    88-94 Metal dashboard being made, come give opinions

    Not defensive at all just saying one bracket doesn't do justice to the difficulty of property changing that bracket which does justify to some degree his price

    88-94 Metal dashboard being made, come give opinions

    Basically if what you want is a stock interior then this isn't for you if what something custom and cool then I don't think you'll find a deal that's a whole ton better

    He said that factory 73-87 gauges will fit and he could set it up the 73-87 hvac controls or the 98 controls and he would make whatever radio I wanted fit also he said he could fit the stock column or after market as for the "one bracket change" what you have to remember is not everyone...

    88-94 Metal dashboard being made, come give opinions

    Also another point is putting a 88-94 dash in a 95 and up is a huge pain and you have to change many brackets under the dash attached to the body which costs lots of money with his dash you could basically bolt a 88 to 94 dash in a 95 and up truck food for thought

    There is guy near me that does custom metal dashes for the 88 to 98 truck. In his add he sites the 88 to 94 but I asked him if he can make a dash like this to fit a 98 but have the look of a older style and he said yes just thought I'd help get the word out looks like a great option for people...

    turbo 400 kickdown solenoid

    so it sounds like 1 I should defiantly get the modulator working and 2 the easiest and best way seems to be getting an throttle valve I've heard adjusting those can be tough but I'm hoping the companies making the conversion would have good instructions to do so

    turbo 400 kickdown solenoid

    so here's what I found from looking at service manuals the 88 to 92 vehicles used and 6.2l none turbo diesel and before they went to the 6.5 turbo diesel the swapped from the turbo 400 to the 4l80e which eliminates the vacuum modulator and fixes the problem I'm bring up with it so I will have to...

It is very clear that the person that did the swap didn't know much about autos as well, so I have a single prong connector on the drivers side...
