    Help Needed Wife moved truck for me, now stuck in driveway!

    Problem Solved! Thanks for all the suggestions. I tried moving the wheel as mentioned above, but couldn’t break it free. I even tried running a 3’ crowbar through the spokes for some extra leverage, but still no dice. What did work, me and another guy on each side of the wheel violently...

    Need to replace wheel bearing

    Thanks to all. Got it done and it’s running quiet and smooth again. Went to NAPA to get the parts and ended up having to buy the hub nut socket, couldn’t find a rental anywhere. It was $52! Oh well, at least I have for the next time. BBT

    Need to replace wheel bearing

    Noise, a rhythmic grind coming from the front left. Most noticeable when I let off the pedal and coast, can’t hear it too well when it’s rev’d up, though I can feel it through the bottoms of my feet. First noticed about 100-150 miles ago. I want to get it fixed tomorrow. D-60 with manual hubs...

    Getting P0237 code

    Thanks Rodney. I’ve printed the page for use this weekend. I don’t have a breakout box, so won’t be able to do the last two tests, but hopefully I’ll be able to get somewhere without it. Later, BBT

    94 chip install

    I've had mine out a few times and never pulled my tire or running board. There is a link somewhere for this, but couldn't find it now. Remove the fender liner fasteners in the approximately 11-12 o'clock to the 2-3 o'clock position(looking at the wheel well). Insert a prybar between the...

    I bought a PCM from Jody T. last month with the same flash. I am very happy with the result! I had a Banks chip before and the difference with the DP PCM put on the big grin:D !! BBT

    Yikes!! Can't get the hood up

    I tried to open my hood today but couldn't get it to budge. After releasing the latch you push down to fully let go, but it won't move down. Maybe I left something up there last time and it jammed, or perhaps my son sitting on it last night did it in, don't know. But I need to find a way to...

    Super Duty Springs in my ‘95?

    Hugered, Did I understand right, that you got six inches of lift with just the SD spring swap and the Sky kit? I’m not really interested in making my truck that much higher, the wife already complains about hauling herself up into it.:dunno I know that the Sky kit will give about a 3” lift...

    Super Duty Springs in my ‘95?

    Radar, Have you found the numbers from the springs you ordered? Or does anyone know how to cross reference the numbers on my springs to the year/model truck they came from? I’d just like to be sure before proceeding with this swap that I’ve got the right springs. Thanks

    Super Duty Springs in my ‘95?

    I’ve read somewhere about installing SD springs to improve the ride over what the stock OBS suspension provides. Anybody here ever done this? I found some SD springs today and bought them. They were cheap enough that even if they don’t work out, no biggie. The guy I bought them from told...

    Aftermarket LED Clearance Lights

    Check here for a way to get marker lights to flash with turn indicators. There may be other ways to do it, but this seems easy enough.

    Electrical - wiring - Switch Problem?

    Well, radio on, I pulled all the relays in the underhood fuse box one by one while the band played on - no change. Also tried the two relays in the box next to the underhood fuses. Are there other places I should check for a stuck relay? Hope everyone has had a great holiday! Thanks BBT

    Electrical - wiring - Switch Problem?

    Another day, another problem. A few weeks ago when I was having the CPS - Valve Cover Harness issues, these relatively minor but annoying symptons arose. 1. The radio no longer shuts off with the key in off as it has always done. 2. My US Gear exhaust brake no longer self-cycles when...
