I was a GM tech for 3 decades and have always owned GM cars and trucks, there was nothing else we ever even looked at. I worked on so many Duramaxes I just couldn't bring myself to own one too so I said fuck it I'm going to buy something out of my realm, I bought a new F-250 instead and I love...

^^^F-15 is super bitchin!

I could listen to that.

I am so glad we corrected the preload issue on the Tatum hubs I bought, they would have ground themselves to death in short order had we listened to Tatum and just "ran them until they loosen up". That is just a poor excuse from someone who just didn't care. Several years in now with the new...

Care to share what kind of feedback you got from this? I have an HV24 in my car but I must have missed this thread, I love the trans by the way.

This may have been addressed many times in the past but I'm old and I want to hear it again. Does it hurt anything in an HV24 to start the engine and run it for a while in nuetral if the car has been sitting unmoved, possibly for months at a time? The mainshaft is still spinning and I wonder if...

Sorry if this derails the thread , it was not my intention. Fwiw, I bought a set of brand new Tatum midboards a number of years back, right out of the box you could not rotate the hub there was so much preload. Once clamped in a big vice we had to use a 4' pry bar in the studs to rotate them...

You need to take that to Trump rallys.

Don’t get me started with the mufflers!! About 2000ish we used to get hassled by the boat cops for excessive noise. They would hang out by the cliff at the sand bar with their decibel meter and pass out citations, they were $170 for the first violation and went up from there. So we had to put...

Here you go it’s all I can come up with. This was after a rebuild. I never get tired of listening to a healthy BBC. Old school shit rocks!

'94 Tahiti 240 Warrior, it was a Hardin Marine built Tahiti. Dave Wood was the guy who built the hull. Ours is a very rare open bow, Paul Pfaff built our engine. It's outdated now but have no reason to get rid of it. We always wanted a big tunnel with twins but never pulled the trigger on one...

When you get to be a fifty something, 7 is the new 10. I try to keep all of my stuff in as perfect a condition as I'm capable of, the problem is time has its way with me and I run out of it routinely. Yesterday I washed and dried my 40' pusher, and that was it I was not going to do anymore. It...

Yeah that was cool AF! Looked like there was a little rise and the ass end got a little light, the driver did a good job of saving it.

It's been a while since I worked for GM, but I remember seeing front hub reluctor wheels cracking and rotating on the hub that would cause all sorts of odd abs events and never setting any dtcs. Pull the sensors out and see if you can spin the reluctor wheel with a screwdriver through the hole...

And for those who were around when M stood for music...

I'm a big fan of Gary Numan, I love his signature sound and use of synthesizers. He's 66 but still rocks, I missed him when he was in Phoenix a few months ago but I'm now following his social media and will be sure to catch up next time he's anywhere close. Dam the guy is passionate about his...

 I was a General Motors dealer mechanic for 34 god dammed years. I was underpaid and overworked for long hours, worked Saturdays away from my family, busted the skin on my knuckles, burned my arms, down on my knees, and strained my back bent over the fender of a million stupid dumb ass lifted...
