    4l60e blowing oil out of dip stick??

    I was wrong, my leak was the electrical plug on passenger side was pushed down into case. I just installed the transmission after rebuild. Guess when I was hooking up wire harness, I pushed down too hard and shoved it back into case. Dropped pan and pushed it back up.

    Parts list for my front end rebuild

    Matter of opinion I guess. $100 again, truck needs work again, valuable time used to work on truck again, alignment again, hopefully you haven't worn out your tires. Not my cup of tea.

    Parts list for my front end rebuild

    I just replaced all ball joints, all tie rod ends and sleeves, pitman arm and idler arm. All Moog parts. I saw the cheaper stuff but I don't want to do this crap for a while again! Bought my stuff from Summit Racing. Wanna say it was all about $650 with 4 Rancho RS5000 shocks. Cost me over $200...

    removing lower balljoints

    I pounded mine out. I bought a kit from Summit Racing when I ordered all my ball joints, tie rod ends, pitman arm, idler, etc. I plan on using it for u joints and stuff so I figure I'll get some use out of it. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/wmr-w89304

    New Tunes!

    I left the tweeter in the arm rest area connected. Seems ok. It is a 4 ohm as well. This head unit was $109 on Amazon. Awesome bang for the buck!

    New Tunes!

    This is actually my first Kenwood. I've always bought Pioneer. Decided to give Kenwood a try this time. So far I'm loving it. Easy to use. I figured out how to pair my iPhone with it without even usin the manual. I also bought the 4x6 Kenwoods to go in the back panels. May do that today. I also...

    New Tunes!

    You can see the old original speakers were worn and dirty. New Kenwoods sound good! And I changed out both driver door handles!

    Hello From Louisiana

    Yep that's the forum! I think I'm about the same as you on doing my own repairs. Some things you have to have special tools for and I just can't justify buying them and most likely never use them again. Congrats on getting rid of the cancer man. And your truck looks great!
