I burned a fusible link on the fender well. It's the red outside wire in the cluster of five. There are two red wires, one on each side of the split in the loom. It is the one that doesn't have a connecter immediately downstream. What operates off that wire? I ran a jumper wire around it and...

fusable links I burned the orange fusible link today. Do I have a short or do these things burn up by themselves. What do I do about it? A neighbor had a Ford that burned the links to the point he replaced them with circuit breakers, is that a good solution? I enjoyed my 10 mile walk back home.

springs I'm in Arizona. I priced springs in Tucson today and stock replacements were higher than after market. Skyjackers were $1200 for everything including longer shocks. Re-arch w/new leaf was $250 a corner. The problem with re-arch is that you still have a tired spring. They will be flat...

After 300K of ranch work and overloading my springs are bent. What do I replace them with? I want to stay away from high lift type springs because my gooseneck trailers will hit the bed. I don't care about the ride.

So what is this thing and what does it do? I have a 30 horse pump, will it help or does it already have one?

Where do I buy a floor mat "that fits" for a 91 5spd 4x4 riggsclay@hotmail

I'm putting a gooseneck hitch in a 2001 2wd. There are 4 bolts 1/2 diameter in the frame above the axle on each side. Two are 8 inches in front of the axle center line and two are 8 inches behind the center line, mas o manos. They are in the depressed part of the frame. The bolts have serated...
