only drives manual lol. I don't know if I can bring myself to do it. If I keep the Tacoma (manual) and just use this as a tow rig, I might be able to justify it. If I make it my DD/tow rig as was the intent, I'll probably manual swap it...

    Oh, forgot to mention too. I'm about 50/50 on manual swapping it with an NV4500. I haven't ever owned an automatic vehicle, so I'll probably get bored of this and swap it lol
