Licking, Missouri, United States
O.K. Here's the story on this one. I was needing a vehicle and didn't have a lot of money so I worked a trade for this truck. I traded a Savage model 110 25-06 with 500 rnds of ammo, and a CZ83 .380 acp with 200 rnds of ammo for it. I didn't know the vehicle had a salvage title until I took possession. The person I got it from assured me that it was dependable and never failed to start and drive. I took the vehicle home and realized that the truck had no heat. I ordered a radiator for the truck, but before it came in, the cv joints went bad. I had the complete half shafts replaced. Two days later, the starter messed up and I bought a rebuilt starter for it. The radiator came in and I replaced the radiator. As I was taking the old radiator out, I noticed that there was a lot of red clay deposits in the cooling system so I flushed the engine out and replaced the thermostat. When I got the new radiator in, the transmission decided to start failing. I replaced the transmission filter and gasket and put 10 quarts of fluid to get the level back to normal. This didn't help and the transmission shifts slowly thru the forward gears and doesn't work in reverse. This happened immediately after changing the radiator so I don't know if that had something to do with it. I am tired of having to climb under this vehicle every other day in this cold weather so I am extending this project on to you. Total cost so far:
2 guns and ammo: $1700.00 Tires, pitman arm, idler arm, and sway bar kit: $1154.05 Starter: $50.00 Tailgate: $50.00 Radiator: $70.00 Half shafts (2): $294.79 Total Investment: $3319.00 |

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
GM applies for LT5, LTX trademarks... are new small block variants coming?
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Recently discovered General Motors trademark applications for LT4, LT5, LT88 and LTX have observers wondering what kind of high-performance offerings could be on their way. A new LT4 would mark a return of the engine designation first used on the Corvette Grand Sport, SLP Pontiac Firehawk and SLP Chevrolet Camaro SS from 1996 and 1997. Supposition at Corvette Forum - which provided advance intel on the C7 like these leaked images - believes a new LT4 could go into the high-performance trim of the next-gen, 2015 Camaro that would be more powerful than the 580-horsepower Camaro ZL1.
Seeing an LT5 again would also be déjà vu - in its former life it was a 5.7-liter V8 for the C4 Corvette ZR-1 from 1990-1994 designed by Lotus, producing from 370 hp to 405 hp. A mix of rumor and hope is that the new LT5 will be a supercharged evolution of the 6.2-liter LT1 (pictured) placed in the new C7 Corvette, and that it will go into the C7 version of the ZR1 pumping out something like 700 hp.
The LTX trademark is, as with that last letter, a complete mystery. If the "X" isn't a generic way to denote the whole LT family, it's wondered if it LTX could refer to a crate motor offering like the LSX.
Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
