i'm installing a Westech boost/egt gauge on the single gauge mopar pillar cover. 2007 i installed several gauges on my last truck, 98. 5, so i don't have issues with drilling into the manifold, routing lines, etc... but the silly thing that throws me is a simple thing --How do you pop the plate...

i downloaded Smarty level 3 a few days ago, i've only ran a few errands thus-far, and i am a happy boy. Since my Westech is on the way from Geno's, i haven't really pushed on the pedal hard yet, but in just normal driving, it is way fun. Tomorrow, i drive from Taos to Denver and back, so i will...

Up here in Taos it is 3. 09 and rising. No jokin' i just read where reg in SanFran is 3. 87 and is expected to take another biggg jump in a few daze.

where??? i feel real stupid. i've spend an hour rolling the truck back and forth, i'm using way bright lights, i look at the picture on page 2. My neck hurts, and i still can't find that silly fitting. Does it face the front, the photo looks like it does. Me truck is just about ready to turn...

Thanks AWray, looks like that is on my weekend list, i hope i have the same luck.

AWray, what do you mean by 'popped the cover'? The U-joints does sound promising, we currently have a load of snow on the ground, so crawling under the rig, will wait for that to clear.

i'm dealing with some of the same symptoms. The rig has a grinding feeling when i turn sharp. The strange thing is-- i can't quite locate where it is coming from. It sort of feels like you are in 4WD on dry pave -turning. It is bad enough that it vibrates the mirrors. A friend said it...

i just returned from 3 weeks towing. Two events happened that i have not seen before. i'm hoping someone in the community can point me in a direction to look. 1). Living in newMexico, i seldom use wipers, maybe once a year. In northern CA, it rains. When i turned on the wipers and the...

please add me to the list There isn't much i can add that hasn't been said. In one respect i am fortunate, i had 160k before my LP went out. On the other side of the matter, it took my VP with it. I was on my way to ATS, Denver for a new transmission. I was towing at the time. ATS called 30min after...

FASS spring hola, i have not been on the forum for a few years. I was driving up to ATS a few weeks ago to have a new transmission and all the trimin's installed. As i crossed into Colorado, (pulling a trailer), me rig missed for the first time in it's 160k life, and the 'check engine light' went on...

So, I was driving the other day and I noticed that my overdrive indicator light on the dash was not working. Overdrive was fine, just no light. Being that the truck was due to have the transfer case seal replaced... . again... I asked to have the overdrive bulb replaced. When I pick...

Thanks to all the replies, they all the helped. Shovelhead, (harley?) good photo, and all that i needed to see, presuming that you didn't hit anything with your holes. I'm not finished yet, but the boost is working along with the gauges now mounted, lights work etc... tomorrow tapping the...

So I finally purchased gauges for me rig, thinking it might be not too difficult to install. not so, it seems. First problem was on top of the dash. I am using a dash pod from Genos. It looks good, w/o obstructing view. But, has anyone drilled into the dash to route wires and tubing...

:confused: I picked up a fan belt, (accessory drive belt) from my only local dealer for 68 miles, (which has sold me several wrong parts in the past). The belt's width seemed narrow so I checked the one on the truck against the new one at the dealer, indeed it was approx 1/4" narrow. I took...

I have 86K on me '98, live in the SouthWest and wondering if it might be a good idea to change the drive belt... it just has the perpendicular cracks deamed ok in the sevice manual. Logic says yes indeed. Any experience?
