    Stock 4l80e vs. 700r4???

    I did a search but didnt find what I was looking for (i.e. im too lazy to look through all the threads). I have an opportunity to get a hold of a stock 4l80e trans. from a 2002 3/4 ton avalanche for pretty damn cheap. I was just curious as to how well an unbuilt 4l80 would fare compared to a...

    Ty not running...

    Out of nowhere the ty did not want to start. It turns over, it has fuel, it has spark, it will only start if i use starting fluid. After starting it with starter fluid it stays running on its own... Well it did for a couple of minutes then it stalled. After it stalled it would start on its...

    Black '92 Ty Hopwell Junction NY

    I saw a black '92 Ty at Hyatts garage/Sunoco station about a week or two ago. I completely forgot about it but figured I'd ask. It was pretty clean with aftermarket fog-lights. I didnt get close to te truck though it was behind a locked fence. Idk if it was in an accident, impounded, or...

    I saw it twice last night. Once pulling out of the Wendy's parking lot and then again later on that night in the same area turning onto New Hackensack Road. Wish I had gotten the plate #:(

    excessive condensation...help?

    Ive noticed since approx. february that the Ty has had a substantial build up of condensation in the oil filler tube. It has never done this in the past. I was figuring that maybe it was because of sitting all winter but the problem still hasnt gone away. A friend told me that I am constantly...

    ZQ8 + Pitman arm install?

    Heres the deal: I am planning on putting the ZQ8 box in soon. I also ordered a pitman arm to go with it. My question is how do I know that the ZQ8 and pitman arm are lined up like they are supposed to be? Thanks

    Sy in GMHTP

    I dont know if this is a repost but if it is then mods please remove. I noticed in the most recent issue of GMHTP there was a sy in the "readers rides" (at least I think thats what they called it. He sure did drop a LOT of names from vendors on here :tup:

    Bees have taken over the ty

    I noticed today that there were about 6-8 yellow jackets surrounding my passenger side head light. I sprayed them with the hose and stomped them out. I looked all over for the nest but couldnt find any. I figured I had gotten them all but they keep coming back. I guess water doesnt really...

    Vac Line replacement (what sizes go where?)

    I just bought all new silicone vac lines in 4mm and 6mm but I dont know which size goes where. The vac lines on the truck now arent all factory, and I believe the sizes ahve mixed and matched so I really dont know which is supposed to be 4mm and 6mm. Any help is appreciated!! :tup:

    interior diagrams

    Since I pulled out the interior, and I now have a huge pile of screws, does anyone have any diagrams that show where the really long ones go, and where the really short ones go? I really should have separated everything but i didnt. I just really dont wanna mess anything up thats all.

    Boost launched the 20g w/ stock converter....

    ....And i was impressed :lol: It was the first (and probably last) time I tried boost launching it since I put it in, I always read that it was damn near impossble to build any boost w/ a stock stall, and 20g w/ 14cm^ housing. Well I built up to 7lbs of boost before I had to let off. I only...

    I hate roof racks!

    The other day I was installing a new battery tray in the rear of the Ty. After lifting the carpet to drill some holes I noticed it was slightly damp underneath :roll: . My first thought was that it was the rear window seal, as I noticed water would pour out of the wiper thingy when I lifted...

    Wrecked sy in kingston NY??

    I was talking to a friend of mine who supposedly stumbled upon a wrecked sy. Apparently it had been involved in a police chase, and the guy wrecked. (drug dealer) the engine, interior, and most of the truck was fine, just the roof had caved in some. Anybody in that area see, or hear of...

    Go back to stock intercooler???

    Ive been debating recently on getting rid of the kb a/a system and going back to stock. The money would help to pay for my tranny. Maybe its a little overkill for a 20g, and I have heard of some people running faster after getting rid of it and going back to stock. It would also help to clean...
