    strange surprise under the hood

    both my trucks have chipping/discoloring/wasting away oil caps. figured its was just heat and age breaking down the plastic. Guess I should replace them. Anyone have a coll billet oil cap or something other than stock?

    Stacks for bill

    If the tips if the stack were 'slash' cut instead of 'turn downs' it would look better. Little more clearance to the running board would be a plus. Nice use of leftover parts though. old school hotrodding at its best. Bill

    Under-utilized forum

    Hey Bill, Gimme a holler and I'll give you a hand with yours if you give me a hand with mine. I have a sonnax/tricumulator kit to deal with too if your up for it. FYI, I'm STILL waiting for those overload spring snubbers. Been 1 month and 1 day plus about 10-12 long distance phone calls...

    Traction bar snubbers wasted!

    Well, it didn't work out quite as I had hoped. After placing the order on Fri morning the 18th. They did not arrive until 5-31. Upon opening the box, they shipped me part number 9.5156 not 9.9156. I rec'd sway bar bushings for a 3/4 " sway bar.:confused: After 4-5 phone calls about it I...

    Traction bar snubbers wasted!

    I hope its right too. They shipped yesterday so I'm told (though I ordered them on Fri morning). Not sure, but maybe the dirt/gravel road going to the cabin in the Arkansas mountains is harder on them and results in premature failure:confused: . We're going back up there Thurs afternoon, so...

    Traction bar snubbers wasted!

    Thanks I found those on the energy suspension site but I couldn't find a dealer that had them. Put the order in today so maybe they'll arrive next week before I head to the mountains for the holiday. Bill

    Nissan going diesel

    I've been telling my buddies for a while if they automakers could make a small diesel to fit in a 1/2 ton truck that got close to 30 mpg, still tow and haul reasonably, they'd sell every one of them. Texas is king of trucks. I know I could not live without mine.

    steering shimmy when braking

    As far as I know they are original. Close to 70K on the meter. Tires are relatively new. We did the Pirelli Scorpion's thing during the recall

    steering shimmy when braking

    On a recent trip to Arkansas, noticed this problem with the wife's rig. First thought was warped brake rotors but I dont feel an oscillation in the brake pedal. It's definitely coming through the steering wheel and only does it during braking? Any ideas. I refuse to let Ford fix it for what...

    sub box for a 05 crew cab

    Don't know that there is a prefab one for a crew cab. If you can't find a spot to put a big box, you might try a local car audio shop to see if they can custom build something

    north texas biodiesel

    Its not necessarily a health violation to fry a non ready to eat food. its just that if its pre-cooked, it greatly reduces the chance of food-born illness due to a chance of undercooking. I'm sure the good students of wylie get plenty of french fries and chicken nuggets just like every other...
