    front brakes

    I can't tell if you are trying to say your abs and brake lights are both on or neither of them are on. It says they were not on, but then you say you pulled the abs fuse. I suppose to make it cut off. If the lights are not on, simply get the rotors turned to get rid of the vibration and...

    BFG All Terrain T/A's on your 2500

    yeah. I may run bfg all terrains on my stock wheels for towing and long hauls, but for price and looks, you can't beat $50 for hummer wheel and tire. And the fact that the inset of those wheels allows you to clear 36" meats with no lift and no rubbing. (on 2500 4x4) but then again they aren't...

    jello in fuel filter?(help!)

    thanks guys! i had 3 responses before i got a chance to logoff! I have read about algae in the fuel, but I don't recall it being described as jello, so I wasn't sure what was going on. Athens is kinda landlocked, so any ideas about where to get biocide besides marine supply store?

    NEED HELP !!!! Mallory takes a dirt nap and damage to my front universals

    Wow!Your day went from bad to worse! Was it a bearing cup from your Ujoint or was it flat? If it kinda looks like a socket, I wouldn't drive it because its a bearing cup and you don't have manual locking hubs, so your wheels spin the axle shafts when you drive... the ujoint may spit the other...

    hopefully, someone will still read this post and know enough to answer. (if you don't know then don't make something up)... . I did run 5 gal kero/ 5gal diesel mix twice before I got around to posting. (not right in a row. ) Now I'm all paranoid about burning up my injector pump. Was that enough...
