YeA yEA

Well ended up getting a new project this week. Picked up a 1997 Honda CRV for 500 bucks! Needs a little work and a water pump and some body work. All power and leather also All wheel drive. Gets 25 city 30 hy. Plans are to get it running and drive it to work and class and allow me to get the transmission out of the dodge to rebuild.

What all do yall sell?

Thanks for all the help guys! So I got a bit of luck and picked up a 1997 Honda CR-V for $500 all it needs is new plugs waterpump and timeing belt. So Im going to beable to let the truck sit a while so I can save up to get it done the first time.

So your wanting to replace the cig lighter port with a 12 Volt port like the one below it?

Sent the guys at DTT a email so well see what happens. Thanks Guys!

I got yall. Im going to get under there and try the cover plate thing am I just looking for a crack or something? Also what a bout a 5 speed conversion? I know its more involved but I could make it work If I got the parts cheap enough. I just need to go do more research on how the auto work and how to take it apart and what not. Im not afraid to get down and dirty with this truck. --- Update to the previous post... Also Ill try and get a video of the truck and the noise it makes.

Aite, so Im going to explain the problem I have and the resources I also have. Tell me what you would do If you where in my shoes.Truck is a 2001 Dodge 2500 Auto. The torque converter is going out. The truck has 310,XXX Miles. All stock on the Transmission. Shifts fine and not really slipping but between 1100-1200 RPM's the transmission makes a LOUD rattling noise. The truck is my DD and I work every day but Sat. I have a back up car but its my fathers so I could not use it to long.About me, 2 Jobs, Full time college student. Can turn a wrench and get dirty but have very very limited tools. Have at most 2 grand to spend the less the better. Im located in Texarkana, TX in case any one wants to Help out. If I do it my self it would have to be quick.Plans for the truck. Light towing (Party boat, Atvs) Around town driving.. Looking to upgrade turbo, head studs, Injectors down the road.If you where in my shoes what would you do?

Not much done this last week. Just added the DB sticker to the tool box. Need to get a cummins forum and mopar man sticker lol. Tomorrow I'm going to start working on my install of my storm chasing gear. Cb, Ham 2 meter, Light controller, Lights, siren speaker/controller and the center console hump mount.

50 of them seen today. Im a local storm chaser for my county we got lucky.

The problem with wvo is company's are paying for it. Most every where has contracts for the stuff because its required by law to have a certified disposal of the oil. I would like to get in to highly filtered and cleaned Waste motor oil but every where I asked said it all goes in the same tank.

Mines work great until it starts getting 100+ out side the. It's like pissing in the wind. Sent from my iPhone

Chat room is open NOW!!

Yea cup holder in these trucks are junk! And I have a ton of crimps. I was using wire at first but is was not holding so I said screw it and got some cable at the local lowes. Best part is they just gave it to me! said it be to much trouble to get in to the computer. Also the wheels hold up great! the only problem i have is when they pop'ed the wheel off the rim it messed a little of it up. But on the other hand all i had to do is cut off the bad part and respray the bad area. Easy and cheap!

For the xm I jb welded the stand to the little tray that is right there beside the radio. The lights are LEDs with sticky tape on the back. And the radio is in a mounting bracket I picked up off of eBay. Speakers are in the factory holes. Sent from my iPhone

Ive used them all. Windows 2000, Xp, Vista, and 7. Xp was the best... Still is now I use 7 and its ok. Way better than Vista. Use mac os at work and Linux to run web pages. Being A+ Certified I work on mostly windows.

Got the 2500 and SLT badges off today dident have time to get the black trim off. Used a heat gun and a pine paint stick you get at lowes with paint. I took the Pine stick and sanded it to a point to help scrap the sticky off. It worked great! did not mess up the paint or anything. I still have a bit of stuff stuck on the pass door but it will come off soon. Before Getting the 2500 off. Heres the Finished Product! Also Got them SLT Badges off easiest of the bunch.

I live in Texarkana we get nothin.
