I want to replace the stamped cover on my front axle. I use a mag hyteck on my Dana 80 rear axle. I love the design but the 60 cover requires popping the tie rod off to remove the cover. I remove and clean inside at gear oil changes, popping the tie rod loose is as big a pain as scraping...

It isnt quite that bad but close. I will check out Standard, I have seen their advertisment in TDR magazine.

My NV4500 took out 3rd on the countershaft. I will probably keep this transmission and rebuild it with a Torque King kit when I have more time to mess with it. That being said, I am looking for a reman to get the truck back on the road. Who is a decent builder that can be trusted (and...

Thanks for the pictures. The single handle latch is no longer available from Leer for the 2nd gen trucks. That is nice. The pictures also raise another question. Leer shows a skirted side on their new models (I added pic from their catalog) but your shell has a piece of trim along the bottom...

I have a 98 12 valve, quad cab, long bed. I am looking for a camper shell and have stopped by the local dealers. All the company brochures and web site pics are of new trucks. I have google image searched for days and I'm having trouble identifying the make and model of the camper shells I...

Quad 4x4 has them.

Thanks fest3er but no rust on the truck and spotless under the hood.

No replies?

I have a 98 12 valve. The throttle hung on me and I need to get to the bottom of this. The fuel shut off has been eliminated and replaced by a cable in the cab. The throttle cable and all linkage and springs have been recently replaced. I have no AFC and run Scheid's adjustable fuel plate. Its...

Been at it for a couple hours but I got it! When I got rid of the auto I removed all of the associated wiring all the way back to the PCM. When I removed the no longer needed wires from the connector I managed to bend pin 20 over in to the wrong spot. Pin 20 controls, you guessed it, the wait...

That is what I'm afraid of but I'm not sure where to start. I am not going to use the solenoid. I have a shut off cable installed in the dash.

I wanted to simplify things and make the pump easier to access. Any idea what the issue may be or is this a guess? Thanks, MBanning

I have a bit of a problem that I need help with. My 98 12 valve truck's wait to start light is not lighting up even if I put the AIT sensor in a cup of ice cubes. The grid heaters work but the light will not turn on. I have tested the AIT sensor using the info in the Dodge service manual and it...

I've got a project truck I cut the exhaust off from about 3 years ago. I got a new 4" silverline stainless system to install but can't figure what direction to face the muffler. I can't remember how the old exhaust was and the new silverline may be different anyway. The muffler has attached...

I swear TDR has the best folks I've never met. Thanks Gary, I'll call in the morning. MBanning
