Forgot to add: The advantage of the pig-tail units is that once the bulb is locked in, it can be rotated 360 degrees in the headlight bucket. Helps you set the optimal beam pattern regardless of using projector or reflector housings.

These are the replacement bulbs. They are the same rating as the previous ones but, these units utilize a pig-tail vs. direct plug in like the old ones. These also have a much larger fan. 60W 9006 HB4 LA Plus Series | 6,000LM 6000K LED Bulbs Older style w/ direct plug in. Still used in some...

Noticed the passenger side low-beam was dead. Seems I just put in bulbs but, after a records search, I purchased them in Dec of 2023 so, considering how long Halogens last, about normal lifespan. Unfortunately, only a 1 year warranty so, no joy there. Replacing bulbs has always been a grill...

Codes? Cylinder misfire would set a code but, not necessarily illuminate the Check Engine light.

I'm using the OEM Diesel Tank Sock. Marty, I'm glad the sending unit is working as advertised for ya. Did you buy the full replacement unit or just the metrum rod?

On sale, about $16. The $145 unit is just the rod. I have that and in my case, made the bouncing needle look more like a pole dancer twitching next to an ATM that only dispensed $1 bills. I also dislike the fuel levels represented. Too long to explain fully. Just suffice it to say, I have...

Flea Bay's where I got my Kit, CKO to be fair but, it works well. There's a few claiming to be originals too. FWIW, Had to get a replacement part and was able to go to the Vetronix/Bosch site to source it. Did the same to get a friend an OBD II adapter after they'd misplaced theirs. Now he has...

Tech 2 scanners, when bought as a kit, come with the adaptors that allow for connection to either OBD 1 or OBD 2. There are a lot of connectors, adaptors and such as CAN etc. that come with the kits.

Or, difference between K1500 GM400 vs K2500 (IIRK BigT upgraded to GM800 too)

At least, when it happened, you weren't approaching a 90 degree curve to the left with a truck that suddenly only goes straight...through the curve's run off gravel...towards a steep drop off. Good thing it wasn't at night in late November and snowing...no...wait.....

Windshield developed a leak on the passenger side specifically and the headliner felt of moisture above the driver’s door. Since repainting is in the long range plan I had the windshield removed and then addressed any rust on the frame. The glass guy was amazed at how easily the glass came...

Thanks for the Hood amigo. Hope to use it in its original color…. We’ll see.

Road Trip to Kingman to grab a 24’ trailer to help my buddy haul some stuff back down there next week. We linked up for fuel in Cedar City UT. Before he headed home for another load. He’s got some stuff here in the Salt Lake Valley I’ll take back down to him. I grabbed the stuff from a...

Someone was in there after you were and got the lever off the seat back. I usually scarp those up whenever I see them. Honestly, I was surprised to see the cup holder as that's a rare item anymore too.

I'm willing to bet you've got what I used for a work around until I found this one. Weird how there are so many versions, even of the same thing. I pulled the slide out cup holder from the 95 in the yard and even it is slightly different from the one I'm replacing in my 96.

Got the swap done. The one I pulled from the yard is slightly different but it works just fine. Probably because it was for a bench seat vs. the bucket seats I have. Nice to have things back to normal again. Now to address the other little things....

Here’s a couple of Screen Captures of our first pass from the Gear Head live feed on You Tube.

My driver’s side seat track, left side lost one of the rollers so the seat rocks forward. With the extended cab, the track has a release set up so that a lever on the seat back will simultaneously release both the seat back to allow it to fold forward and the seat bottom slides forward with...

Back at the races today. El Mirage Dry Lake Bed (20 miles NW of Victorville) where the SCTA runs pretty much once a month from May to November. Trying to get the 1500cc Diesel Stream Liner record set. 140mph min to establish the record. Instead of miles available at Bonneville, records at El Mo...

Back on the Salt Flats. Hopefully we don’t get rained out tomorrow. Not crewing on any cars this event. Just hanging out with the owner of the streamliner and Bill Heath. Lending a hand with another team here and there. Racing the liner at El Mirage CA next weekend though. Anyone in the area...
