just providing another option. . air brakes are used on heavy duty trucks for a reason...

an option to consider. if possible. connect an air brake diaphragm to pull a parking brake cable. you may have to oversize the oem cable as the air brake will have more pull on the cable than anyone can apply by a foot brake. . an air brake system can be modified to work a parking brake on the...

i'm down sizing my r. v. to something a half ton can tow… having an diesel option gives me the best of: 1) a long lasting, high torque engine, that gets better fuel economy than a gas engine and 2) a lighter truck that rides better. pulling a light 20-24' trailer with a 1 ton, doesn't make...

have you thought of just using the outer wheel in the back. . instead of the inner wheel… track issue solved. .

looks to be charging normal to me… the battery will always need more voltage to charge than if you just check it without a load or charge going to it. . most batteries will show between 11. 7 and 13. 5 static… so a 1 volt higher charge rate would not be anything to worry about. 14. 7 is where...

i was moving my cargo trailer, and my front bumper dragged over a short stump. bumper lost the battle. . pulling the chrome trim piece and lic. plate loose. the trim piece is just hanging from one end. it looks to be just pushed onto the body color plastic… is there a easy method for...

truck is fixed, the replacement engine compartment wiring harness, took care of the problems. .

lmc truck also has them for a decent price...

i'd like to get rid of the center console and just have the standard lower dash. let me know if your still interested in a trade. .

they figured out that one of the soldered connections inside the wiring harness has high resistance. they did load test and check cells on the batteries. cleaned the cable ends and checked for a bad ground. 2 maybe 3 weeks to have chrysler have a new harness made. it's a non stocked item for any...

received a red check gauges light this week. stopped the engine and cycled the key before re-starting. the red light was gone. i also noticed that the injector noise is the same pattern/frequency as the high beams. i've cleaned the batteries, including the contacts/terminals, which didn't make...
