    Header Install Questions

    My install went pretty easy. Cut the bracket and used the spacer from LMC. Worked like a charm. It does make getting to the plugs a bit more difficult but I expected that anyway. Worst thing for me was the 1.5 hour drive back home with no exhaust!

    Anybody change to aftermarket steering wheel?

    Has anybody swapped your stocker for an aftermarket steering wheel? If so which did you go with, how was the install and fitment? And of course...post pics if you have them. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Flighty steering, what to look for?

    Yeah, I agree with that. I'm not putting the stabilizer on until I have it sorted out and working well.

    Flighty steering, what to look for?

    Thanks for the pointers guys. I'll have a look at them all.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Let's see, I bought the truck the last week of March. Since then I've replaced the power steering pump (twice), the ac compressor, new valve covers, got rid of factory EGR and air intake, new plugs, long tube headers, flowmaster exhaust, new headlights, taillights and side markers, Pioneer...

    Flighty steering, what to look for?

    Ive noticed since buying the truck that the steering just seems very flighty or loose. I understand its a 30 year old truck, but still it seems excessive to me. I have a good 3-4" of back and forth sway in the wheel for general driving adjustments. So, having that said, what are the usual...

    Performer EPS vs Performer Air-Gap?

    Great info fellas. I think I'm gonna go with the EPS. The logic on the more consistent performance makes sense on air gap, but I figure the eps will work fine for me and it's cheaper, so win/win. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Satellite receiver placement?

    I'm not saying it won't work or you couldn't try it. But it specifically says not to mount it on your dash. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Satellite receiver placement?

    I had one but ruined it by cutting the antenna wire. I placed it right in front of the cargo light on the back of the cab. It gets a complete view of the sky there so I figured it'd be fine after reading the directions. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Performer EPS vs Performer Air-Gap?

    Be sure and post up info/review on that 1806/2701 combo. That's exactly what I was looking at. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Performer EPS vs Performer Air-Gap?

    I was leaning toward the EPS due to not having the stock intake and I'd read similar things in that the AirGap in cold weather takes a long time to get the engine up to correct op temps etc. I've got long tubes to go on soon and a new exhaust. Eventually I will do new heads and a cam but...

    Performer EPS vs Performer Air-Gap?

    I'm starting to look into changing my intake and carb out. Pretty much decided on the Thunder series 650cfm carb but I'm torn on the intake. What are the benefits of each of these and which would you choose? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Radio issues, any ideas?

    I do wonder that. I'll check into getting a replacement. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Radio issues, any ideas?

    Not much wiring to it. Runs from the antenna itself to the control module then from that to the head unit. Seems more like an interface issue aside from a physical issue to me. Idk though so I will investigate further. Hell, I'm just happy to have clear radio, cd player and rear speakers...

    Radio issues, any ideas?

    Alright fellas, I have isolated the issue. Removed the bass blockers and that didnt change anything. I unplugged the Sirius/XM tuner and poof, it works perfect now. I can switch sources to my hearts content. So thats good but that sucks cause I got the radio specifically for the sirius...

    Radio issues, any ideas?

    My dad says the cig lighter isnt constant 12v and that if it was I should be able to turn the radio on without the key in the ignition. Thats not correct is it?

    Radio issues, any ideas?

    I did try that and sadly it doesnt reset to zero. I'm open to any and all suggestions. I thought about the bass blockers but the rear speakers are wired separately and so even if it was an issue with those they should still play.

    Radio issues, any ideas?

    Alright, I am at a loss right now. After talking to different folks I returned the radio and got another one. Brand new radio. Installed it and its doing the exact same thing. I have it wired up with a harness from Metra. When it plays sound it works fine. When I switch between sources it...

    Radio issues, any ideas?

    Will do. I've got it set to a radio station that's literally less than a mile away. It shows full signal and shows that it should be playing. Just no sound. I did add and xm tuner but don't have a subscription yet. However I cut the antenna wire to feed into the cab and I think it may be a...

    Radio issues, any ideas?

    Alright, nix that. Found the ground you were talking about. It was barely connected to the transmission, not the head. Covered in oil. Wiped it off and snugged it down good and tight. Didn't seem to change anything. I have been messing with the radio and I've isolated a bit more what it's...

    And mine is just a black wire to the accessory hole right under the valve covers on the back end of the head. It isn't flat as the one pictured. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Radio issues, any ideas?

    Yeah, that ground is there. It was covered in oil due to my recent valve cover change and not having retightened again yet. I wiped it off. Radio is just hit or miss. You can be switching from radio to cd and it'll stop playing sound. It shows it's playing but no sound. Then if you restart...

    Radio issues, any ideas?

    And I'm gonna say I doubt it. It's a crate motor that was swapped in and they didn't do the cleanest job. However wouldn't that effect the whole radio and not just the sound output? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
