    Wish me luck….

    When the anti-lock brake module goes, you'll be a different mind on the C' Maro. $1500.00 to repair... Drive it and sell it asap, before your son ruins the fragile POS or LS3 it, and be THE MAN. $1200.00 for the wierd truck would have been a good deal... Sounds like you almost got sucked into...

    For the pros.... Axle shaft question. Please advise

    Wow... Next time you take it to the Mud Bogs, remember to add Front/Rear Differential vent hoses to the top of the ceiling, inside the cab. ( ...or higher, like up to the tip of your fiberglass Red Neck 'Merican Flag Pole, 10 feet in the air). On a more serious note: You can also add 3/32" x 3"...

    Need suggestions: What color interior for Midnight Blue Paint job?

    Brown Ferarri Seats are COOL... (and they come with heaters): Here's the one's "The General" uses, (custom wrapped, I'm thinking?): These are cool too: (As a cat owner, I'm not sure my cat would ever get into the truck again, with "Kat-Zkin" seats... Rawhide Cow skin might be OK...)...

    Drive shaft rubbing "Y" pipe

    Cut it out... (No really... cut it out...). The Y-Pipe is the worst design exhaust ever. It scavanges very poorly. The restriction on the passenger side head flow is enormous. Somebody got creative with the pipe added going down the passenger side, cut into the Y-Pipe. So you don't neet to...

    Fuses are NOT fusable links... When you dead short the battery, you almost always fry a fusable link. They suck getting to and are tough to replace properly. It means pulling your starter, finding the bad link and using exactly the correct size fusable link to replace it. The crimps need to be...

    I need help and to know what this truck is worth

    What if it is stolen? Is it worth an arraignment? Call the Sheriff and ask them to inspect the VIN in person and clear is not stolen in the state you intend to title it. Charge $1000.00 to remove it and for the frustration re-titling. It will suck, family members will be contacted... Claims...

    Looks like you have options ˆˆˆˆˆ... I'm waiting for the pictures of the threads on those hubs!:popcorn: The good news is: Eventually, what used to be an all day repair per side, will easily become a 4 hour job, after your second or third time in there! Good Luck!

    Ignition issues, Truck Continues Running After Twisting Key to Off Position

    Remove the 4 bolts under your column and carefully drop the assembly. The wheel will fall just enough to expose a white, gray, black or blue plastic mechanism which connects to a rod up your column. You can search for the column diagram for the year of your truck. The switches get dirt into the...

    Let’s see your memorabilia?!

    Repent sinner! Turn yourself in for the reward! (funnin). Where's my $10.00? My 10 year rigging partner had the LSU boots they gave Rod Stuart! LSU is some funky folks! (Never fit me though... Guess they were made for somebody else with little tiny feet). "Reclamation is institutionally...

    Needs Rescuing Good Parts Truck Deep in the NE Texas Woods

    Agreed. My bad for not recognizing the drop... So many people tow with improper leveled hitches... really bothers me here on the ranch too. Towing with only the rear axles hitting dirt, with the equalizers maxed out... breaking the suspension, as if it doesn't matter... Makes me sick... TBH...

    Needs Rescuing Good Parts Truck Deep in the NE Texas Woods

    y Bailey's is cool too... they should have welded the name on the bumper, in my humble opinion... The bi-metal sticker (if that's what it is...) kinda insults me is all... If it's painted on then pardon me for guessing wrong... Thousands of GM trucks came with a dealership welded logo...
