Concept we studied in church today. God prescribes some things, allows some things to happen. But is in control of everything. We should grow in soul and spirit when bad things happen. He is even in control of the devil. People sometimes question why God would allow terrible things...he has a plan that we are not privy to. No suffering here on earth can compare to the blessings we will receive in heaven. Love and peace to you all!

I see no way for water to siphon back up over the top of the engine unless the water is up to the valve cover. Then you got real problems. Do the mod as shown above. It's easy!

I ordered a deck from Crutchfield. Should be here soon. A lot more advanced than my old deck. Bluetooth and all. CD rather than cassette. Only thing I used the cassette for is the adapter to plug in the iPhone. Thanks for the heads up on the ground.

Welcome. Best forum you could choose for your new purchase. Congrats!

Will the scan gauge mileage functions work when the fuel sending unit is bad?

The OBD link is worthless. Who doesn't provide use on an iPhone these days?

you and me both, brother!

Makes sense to tap in to each system once and not have multiple taps every time you add an accessory. This should be a first mod you do. An electrical investment into the future.

Left front tire wears great. I might take it in for an alignment. I know it is in need for a major parts replacement up front.

I hit a boulder and my steering wheel is off center now and pulls to the right. Hope it's adjustable. My truck has pulled a little to the right since I've owned it. I got 55,000 miles on my BFG KO's. Rotating often and side wear was spread out on 4 tires and so impact was marginal.

That's a really good idea. Where do you locate the block?

Looking awesome! Thanks for sharing with us. Been following with interest. Although I doubt I would ever do such a project myself. Hopefully won't ever be necessary.

Oh yeah, I was talking about flushing while brake calipers are off and bleeding after they are replaced.

Awesome! For you gadget guys, consider a Motive brake fluid changer. Pump up sprayer and cap that fits on the master cylinder. No pumping of the brakes. Just open bleeder screws and let er rip. You can also bleed brakes by yourself without the need for a person pumping the brake pedal.

My special press was a 2" piece of PVC pipe and a hammer. My Pistons didn't have any metal on them. But I've got 2 piston calipers on all 4 wheels.

Can you get them in 8 track?

Sounds like a good place to start. Does it come with a wiring harness to fit our trucks? What about face plate to make it look decent?

Saving $60 in caliper cost is pretty good for an hour of work to rebuild. Plus once you do it you'll be more likely to maintain them more frequently. It's like $4 per caliper for seal kit.

I have an am/fm cassette factory sound deck. Non premium. I've got speakers right left and front rear intermittently cutting out. Bad deck or wiring issues likely?

kinda like the idea of a drain line for the Bypass oil filter too. Keep spillage of oil down. Seems to take me 15 minutes just to ge the truck off the ground. Can we do this without jacking the truck?

mike, Are you running the 3" stock exhaust with a resonator and no muffler? Wondering if I could just cut out the front muffler, replace it with an FTE resonator and eliminate the stock resonator? I think I'd need some reducers to match the change in stock pipe sizes.

It's 92 here today. Probably 100 tomorrow. Private fireworks are spooky.

Soon you'll look back and you'll be a grandpa. It goes fast! Congratulations! Just work on staying married! That's the hard part.

Am I to understand that the calipers for 2nd and 3rd gen brakes are the same? I just rebuilt mine. Looks like I can convert for $170 for the front + wheels. Are there any differences is master cylinders or hydraulic boost?

Does this have any business on a stock truck with 50 hp injectors?
