  1. I dont know about you boys up north but we are plagued with mosquitoes down here. My brother came over the other day and said he saw a DynaTrap billboard so I did some research and Sam's had the best price so I just went and got one. Im hoping to see some results in a week or so and ill llet yall know how it works. https://dynatrap.com/products/
  2. I like it better than the 3rd gen style. My 2012 had these mirrors and I liked them alot. It will take some getting used to since the large passenger side mirror is flat instead of convex, but the larger convex mirrors are nice.
  3. Not the best pics since it’s in the driveway but here they are.
  4. Got the trans drained today. The fluid that came out had a nice goldish color as it came out but was pretty dark once in the jug and only had 4 qts in it. The new fluid went in through the shifter and shifting feels good, about the same as before.
  5. I returned the used mirrors monday and my account was credited back early tuesday morning. I re-ordered the same mirrors from the same company (Yitamotor) and they arrived today. Although I watched the UPS man carry them to the house next door, they came in great condition. Install is fairly simple and im very happy with the new mirrors. In the down position, the driver side is rock solid and the passenger side has a minimal vibration, I think the stock sport mirrors I removed had more. In the up position the both have a little shake to them but not a deal breaker by any means. One thing I see alot of people talking about it cutting the top stud on the driver side so it doesnt interfere with the electric mirror switch but I found it would interfere either way so I took a razor blade and cut down some of the glue and plastic on the back side of the switch and it all fit perfectly. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend them to yall.
  6. Stopped off at Blumenthal in Oklahoma City for some lube for the nv4500. They tell me they worked with Chrysler or new venture to make the correct 75w85 gl4 oil. I ran this years ago in my first 98 and it worked good. I’m gonna get it swapped out after work tomorrow. $15.99 per qt
  7. Hold off on ordering https://www.amazon.com/YITAMOTOR-Mirrors-Compatible-1998-2001-1998-2002/dp/B01M1JU6M2/ref=pd_ybh_a_8?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=FENBKXTK0MXCN48X3MCQ I received the mirrors yesterday and upon opening them this morning, they are used. I guess someone didnt like the way they functioned or they may have stopped working, so they returned them. They have scratches from being ran through a bush and bug remaines on them too. I hope this was a mix up and not they way they do business now days. They are boxed up and ready for return tomorrow. I'll let everyone know how it goes with the return and if I order another set.
  8. I put on a set of 3rd gen mirrors 10 or so years ago and remember the studs were short on those as well. I ordered a set of 4th gens that are supposed to be here saturday.
  9. Here you go Mike https://www.amazon.com/YITAMOTOR-Mirrors-Compatible-1998-2001-1998-2002/dp/B01M1JU6M2/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
  10. Im going to order a set like hdpwipmonkey has.
  11. 98-99 will both work. Last time I "loaned" out a spare ecm, it never came back. Time to get out and make some friends
  12. Would be nice if you had a buddy with an ecm you could borrow for a day or two.
  13. If your getting the trail ridge from a1 auto, I would highly suggest the 4th gen style over the 3rd gen style. The convex mirror is larger and more useful. I have had those on my wish list for a while but other things keep coming up first. @hdpwipmonkey that is a great price on those mirrors! They dont shake a bit in the up position while going down the road?
  14. Great, I was waiting to hear back from you before I shipped. I go back to work wednesday and I'll get you cost.
  15. Neil, send me your email and I’ll send you some pics to make sure this assembly has what you need
  16. Got an email from pick-n-pull this morning and they are having a memorial day sale so I went junk yard dogging and picked you up a passenger side seat belt from a 99 for $10.
  17. Ive never seen a seatbelt light in my 98 12v at all. Ill head out to a yard in the next few weeks and see if I can come up with a couple.
  18. You need that whole assembly or just the solenoid? What size torx and does the little plastic cover that goes on the seat and the belt slips through, just pry off? I would go take mine apart but then ill break it and have to find two. Passenger assembly only or both sides?
  19. Send me a pic of what your looking for and where its actually located in the seat and I'll find you one next time im in a wrecking yard.
  20. Neither the ECM or PCM should keep it from starting. I dont think you actually need the NSS grounded either. Did you make sure the auto shifter was in P or N?
  21. Your KPL must be horrible! had a problem like yours years ago and my mpg went up over 3 mpg when I got it back up to operating temp
  22. As far as I understand, the 1500 boxes are identical, except with e quicker ratio. Mike has a quicker ratio box and likes it but also runs smaller tires. Ryan wants to send you the same ratio box that you send in, in order to keep his cores the same. I would call him and ask to make sure its the same box though.
  23. They are all rebuilt boxes, whether he rebuilds yours and returns it to you or you may get my core, either way, same box. Go to a junk yard and get one out of a half ton truck and send it in for a rebuild, 3&1/4 turn box would be nice. This 4 turn i have is a good box but I think the quicker ratio box would drive better.
  24. Ive got pioneer 6x9's and a kenwood stereo.
