    SR's 1992 Dakota

    Looks like a great old Dodge Rob. It's definitely worth the effort to throw some parts at it.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Absolutely. That's the way to do it. My brother-in-law only pull our Alaskan mill out once in a while for a specific job. I'm going to be doing a picnic table this winter as a project. I'll likely cut the top and benches out of one of our own trees using it.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Yeah, we never run anything that big around here.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    I also have an Alaskan mill. I use one of my 361's with it. You may be the only other person that I've talked to that actually has one.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    That is one serious saw. I have two 361's and a 230 CE. Yours makes those look like toys.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Quick backstory on this Oil Pressure Switch socket that I picked up today at AutoZone. As some of you know, I've been working on an old Dodge Dakota off and on for the last several months. The oil pressure gauge hasn't worked since I got the truck and I just noticed this week that it was...

    Budget Beater Build: 2004 Dakota

    Got the oil pressure gauge working today. Simple pressure sensor replacement. You could say that the old one was used up.

    My daily driver has me stumped--No start/Slow start issue

    I'm sure that you already checked for this, but I've had battery cables corrode inside the insulation.

    Not completely new here, but I had a question and didn't really know where to put it. Did any of you attend WyoTech?

    My cousin taught for a while at the location in Blairsville PA until they closed a few years ago.

    Any L98 350 People Here? I have a fuel pressure question

    Excellent information. Thanks. I've never never taken the cheap route on this car in all of the years that I've owned it. However, that $180 price tag sure is better than the $400+ asking price for new ones.

    Any L98 350 People Here? I have a fuel pressure question

    Thanks. I've been looking at SouthBay. I'm assuming that yours are also remans like the ones listed in your link above correct?

    Any L98 350 People Here? I have a fuel pressure question

    @bucket Sorry to be pulling up this old thread. But, I have an injector question for you. I'm still on the factory GM Multec injectors, now some 35 years old. I'm starting to get some raw fuel smell out of the exhaust and a bit of haze when it is first started. (Definitely fuel not oil...

    Budget Beater Build: 2004 Dakota

    Using the little truck to haul a small load of scrap wood today. I'm convinced that this is probably the first time that this truck has been used to haul anything other than a gas can.

    Do I rebuild my SBC or swap for an LS3?

    I have had a block at a local machine shop for literally almost a year and it still isn't back yet. Hopefully, the shops in your area aren't as completely understaffed and incompetent as the one I am dealing with. But, downtime may be a concern if you decide to rebuild.

    Bvllsh!t on craigslist.

    After 25 years of marriage, I'm pretty used to that problem.......lol

    Favorite Project Truck Sales Pitches

    I've seen the line "mechanic owned and maintained" a couple of times. If that's the case, then I don't want to ever go to that garage for service.

    1991 Suburban AC

    I would have thought that PAG would be the proper oil for 134a. I reserve the right to be wrong however.

    Crewcab with an I6. Hmmmm

    I have seen cab & chassis trucks with a 292 before. They were all regular cabs however.

    Crewcab with an I6. Hmmmm

    Now that is just flat out cool. I don't know that I ever saw one with a I6. That is just screaming for a Cummins swap.

    Or, he could just drop it off here. I've got the space.....LOL

    C20 for towing

    Very familiar with them. Actually bought a 2005 extended cab brand new. Solid truck other than the ongoing issues with the intermediate steering shaft. There's nothing inherently bad or good with the 4l60E. It's simply an electronically controlled automatic transmission that needs to run...

    C20 for towing

    If towing is your primary goal with the truck you are going to purchase, then as much as it pains me to say it, I'd dump the idea of a square and pick yourself a modern 1/2 ton of your favorite flavor. It will be a much better platform for you to start out with, especially if your plan is to...

    Budget Beater Build: 2004 Dakota

    I have a couple of minor things to work on when I get the chance. As I mentioned earlier in this thread, there is an issue with the oil pressure gauge that I need to diagnose. I also noticed a little noise in one of the rear door speakers. It has that Infinity sound system that Dodge offered...

    Budget Beater Build: 2004 Dakota

    Thanks. It is sitting in the driveway as our spare for now. Definitely worth the little bit of money I have in it.

    Muffler swap opinions

    I actually like the sound of the Flowmasters. I'd run what you have now unless they need replaced due to corrosion, etc.
