  1. If you want towing stability; why not go to 19.5" commercial wheels? Less sidewall flex. My truck tows much better with the 19.5's
  2. I had driven the truck 2 weeks prior and it did not pull. I knew the brakes were nearing end of service life at 145K; but had delayed the job.The brake pad on the worn side of the rotor still had material left on it. Wierd
  3. My 92 with the sister-in-laws tractor
  4. Nope, this is the whole brake pedal having side to side play and not releasing the brake light swich
  5. I installed my ISSPRO Electric gage 2 weeks ago using the "pulsation dampener" that Geno's Garage sells. I was not impressed. (My Naval Nuclear Power background and experience as a gage calibration technician) I went to the local industrial supply and bought a SS Ashcroft Gage Cnubber. WHAT A DIFFERENCE; smooth needle
  6. Stuck pin on Caliper. New Rotor and Pads. Lectured father on importance of regular inspections
  7. Here is the one that started my love affair with CTD's. Bought it off a used car lot for 2K, It is beat to s@%@%t; but has always played the game
  8. MY fathers 06 Mega-Cab with 145K. Came over tonight and said his brakes felt "funny". Popped off the wheel. Unfortunately I dont have time to do brakes for him, so off to the shop he goes!!!!!!! http://www.nopistons.com/forums/gallery2/gallery/album_36/gallery_2804_36_31148.jpg

  12. Well, NAPA failed me. Sent me a PCM instead of an ECM. Looks like I am shipping my ECM out for a rebuild
  13. ACK, Got home and they shipped me the PCM!!!! Thay dont have the ECM:banghead:
  14. e just got back from Myrtle Beach State Park, all sites were sold out every day. Reservations are a must anymore. Had to take the KIA, since the 99 is waiting for the ECM to arrive, and the 92 has no AC
  15. The adjustable pedal assembly on the 06 Mega-Cab has a lot of slop, so much that the brake light switch stays activated alot. Anyone else seen this issue?
  16. Glad to hear I am not the only one Joe; but sorry its happening to you. I just bit the bullet and ordered a reman from NAPA.
  17. Interesting pinout diagram. http://dodgeram.org/tech/dsl/ECM/figures/ecm.gif
  18. I'm going to clean the ground just to make sure before I shell out $400 for a rebuilt ECM; cant find a used one. :banghead:
  19. My lift pump takes 20-25 seconds to get power; I think thats too long. No Codes. Sign of Fubar PCM?:banghead:
  20. :hyper:Found a Rhino-Lined bed that is my color scheme for my truck, needs minor work compared to repairing the scraped side of mine.
  21. I found a problem in the harness today : A green/white wire and a red/white wire with abraded insulation/bare wire exposed. I used liquid tape as a temporary repair --- Update to the previous post... The two wires are located to the left of the white harness retainer
