The transverse mounted 5.3's have a cold start lifter tick that doesn't go away until the oil pressurizes....gm knows of the problem and warranty doesn't cover it...
The last of my brake stuff came in today
I didn't realize they sold fronts as a set... thought they did it like rotors, so I have to return one box of them. It was "1 set, 4 pieces" so the inner and outer pads I'm assuming. Any lubricants or such I should pick up? Shanin's thread had a few things listed, but I'm not sure since I'm a 2wd

When the calipers are compressed you'll get some back in the resivor....have some new for just in case.....you should need to open bleed valves unless you're changing a caliper or changing all the fluid....
Ok thanks 88, quick thing though. So the box had 4 pads in it, I'm reading Shanin's writeup and her's is showing one pad per rotor... do the 2wd's have an inner and outer pad?
