update?

Picked up my reman this morning from Napa. was surprised they seemed to indicate they knew about the short ones when I mentioned it.

I have seen weird stuff at places like Midas. Is it a national chain using internal inventory? May be their policy to combine. In this case not gouging but probably a reasonable step.

:shrug: Maybe because mine is an early '02? Original half shaft on right side so not sure why.

Old thread but My OEM Intermediate shaft had no clips on it. '02 so maybe it was added later years?

Seal not leaking at 268K so I am thinking leave original seal and bearing in. I changed out a rear main seal on my tractor last winter when installing a new clutch even though it wasn't leaking. Well of course now it is.

I know one should stick to the Napa rebuilt cvc half shafts but where should I source a decent quality intermediate shaft. 268K-time to replace my intermediate shaft and right half shaft. No spines left. Should take care of my 20mph noise making.

269K. ATK Reman about 70 K ago due to valve dropo

Click on warranty. Comes up Caldone warranty. But I would stick to the remans even if Caldone vs new to ensure length is same as OEM

Old thread but updated to 2017, Napa only offers Caldone now... Wonder if JBA is better at 2x the price

I assume 2.5 max. Still in middle of install. I got the 2nd to last set of 132L's in my OME coil/shock set from All J's. If u recall u emailed them. I bought 1 of the 2 last sets. Rear is done. Front is dissembled. Still need to swap and reinstall. All J said should be ok with stock back...

Regarding UCA issues and JBA extensions when having a lift, Am I close enough to stock with just an OME shock/coil replacement that I won't have these problems and need the JBA extensions? I haven't seen this mentioned in any of the OME threads.

My tailgate rattles. The support brace spot welds inside I think gave way. I think my wife backing it into a light pole helped it come free lol also check the tire mount. could be coming from somewhere else too. I have a loud bang from the back seat of my silverado. I tracked it down to a...

I am in the middle of an OME shock/coil upgrade. the 255K KJ swayed in the wind and everything is original including the shocks so I was definitly swaying in the wind. I am doing my own work but the mechanic who originally looked at it said I also needed a new rear anti-sway bar. Ya I know many...
