    Remote locks on an 89?

    I would love to add remote locks on my 89. All the kits i see online are for the full system to add power locks and remote. I already have power locks, and i just want to add the remote lock/unlock. Anyone make a kit for that?

    Finally had to replace the starter, It took a beating when i was troubleshooting the no start issue with the coolant sensor. Upgraded to the vortec 98+ starter.

    89 350ci. Starter is dragging (I think... Battery and alt test good). I read you can upgrade to a newer (98+) starter and all you need is new bolts. Does anyone have a link for this? I really dont want to order the wrong one. Thanks!

    Ok, question in this kit. The Monroe shocks use a tiny air hose with an outer threaded collar. This kit seems to us a larger hose. How do I connect them? See pics.

    now this is cool! the setups on the sites are big$$ but this is more cost effective.

    Did some changes to make the bed usable again. Cut out the bed support above the diff, and added air shocks!

    What shock extensions for 6 in drop?

    The setup in this pic would not work for me. that would be at least partially on top of the notch plate and i would have to drill that and the frame i have this style notch and this one shows the top bracket using the already there bolts in the notch. but i doubt all the notches have the same...

    what is the goal of notching above the frame, did you do a body drop?

    72 chevelle seems to be very close except the bottom bolt being 1/2 instead of 9/16 so i ordered a set from amazon to see if they will work.

    just havent had time and not sure how to access it with the cut off wheel and the axle in the way. Been working on the Mrs. 85 cj for the last 6 weeks so the obs has been just being enjoyed.

    What shock extensions for 6 in drop?

    their website shows this as the best option, and it specifically states it will work with a notch, but i just dont see how thats going to fit. my notch is wider than the factory bump bracket seen in the pic, and then extends at least 4 inches out past that with the bolting surface...

    I got the specs and sent those to Monroe support, but they quit responding to my emails...

    What shock extensions for 6 in drop?

    i specifically stated such in the very first post. If you have a link to a bag kit that would work at a similar price point, i would be interested there as well. I just assumed the air shocks would be easier to install since they just replace the shock thats already there.

    7 bags of mulch put me riding the bump stops all the way home. I have not notched the bed support yet so I installed bumps to keep the diff from contacting the bed.

    Do you have to remove the bed to install? The instructions say to do so.

    What shock extensions for 6 in drop?

    I recently installed an ihc 4/6 drop kit. The rear came with a flip, notch, extenders, and shorter shocks. I want to install some air shocks to help regain some if the bed function, but these extenders are not long enough to use factor length shocks. Everything I see online is for up to 5 in...

    Truck won't start, need suggestions.

    it ended up being a bad coolant temp sensor in the end. It was just coincidence that it started at the same time. Buy an old truck they said, it will be fun they said...

    There is a Walter Hall park nearby, but i am not aware of a Walter Long park. Maybe that was it!
