    Clutch Problems Please Help!

    Wow, it's been almost a year. I got deployed to Iraq and haven't been able to get on here much. Turns out it was the fork. Not only was it bent. It was MANGLED. I went into a local transmission shop to price a clutch kit last year and ... as soon as you walk in ... they have bulletins on...

    Clutch Problems Please Help!

    Pdt, Iv'e had the same happen to me in my old Ranger. But this time .... there's no driving it. It will start in gear ... but not drive. No way I can shift it to another gear without shutting her down. Besides, the reservoir is full and there are no leaks. Frankenstein, lots of...

    Clutch Problems Please Help!

    Ok thanks Joe. I'll check the sponsors ... but I still wonder if my truck has the solid flywheel or dual. I guess I wil see once I get it all out. As far as the whole shop deal ... I would have taken it to my dad's garage, but I cant get the truck to move. I have all the equipment to do...

    Clutch Problems Please Help!

    Hey guys, something in my drivetrain has finally broken on me. And it's serious. I can't get the truck to move without getting it started in gear. So now it's stuck in my driveway and I am having to work on it there.:eek: I read that a notorious problem is the clutch fork breaking, as it is...

    2008 Bed on a '99

    Yes it is an insurance deal. Thanks for the link, but I will be needing a white bed. Cost to paint the bed will offset this whole deal. Fortunately, there is a company on eBay that sells nothing but new white takeoff beds. I guess most work trucks that are turned into maintenence trucks or...

    2008 Bed on a '99

    You would get a bed from a j/y and put on an '08 gate? If they are paying for a new bed .... why not go ahead and get a whole new takeoff '08 bed? The cost is about the same either way. Thanks for the info. 02. I am starting my search for the cheapest white '08 bed I can find...

    2008 Bed on a '99

    Will it all be a direct swap out? (bed, bumper, etc.) School bus hit me and I need a new bed. Also ... do you guys think this (using a newer style bed) would actually decrease resale values?

    Tinted my windows!!!

    Wow, you guys are getting good deals. I was quoted by 3 different shops today that it would be $140 to do my 2 doors and rear window (regular cab). Asked for 5% rear and 15% sides. I need to look around more.

    F-250 or F-350 Shocks?

    Thanks. So are the 350 ones better? I think the P.O. put 350 stuff on the truck anyway, but I am not sure. Mine sits higher in the rear than other 250 4x4's for some reason.

    F-250 or F-350 Shocks?

    This forum is engine/drivetrain. I see no suspension forum. Forgive me if this is the wrong place. I can get a set of 350 Bilstein shocks for cheaper than a set of 250 Bilstein shocks. Any drawbacks or advantages to this? I know the fronts are the same ... but the rears are...

    Finally Replaced Parking Brake Cable

    It shouldn't be too bad, but you will have to mess with the hood latch part as well if you are going to replace the entire assembly, because the hood latch is integrated with the same bracket. Not totally sure how the hood latch part removes. I am glad I didn't have to do that. But like...

    Early '99 Exhaust ... Need Help ASAP

    For those skeptical of removing a cat ... I agree. There will always be visuals. And inspectors will always know (somehow) what specific truck are supposed to have a cat or not. However, no matter how laws change, I never foresee us having to do a sniffer test. Maybe the newer year...

    Finally Replaced Parking Brake Cable

    Yeah, it broke on me Saturday and I needed to get my truck inspected. What a PITA this was. When I FINALLY figured out how the PCM came out ... then the tough part started. For those with manual transmissions ... I especially hope you never have to do this. I was tempted to remove the...

    PCM Removal

    Got it now. You can delete this thread if you want. Problem was ... with my truck being a MANUAL ... you can not see the top bolt for the bracket because of the clutch pedal assembly. And wiring up there doesn't help, either. :( The thing I am pissed off about is that the...
