I was under the impression that the float bowls were a free update for those who've had problems. Some one I know is taking his in to my same dealer for the update, but says they are charging him. I am also getting ready to do mine, but would like to know:
Are the rest of you guys getting charged :?:
If so, How Much :?: (separate parts and labor if possible)

Had mine done. freebie at Michaels Reno. Almost killed me too of all places, on a sharp incline the sled cut out and I immedeatly turned to the down slope, sled stopped and I went flying through the windshield. You better watch the bolt they placed on the rear tunnel reinforcement, it was 1/16 away from the sides of the track, I cut it down flush to the nut. Boy I tell you, you always have double check everything. I can tell you more but I'll fill up this forum.

Tahoe,
Did you see how close one of the chaincase bolts is to the edge of the track? I put a spacer in there to give it more room.

kmer,
Hi, they replaced a couple of rivets ( one on each side ) towards the rear suspention mounting bracket with a nut and bolt. They used too long of a bolt that it was almost touching the edges of the track. Good thing I looked underneath to check on their work and sure enough another idiotic mistake, I'm just suprised they did'nt drill a hole through the track while they at it.
