    Swaybar Link Snapped...Why?

    A couple years ago I rebuilt the entire front end of my truck. No problems until yesterday. Took off from a stop sign at a casual speed, hit the small dip on the other side of the road (going straight), heard a pop and heard metal tinking on the pavement. Stopped and found the broken bolt and...

    Fuse Blows Everytime I Press The Brake Pedal

    So. Been chasing gremlins with no luck. Found a few forums addressing the issue but have been unsuccessful. Problem started the other day. Had to throw on my hazards & they didn’t seem to be working right. Then I noticed my brake lights were out. No. 1 stop/haz fuse was blown. Replaced, and...

    Blown Head Gasket... What to do?

    *Upate* Thanks for all your input. Received a diagnosis from a trusted mechanic and he said it was a combo of my oil cooler lines leaking and a lower intake manifold failure. Since I had already done the upper intake manifold gasket I figured I could take this on. Was able to use my old...

    Trying To Set Ignition Timing, Dist. Won't Turn

    Hello, I recently replaced my distributor with a new one from 1A auto. Checking my timing (Ignition Timing Advance for #1 Cylinder) the computer is telling me I'm at 19 degrees positive. Watched a few videos on how to adjust it, went to do it, & I can't get the distributor to rotate by hand as...

    Blown Head Gasket... What to do?

    Welp. Sad news. Found out my new bad oil leak was coming out of my radiator today. Sadly it's now December and I don't have a garage to replace my head gaskets on my own. I've recently put over $2k into the ol gal in engine and suspension work. Hell even recently upgraded the sound system. Did...

    Interested in 2 Wheel Drive Low - is it possible?

    Squeasel, The posi-lok manual cable system that replaces your actuator will allow you to run 4-lo. http://4x4posi-lok.com/ Pretty easy install. Think I put mine on my '97 in about 2hrs or so while having a beer.
