If you look at he '88 to'98 Chevrolets and GMC 3/4 and 1 Ton 4x4s they had a wider front wheel track. GM said they did this to aid in steering in a shorter radius. At least an inch if looked at form the rear. This was the reason for the factory fender flairs.

Get some heavy duty zip ties and 3/4 inch nuts and wrap around drive shaft. Beats the crap out of the underside and drives you nuts trying to figure out what it is. Also on vehicles with points type distributors run a wire from the coil to the seat frame. Lights you up if there are any exposed...

One of these days the big quake will come and California will slide into the Pacific and Arizona will have ocean front property. And all the smog problems will be solved. By the way how are the IOU's in lieu of pay working out for state employees?

Those pieces of fabric are probably tethers for car seats. Got them in my 04 my sons carseat has a strap that connects to these to keep the seatback from moving forward.

Not mine but my dads: 99 190,000 original vp44 and lift pump. Replaced 2 rear axle seals. Had original batteries up to 150,000.

If you have access to a welder you can try welding a nut to whats left of the bolt head. I had to do that to some suspension bolts on my mother-in-laws Dodge Stratus.

These trucks do what we need em to. Everything is bigger and better in Texas including the number of Dodge/Cummins trucks.

If you are running oversize tires on your Goat that might be part of the problem with the frontend. If it is the bigger tires then a Chevy or GMC with Inferior Front Suspension sure wont handle it. I've been running my 04. 5 since 47000 miles with 33x12. 50R17's and havent replaced any frontend...

BullyDogs arent bad either on the Dodges. I got one I'm trying to get rid of and it give me 2mpg gain on the Tow/Economy setting and about 50HP.

If you are talking about the square mirrors that fold up and out you can get those from any Dodge dealer. Depending on wether or not you want heated and electric they will run about 250 each for the manual mirrors and 400 each for heated/electric.

I have an 04 and had an 01 w/5600 and both rattle. I was told by a Dodge service tech it was the clutch rattling. Also heard a few Fords doin too. I put 120000 on the 01 and 107000 on the 04 so far and havent had any problems.

My dads 99 gets an average of 20mpg on a 40 mile round trip to work and back at 55-60 mph. He has seen as much as 22-23 on interstate trips. It has the auto with 3. 55's and 2 wheel drive.

Got 107000 on my '04 and have yet to do anything other than preventative maintenance. Some of those miles the truck was overloaded a tiny bit.

Freind of mine has a 3500 w/ Hemi and the abs sensor on the rearend has a loose connection. When the lights come on all he has to do is crawl under the truck and wiggle the wires. This usually happens when he has a heavy load on it.

Boomshaw how is the PSM intake workin out? Thinkin about gettin one myself.
