I'm moving my post in regards to this subject from my thread about my 2.9 bogging down to here..:he more I've been reading the more I have begun to suspect it may be a faulty o2 sensor. I pulled the o2 sensor and did the " heat up with a torch and measure voltage test." Results are as...

Howdy all, So finished up (for the most part) installing my 2 inch body lift/ mount bushings. Transfer case shifter wont slide to the left and down for Neutral/Low range. Pretty sure the added body lift pushed the shifter up or something and its just hanging up somewhere on the cab body. Any one...

howdy, So I am about to get ready to finally complete my project and get my truck on the road. Had a question about running the mini spool in my 8.8. I plan on driving the truck a few days a week to work or out on the town and doing the whole weekend warrior thing when i can. Been reading an...

So I'm in the process of finishing up installing a 2 inch body lift on my 88. Was attaching the steering shaft extension and was having some difficulty fitting it over the shaft so gave it a few taps with a mallet to help slide the extension all the way up and onto the shaft. Anyways, after a...
