    Dash Lighting Problem...

    Question regarding changing these bulbs. The LED's (B8. 4D-W) are polarized... . so when inserting them through the circuit board, which way do I spin them and how much of a turn? Where are the contacts on the green board? For those that replaced their bulbs already, did you completely dismantle...

    FASS 95 install

    I mounted my FASS 95 in the Specified location, but it was a real pain in the arse. If you have a short bed, all I can say is good luck, the FASS provided instructions are absolute garbage, throw them away. What I can tell you is that I have the wheel liners installed, and so far nothing tragic...

    Irritating

    Starter was original, but I just installed a new flywheel/clutch from Southbend. Myself and a couple of guys helped me do the job. One of the guys works on heavy trucks, tons of knowledge and know how. I myself am no slouch when it comes to the wrenches. Not sure why it happened. Now, the after...

    Irritating

    Not asking for help or advice, just need to rant for a second. I just had a new starter/flywheel installed 21 Jul... . my new starter is already toast. It started the truck 3 times and is now shot. Truck is back in the shop again, had to pop the clutch to get it started so I could get it down to...

    SouthBend ConOFE NV5600 Problem....

    This is an interesting post, because I just had my starter and flywheel ring gear replaced. Here's what happened. Installed the SBC Con OFE about 2 months ago, and all of a sudden, when starting the truck, the starter began making a horrible noise. I only started it 3 times after the noise...

    Edge or Smarty?

    I started out with an Edge, but then borrowed a smarty from a friend and bought one a week later. In my opinion, driveability and low end torque is much better with the smarty. The edge is a good unit, I just feel the smarty is better.

    First Problem at 92K

    I recently installed a new Southbend clutch (CON OFE), along with their flywheel, did the job about 2 months ago, give or take. While out in Surprise AZ looking for a home to purchase, my starter began acting up and making an odd racket/not engaging. After getting the truck started and making my...

    FASS/ISSPRO Install Observations

    I did my FASS 95/95 yesterday, it works great. Now the irritating part: I own a short bed truck which means the instructions are absolutely worthless. The mounting bracket has to be heavily modified in order to be installed properly. I am extremely disappointed in the quality of instructions for...

    Ignition Wire Identification

    I already tapped the dimmer wire for the gauge lights, but didn't want to tap again off the light switch as these switches have been known to melt down. I will try the cig lighter, thats a good idea, but mine is constant power to the one in the dash, even when the key is off. Is there a way to...

    Ignition Wire Identification

    I need some help. I have a new Optix EGT gauge, and I need to locate a wire off of the ignition that has constant power once the ignition is turned to the ACC or Start position. I know the colors of the wires change fairly often as they build these trucks, mine is an 04½ built in March of 2004...

    Southbend Con OFE Install

    I would say it's definitely a 2 man job, 3 is a bonus when re-installing because you can have one guy at the rear pushing and 1 on each side adjusting/stabilizing. I removed the transfer case as it was very easy to remove and get it out of the way. The transmission is large/heavy enough as it...

    Southbend Con OFE Install

    Finally got it in, It's been sitting in a box in my garage for almost a year. Thats what happens when you get newborn twins. Anyway, the install went extremely well, no hiccups. I won't go as far as to say it was easy, because it wasn't. It's a minimum 2 men with mechanical ability job, 3 is...

    Ansa/Silverline Exhaust Questions

    I too am interested in this system. I'm tired of hearing my straight pipe duals (V'd off the cat) which sounds like a Cessna taking off unless i'm under heavy load, then they sound good, very deep. Does this system produce a nice deep sound when not under heavy load?

    Di Pricol Pyro Gauge

    Fellas, My Pricol pyro gauge just broke on me. The center white dot that is glued/stuck to the inside of the glass fell off and is lodged against the indicator needle which inturn won't allow the needle to give a reading. I bought it from Geno's about 4 years ago. Does anyone know what the...

    Updating Smarty

    Allright, not sure how it worked, but it did. I erased everything I downloaded and re-downloaded again (4th time), unzipped everything, completely skipped the first half of the directions where you type in file paths and all that garbage. Went straight to the usb. exe program and it started...
