I had to do ball joints last weekend, the right had been out before-no problem it came right out. I beat and cussed and tried every trick I could find here to no avail. It occured to me what the heck the ball joints are trash any how, sawzall-3 minutes both studs cut- hub and steering knuckle...

hi, guys I had two wheels broke on my 01 when I got it, had new tires put on and dealer told me about it. They were so small that they didn't leak for over a year. I found replacements at a tire shop (new take offs). They told me they see a lot of this, as wheels have became wider when you hit...

Hi all,I've had a pair of 55 watt lights on mine for years run direct from facrory wire with no problems. It certainly wouldn't hurt to have a relay,the bigger lights for sure. NPloysa- the generic 30 amp relays you see used are layed out all the same. There is usually a diagram on the side...

Hi, I need a wheel for an 01 2500. I wouldn't mind buying 2 if the price was right. Anyone within a couple of hours of Ft. Wayne In. , please e-mail me. Thanks Jim Norton -- email address removed --

Thanks Steve,I wondered about that. Jim

I'm seriously considering having a fire sale on this truck,you suppose it would be suspicious if I took all my stuff out just before it caugt fire? Anyone with any bright ideas I'd like to hear them. It developed a once in a while stumble/surge and has slowly gotten worse,and more regular...

Newf Limo,I'm getting a brain cramp trying to follow thru to the point of being able tell exactly where,but the "backwards" dim is probably due to the or. wire that goes to the heater control can feed back thru the mode select switch with all sorts of possibilitys. Look at 8w-42-4 in the manual...

Scott,I'm not sure on that exact relay but if you can see the bottom of it(where the wires connect),there should be 5 terminals on it,2 are for the coil wires, + and -, the other 3 are the contacs. If there are wires on 2 and one empty-the empty one will do what you want. On generic relays of...

The high beam indicater has a separate driver(fancy word they use in the manual for source)that isn,t affected by the dash light control. This is true for trucks with DRL a least,who knows why they don't dim it with the rest of dash lights. I don't have my manual nearby,but I know this circuit...

Yes they are alloys,and yes I put them back on for now at least. The tires that came off were stock size(265's)I put 285's on. We decided that the cracks were'nt new so I decided to try them and watch them? If the crack grows enough to leak then I'll have to bite the bullet for new,no warenty...

Something else to watch out for folks,I had tires put on the beast today and the mech. noticed two of the rims are cracked. Both cracks are on the inside bead-extending from the bead about 3/8ths of an inch,staight in towards the middle of the rim. They looked old-nothing that had just...

These little rollers tie up if you don't oil them regularly,I found a way to free them up. It takes some fiddling,but is easier than changing a hinge. Take a piece of emery cloth(sand paper might work-emery cloth holds up better) about 3/8ths wide and fold it in half lengthwise with the grit...

Blakers You might try BORLA for a stainless muffler. I'm not up on what they have but they're big into SUV exhaust systems. Jim

Curatchko, I put a Transgo kit in my 9812v and liked it. One thing I found was the instructions that TST added to the kit recomended not drilling out the holes in seperater plate as outlined in kit because of harsh shifting. I didn't drill them and wound up wishing I had,but then I wouldn't...

Wade,I noticed my pasenger side rear door wasn't latching on the bottom. The latch was stuck in open position andneeded cleaning,I tried to take out the screws from the bottom and found there is a nut on the inside as a jam nut. I don't remember sizes (this was the evening before leaving for...

well my lift pump died-50,000 miles,I ran another 400 hard miles on it to get home. It ran so good I figured it had to be the gauge, but showed 5 inchs of vacum instead of preasure. the local cummins auth. dealer got me one the same day and it's working fine,I wonder how long it will take...

Time to turn up the new toy(it's a whimp compared to the 12v. I traded in) I'm sold on the Power Edge EZ but want to get a valve body also. I hope I don't start a brand name war,but has anyone had trouble with DTT's products? Thier price on a kit- valve body and Edge EZ is hard to pass...
