    Weird No Start Issue

    I have the 7.4 and my truck recently started to develop a weird starting issue. When it sits for longer than 10 minutes it won't start. I'll put the key in the ignition and rotate it to crank and it just gives one single click. I replaced the starter because it sounded weak and it did not...

    Power Steering Pump 454

    I am in the middle of doing some maintenance to the truck and I am trying to pull my power steering pump. How do you guys drain the fluid out of the pump before you pull it? I removed the pulley already and i'm stuck for now. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

    Annoying squeak

    I am going to guess either shocks or swaybar bushing/end link. Have you checked these?

    My truck feels like a titanic boat turning on wheels. I will die before I don't run a sway bar.

    Limiting Straps

    Attached are a few more pictures. I finally got my straps installed. These are 22" and I have pretty much maxed the upper ball joint out. We will see how the moogs handle this. I will probably get a custom upper control arm built at some point. Below is a picture of the mounting points I...

    CV Angles/BJ Angles at Full Droop

    I'm trying to decide how much down travel to give my truck, but I am unfamiliar with the way BJs and CVs should look. At the angle above, the measurement between the top bolt of the shock and the bottom bolt of the shock is 22.5". This is the location of the 21.5" limiting strap that this lift...

    Front Suspension Rebuild

    I got the upper and lower BJs on today, but I got stuck on this boot cover. I couldn't get it to stay on. There is a metal ring inside the boot, but it was too tiny to slip over this lip on the BJ. Will this boot just seat itself when I put the castle but on or what? I tried for like 15 min, but...

    Thanks guy. I just popped it off. When should I put grease in the ball joints? How much do I fill them?

    Front Suspension Rebuild

    Got stuck again so I quit for the day. The hammer trick isn't working for the lower BJs. Got a pickle fork and went through the back of the spindle hammering it toward the hole. I decided to break mid way through because I was tired. Any advice for popping them off?

    Front Suspension Rebuild

    Thanks for the help guys. [/URL] I made it pretty much this far on both sides with the exeption of the left tie rod end. I'm thinking I am just going to get new rotors and wheel studs. Two of the studs are pretty munched up and would retread without some serious force. I'll keep you guys...

    Front Suspension Rebuild

    So I got the nut off and the caliper. How are the rotors supposed to come off? Just slide off the lug nuts? Mine seem to be fused to the hub.

    Front Suspension Rebuild

    There was not a chance in hell I could break that nut off with a 1/2 ratchet. I went and got a breaker bar and I had trouble using that. I sprayed both sides with PB blaster. The socket that I got for the axle bolt isn't that snug, honestly it has more play that I would expect. I had trouble...

    Front Suspension Rebuild

    Yeah. I just removed the wheel and it popped out from the back. We'll see if my 1/2 ratchet can break loose this axle bolt.

    Front Suspension Rebuild

    Hey everyone. I am rebuilding the front suspension on my truck and I am probably going to probably need as much help as I can get. I am armed with 2 write-ups and some tools. My first question is a simple one and I feel stupid for asking... How do I get these hub caps off? The passenger side...

    Vortec 454 Headers

    No one makes headers for 96+ trucks because of the emission fittings. If you get a 1995 or earlier header, they will fit, but it will not have the fitting for emissions.
