    No Tach, No charging from Alt either

    Thank you guys SOOO much! I went out there to try those things, and guess What!? I eventually dropped the male end (that leads down to the sensor)... and I was like "okay, where'd ya go?!"... then I found it (granted it IS dark here right now, and i was using my new LED lights to find my way...

    No Tach, No charging from Alt either

    Hey there, maybe you guys can direct me. I just put a new Everstart 1000 CA battery in the truck 2 weeks ago. The truck was fine, until now. Last weekend my tach stopped working... then it flickered on a little, then it maxed out at 4k, then it just stopped altogether again. Then, I noticed my...

    1st gen vs 3 gen

    New or Old? I too wonder about the choice to get a 1st gen or 3rd. I recently purchased a '93 D250, it has great power and really gets the job done. But, my only quam with older vehicles is the electrical gremlins! I seem to spend soo much time on older vehicles with trailer wiring, lights...

    Trying to Locate P/N 4428549 VSS adapter

    I am trying to locate this adapter (P/N 4428549) to fit in between the VSS and the trans. on my truck. I ordered one from the dealer, and they just told me today that they are now out of stock and on backorder with no est. delivery date. Do any of you know where I can get this part? I have a 3...

    Borgeson 940 or 943? one or Two U-Joints, Rag or not?

    I am looking at Borgeson's site and Summits site and our advertiser at dodgesteering.com. They all have a 'one u-joint' 940 (regular duty) shaft and a 'two u-joint' 943 (Xtreme duty) shaft. It says you can do the 2 joint if your Rag Joint is removable from the steering column. The rag joint is...

    Bigger Tires

    You can check out the load ratings on TireRack, but I have had great experience with the MICHELIN LTX M/S. The last a while, are very smooth, they are just an all around quiet and quality tire. I had the LTX A/T on my last diesel (GMC) and they were more rugged and offroaded pretty well, but I...

    Friend got a 6.0 - GARBAGE

    Okay, I'll admit, I am a college student, and 22 yrs. old. But, already I have owned a 6. 5L Chevy ('94 Z71 2500) and am very close with a racer friend who has a '97 F250 7. 3L. So, I do have a bit of experience and knowledge of each truck. The 6. 5L was surely a mistake by chevy, I have heard...

    New "Special" Volkswagon TDI engine oil

    Yeah, I have a 2003 tdi as well, I have done some research and found some interesting things out. Up to 2003, the spec is 505. 00, there are also some "C" ratings to go by as well, but the dealer recommends (and has some kind of contract with) Castrol Syntec 5w40 (which I have seen on the label...

    Speedometer Reading WAY TOO HIGH!!! Just installed new sensor

    Thanks for that insight. The truck is not within reach of me right now, so I am going to try to go to the dealer today and pick up an adapter, just guess that the rear end might be 3. 54, that sounds like a common ratio, and it does have the OE tires. I am trying to get the truck ready for a...

    Speedometer Reading WAY TOO HIGH!!! Just installed new sensor

    Well, I think I have figured out something from the old posts already. I did not put any kind of 'gear reducer' on before just screwing on the VSS. I guess I need this. Is this a part that is the same across all the trucks, or do I need to know my gearing of the rear end? Also, when the VSS...

    Speedometer Reading WAY TOO HIGH!!! Just installed new sensor

    Okay, so I just got this truck and... the speedo/odo/cruise was not working, so I went up under there to check the VSS on the back of the transmission. I saw a 2 wire harness dangling down, and a hole with threads, and nothing attached. So I figured for some reason the VSS was not present anymore. I...

    New Owner--Few Problems; fuel leak, no speedo, loose steering

    Thanks for the exhaust info there. I do have a small 110V MIG welder that maybe I could use to fabricate some hangers. I saw those headlights on ebay and was wondering about them myself... I have not checked out the ones at Wal-Mart yet, I will see what those Sylvania's look like before I order...
