Yea, It seems even with the new BIG stout driveshaft the u-joints are the weak link. As it should be I suppose. I am lucky to get 2 seasons outta them. I don't hammer the drivetrain either. Always a dead stop before I change gears. But 3 years and less than 30k miles mostly snowplowing or towing. Heck...My 04 just turned 13k miles and its almost 2 yrs. old !!!!!!!!! It makes for a tough life. I LOVE GM warranty service !   That work kills just about ANY brand truck !!!!! But there are guys out there running plows on small rigs like the taco and swear by them being bulletproof !   Just holding out for a new 07 GMT-900 next year !

#698 of 1497 2001 chevy silverado HD 6.0 2500 by crazeewild Sep 29, 2005 (12:06 pm)
I purchased a 2001 chevy silverado HD 2500 and have had it for 2 months. 5 times now it wont start. It turns over fine and acts like it may start but it wont. If i wait about 10 minutes and try restarting it it will start then and be fine until the next time.   Anyone know of what the problem could be??? Any help would be appreciated...   Thanks

See the gold thing that the vacuum line attaches to in the picture. Thats the FPR. Easy to remove.   Relieve pressure to system (open gas tank cap) Remove the vacuum line With some plyers remove the retainer on the FPR Pull the FPR out Put new FPR in Attach retainer Plug vacuum line back in Put gas cap back on   5-10 min job very easy!   Ryan
#700 of 1497 DON"T FORGET TO CHECK IF ITS LEAKING by geo9 Sep 30, 2005 (1:42 am)
Run the truck, Shut it off, Pull off line at rubber connection. If line is WET with gas then the FPR is bad and should be replaced.
#701 of 1497 catback dual exhaust for 04 Z71 Crew Cab by chevymike Sep 30, 2005 (5:23 am)
I am new to the forum and am wondering if anyone can recommend a stainless steel performance exhaust system for my 04 Crew. I had a 90 Silverado that ran straight pipes and it sounded awesome. The problem was I was replacing the pipes every 2 years due to rust (live in upstate NY). My wife thinks I am crazy to pull off the stock stainless, but I am sick of having my neighbor's minivan be louder than my truck. I have looked at Gibson, Magnaflow and Dynomax and want to be sure which one gives the deepest, throaty sound, especially while idling. Heck, I can care less about the mufflers, I'll go straight pipes from the CAT again. I would appreciate any feedback regarding the sound of full systems versus straight pipes only. Also, would I have to remove the spare tire? Thanks for your time. Replies to this message: obyone (Sep 30, 2005 6:15 am)
