Replace the cp4. Got rid of my truck before it failed, but I was also running a cp3 along with the cp4. But, we had two more lml's in our fleet. Both lost the cp4. These were factory lml one ton reg cab 4wd trucks. One failed at about 60k miles. Other made it to around the 130k mark. Friend of mine just had insurance company TOTAL his duramax. Reg cab lml one ton 4wd. Factory, and not a daily driver. Used it for hauling his tractor around and hauling hay on weekends. At 160k his cp4 went out and destroyed everything. $15k in damage. Like you said, when it goes, kiss everything fuel related from the injectors to the fuel tank good bye. By the way Don, the local shop that replaced both of the one tons we had in our fleet, they swapped the cp4's out without removing the body. All done from overhead. Does require removal of the turbo, but all the def junk has already been removed on your truck, so you have half the battle won...I know there are a few lml's out there that haven't had an issue yet, but I know 90% more that have had them go out than the ones that are still factory...
May as well add the tranny or just the converter too.
You can get with Mike L and he will send you a built trans and you send back the core. Honestly Don give him a call and Inglewood transmission and hear what he has to say. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I like the plan. Whats another 10k.
OK, I did my homeworkIn the offering will be a modified Fleece CP3 pump kit that replaces the factory junk and eliminates a lot of junkSince the Turbo will be out, although not completely necessary, mine would be just to pull it down to check things out.For that reason I'm going to do a bigger single turbo as well. The one I picked has a separate pedestal which will make replacing the thing a relative breeze. Speaking to the turbo people, my setup will produce somewhere between 600-625HP with the actual components I have and possibly numbers north of that since I have manifolds and larger up-pipes.The thing I will see that is written between the lines is way mo better driveability. THis new turbo will flash up much faster. hey said it builds boost more than twice as quickly and then builds to around 45 psi. Of course, I will not be able to use those numbers unless I hire a trash collection company to police up transmission parts I would be leaving. But like I said in the autumn, following this will be a new trans and converter built to around the 800 HP standard which should get this truck done forever.I'll post up details of the purchase in a wee bit after I finalize and sort everything out.
I had my tunes redone by Nate over at revco. My tunes from starlite did ok but night and day. But I am no stranger to the right peddle and never changing from my big tune. So. Nate did me a solid and tried some tuning to fix a issue. Good dude def worth a phone call Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
What does being deleted have to do with it Don? I run PPEI on my LML and they are next door in LA.
sounds to me like LML Silverado Duramax C-Max Build Thread Part 4 is about to be locked and LML Silverado Duramax C-Max Build Thread Part 5 is about to commence?!

They also have DOT ride with CHP here and will do a visual. If they see something, you get towed and can't get it until you fix it.
Don, I don’t particularly have a favorite tuner at this point and it doesn’t affect me really who ya go with. As for legality of the tune and so forth. What does it matter you have already broke he law by removing those parts. With that in mind don’t you live in the Tuck ? Who is gonna come check what tuning, emissions equip, you have on your truck any way. I would poke the bear and tell ya to buy American lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
