rebuilt my transfer case a few months ago and had this left over... been forgetting to ask y'all wtf it is: it hasn't exploded yet, and she still works fine. the shifting into 4wd can be difficult sometimes... sometimes i have to slam it into 4hi before i can get it into 4low. otherwise i...

if i take a truck and put it on a dyno and measure torque and amount of fuel burned per minute (or hour), they would go up proportionately - more air/fuel means more torque. but under normal driving conditions, guys get larger injectors and increase air flow to increase MPGs... so if i change...

just takled to a stealership parts department about power steering pumps. they want over $200 for the pump/reservoir/pulley combo (won't sell it in parts). about as retarded as i thought it'd be from them. but, he said something interesting - apparently there will shortly be a re-designed pump...

water pump = fail. just replaced it in march, too. looks ok, not much play, but the weep-hole was weeping. found this stuff in the fluid i drained. should i be worried?

...but i just bought a new 3rd gen OE 17" wheel (been rolling w/o a spare for a while now). it looks like the chrome is just... attached to the wheel. anybody tried peeling that layer off? possible? stupid-looking afterwards?

i've been staring at a 2nd gen turbo for a couple months now and am sick of waiting to put it in my '03 (moving will delay things, i suppose). need to verify a couple measurements, though, before i start ordering rubber. 1. compressor inlet = 4" 2. compressor outlet = 3" 3. what is CAC inlet...

so i just put a new valair nodular iron dual disk in front of my nv5600 (http://www.valairinc.com/performance/images/nmu70nv45ddn.jpg). i didn't really have a chance to do a good break-in - about 75 miles of unloaded, in-city, then 350 miles @ 5,000 lbs and then 200 miles @ 7,0000 lbs. so now...

found this thread: Help diagnose where the slop is.. - Competition Diesel.Com - Bringing The BEST Together not really sure this ever got solved? i have the *exact* same lash. no carrier bearing, and i just replaced bearings/seals in the nv271. u joints are next on the list, but it seems like...

alright. another question from the n00b gallery: is there a special, thin-bodied torx bit for the FCA bolts?? the part of the bit that fits over the drive on my ratchet (1/4") is so fat that it hits the body of the FCA and prevents solid engagement with the bolt head. i could muscle it out with...

well gents, i know this isn't anything special, but i figured someone somewhere might appreciate it being here... maybe... New Fuel Filters had to put it on the (crappy) website because the (crappy) iPhone pics were too big. credit for the inspiration (read: all the ground work for this thing)...

i feel exactly as n00by as i am starting a thread about this (you know what i'm talking about: "haaaalp! i want a sweet truck, but i want you to spell out how i should get it there!"). however, i've read enough random posts on the matter that i think i'm developing a brain aneurism. :nail: i'm...

so i picked up a boost fooler recently (quadzilla). for some strange reason it throws a P0113 code every time i plug it in. well - it worked alright when i first plugged it in and drove home with it. but it's consistent now. no fooler, no problem. fooler, "Intake Air / Charge Temperature...

I'm transferring to Fort Benning soon - down the street from your shop! I'm excited about this. My truck (in sig) was previously a thoroughly-abused farm truck (got it in TX). Everything listed has been added essentially just to keep it alive - with an eye towards bringing it back to life...
