This is my daily driver ‘95 auto. Recently I noticed almost a bind I guess I would call it. Take off from red light and truck would feel like it hits 2nd gear immediately then goes back to 1st and revs go up. Shifts normal once warm. Would only do that at the first red light of the morning...

After a couple years on the shelf I got my B&M gated shifter installed. After taking a test drive I realize lockup is not happening. (1k ohm resistor in temp sensor, stock TPS and PCM) possibly a random problem showing it’s face after the shifter but I’ve checked everything. Only thing that I...

Well, tractor was parked for 6 months. Dad decided to replace the fuel filters. I went through the manual and properly bled the filters, then the pump. I can not get fuel to the injectors. We tried pulling it down the road for the hell of it and nothing. I’ve searched all I can and can’t...

My truck came with 3g mirrors with amber led lights. Previous owner had them wired to the instrument cluster and I eventually noticed that they were dimming when I would dim the cluster. I’m looking to wire them up differently. Truck is a 95. After some digging I found a schematic and...

Got a nice Powr-Lok LSD out of my spare truck. I have NOT personally driven with this, but it looks to be in great condition and the spiders and cross pins look good. Guy I bought it from seemed like a straight shooter and said it operates like a power lock should. Pretty much a full locker if...

Anyone here going or can tell me if it’s a good time or is it going to be just the young bucks acting retarded? I’ve yet to go to a diesel event other than pulls because there isn’t much around here. Anyone here going? Any tips or opinions? I’ll be alone if I go. I have no friends interested...

Can anyone help me out with a picture of the bracket and cable where it attaches to the trans? It looks like the B&M supplied bracket is going to cause some issues with the fitting on my front hose. I’m using a 45° AN fitting and looks like a 90° fitting wouldn’t work or at least not well. I do...

I’ve read to the ends of the internet and specifically threads from this forum. Just figured I would ask. Might get called dumb but that’s ok haha Bought my truck with 4k governor springs installed. Don’t know the brand. Checked them yesterday and there was barely any stud protrusion and when...

Shot in the dark, but does anyone here have one they are not using nowadays and want to loan, rent, sale, sell or sail? Prefer one that would go in turbo inlet. Could test whole system in one shot then. My truck is not getting full fuel. Immediately changed filters and pre screen, checked...

Has anyone here ever dealt with out of spec camber on a solid front axle? They do make A part to correct it. Just never heard of this issue before. I have checked all the plug welds and looked over the entire housing for bending. Also, if it was bent I would suspect negative camber (tops of...

Looking for a late 2002 front differential cover with the breather vent. I know this is a long shot but it’s needed. This will be from a non-CAD, four wheel drive truck with a Dana 60.

Surprise surprise me again with dodge problems. I am having to pay a mechanic for the first time in my life. Front axle is destroyed so I took it to a well known guy for a rebuild. Well, the two piece passenger side shafts are torn to hell. Housing got messed up too where the bearing is...

Long story short, I had a hub lock up and ruin an axle. Replaced with entire assembly from rolling chassis I bought. Dumbass me checks fluid through fill hole and it looked good. Just below was solid mud apparently. 1000 miles later it's toast. Axle man has sourced all parts from dana other...

Pulled this off my truck and went to a bed mounted setup. Never leaked, no rust just some paint flaking. Threads for oil lines are perfect. Comes with mounting bracket. Have bolts as well if needed. $100

After lowering my truck the front axle is over to the passenger side a couple inches. I figure this might be a good time to buy an adjustable bar and also convert to a better frame side mount like the 3rd gen conversion. Is the 3g conversion still the best option out there? Any of you guys got...
