Oh, hell...Where to start. I haven't been around here in forever. So, I'm getting hitched in 2 weeks (yay!) and was surprised with a new (to me) truck the other night. I ditched the Dodge to some poor kid a month or so back and moved into an '05 GMC. I feel so much more refined! :cheer: Why...

5" dual mitre cut chrome stacks. Welded as one piece unit with an in-bed y-pipe set up. Well used, but in fine shape. Only ugly part is the y-pipe that I've melted numerous soda bottles and ice bags to, thus a few small plastic remnants remain. You, too, can have that kind of fun for the low...

Smarty for '98.5-'02 Dodge Ram, used $500 OBO PM Dirtyblonde or email natalierussell@netzero.com

Hi guys... I've got the Walbro 392 inline lift pump on my giant pile of crap and the pump has died..Which then killed my VP44. Soooo, I need a replacement pump ASAP. I won't bore you with my sob story, but I start a new job with an hour commute Tuesday and I find this all out at 5 on Friday...

Yo, got my headlight installed. Now onto oddity #762 for this truck: Re-installed my Smarty to a 7 last night after having it out for about two weeks. Started the truck up this morning, let 'im warm up, headed down the driveway, stopped on a slope and suddenly it got quiet. Like "Hey, either...

...I'm not kidding. SO, it was time again to replace a bulb and as usual when that time rolls around, I can get the light out in 20 seconds, but re-installing it is a cruel joke played on the consumer by Dodge. Is there some super simple trick I've missed for the last three years as to how to...

In the midst of running errands today, I came back to my truck and found that when I tried to start it...It made one lame atttempt and that was it. No start. I turned the key again, and nothing. No turning over, no dash lights, no charge, not a thing except for the brake light on the dash...

Hi Guys, I'm on a mission this evening and in the name of not missing any, I'd appreciate a listing of all the ground wire locations you can think of. 98.5 2500. And no, I can't find my manual.... Thanks!

The truck made it 2600 miles between here and CO and took a crap. Go figure. I had trouble (out of the blue) starting twice in Colorado (those of you kind enough to lend me a jump will remember) then everything was fine the entire way home. Wednesday AM I went out to go to work and the truck...

I noticed the other day, sitting in construction, that since I got my truck back with the tranny re-build that when sitting in Drive with my foot on the brake, or Park that the truck will idle great (purr like a tiger, if you will) for a bit, then idle rough (not super rough, but enough that you...

It's not so much a question of what...But WHY? In early Feb. of this year my stock transmission finally ate it, and it was replaced with a re-built tranmission that received a BD Valve Body & T/C, brand new set of clutches, and so on and so forth. During a pull in Vegas the darned thing...

I installed a new Isspro boost gauge about a month ago and noticed that I had oddly low boost (like ohhhh 12 psi tops) Then I decided to check into the lift pump to make sure it wasn't a fueling issue... Welp, it was. Or so I thought. My pump tested bad and I installed a Glacier 392 kit...

Riddle me this: I re-installed my CB radio last night, wired it straight to the batt. w/ an inline fuse and on/off at the radio, woke up this morning to a low voltage gauge. Drove to work, no problem, came home 5 hours later with no problem starting, but still showing low voltage, got home...

So who's headed to the Hollister pull this weekend and does anybody have exact location information? My computer's being screwy, or I'm pushing the wrong buttons, and can't get the links on the csspulling.com website to work. Thanks! Nat

Hey there! So I talked to (Oh, Geez...I'm terrible with names!) Tom?, I think! (With the silver Cummins tattooed in Big Power Diesel) at the pull yesterday in Newman and he told me I should come on over and check y'all out. Soooo, here I am! Quick rundown: Hi! I'm Natalie (Nat), from Grass...
