Truck will not start after heat soak

My 95 has been giving me problems for the past year or so. When the engine is cold, it will fire right up and run fine. After I drive it, park it, and let it sit for 20-30 minutes and it heat soaks under the hood, it will not start back up. I know it is a fuel problem. The injectors spray...

The Street Wheel and Tire Thread

Anyone running a 295/50R15 on a 10 inch wheel in the rear? I have the tire on an 8 inch wheel with a 5 inch backspace right now, but I don't like the way the sidewall balloons way out from the rim. Just trying to figure out what kind of backspacing I would need to run a 10 inch wide wheel on a...

The Stupid Lowered Questions Thread

I guess I need to fix my rear ride hight before I properly set pinion angle. Thanks for all the great pinion angle info! So, my next question... I need to lift up the rear end of the truck a little. I assume its because of old leaf springs. What are my options for lifting the rear around 1...

That makes sense. I'll do some angle measuring when I get a chance

Thanks guys. I'll check into this stuff. I do have an angle finder tool and I work in a shop. Problem is none of really know much about lowering a vehicle that much. I have the adjustment in the flip kit maxed out. Even torched out some of the original spring perch to get more adjustment out of...

It's currently almost level. That's with the adjustment in the djm flip kit pointing it down as far as it will go. What angle at the pinion would be ideal? Should I go for the 2,4,or 6 degree shims?

I was going to do the u joints soon. They were fine before i dropped it, but i figured they would need to be replaced after lowering. I added more to my carrier bearing shim and it reduced the vibration more. I'm just not sure how high I can take it. It's a little over an inch shim now. I guess...

Maybe someone can give me some advice on my problem. I have a 97 ECSB with a DJM 4/6 drop. I am getting a driveline vibration in the 15-25mph range. I've got the pinion angle pointed down as far as it will go. Which isn't that far. With an angle finder on the diff, it was only 0-1 degrees. I...
