    Reman power steering box

    Thanks guys. Should have taken the damn thing to my mechanic to begin with. I hate having it sit. I knew i should have gone and gotten the "driest" factory box I could find at the junk yard :)

    Reman power steering box

    I replaced my power steering box about 8 months ago. It just recently has started acting like it has no fluid in it, and it is full. No leaks, or anything. Did I get a lemon?

    What is it worth

    Ramsey 8000lb winch worm gear. Needs remote and cable and maybe solenoids.

    I plan on doing this tomorrow. I have a 80 mile trip on sunday and need to make sure it's right haha. :Insane::Insane:

    I replaced the filter a day before this occurred, but i am not ruling out the fact that the tank maybe could have had some bad fuel in it still. Highly doubt it, but anything is possible I guess. thanks for the input.

    Oh, and I replaced the fuel line and filter when I replaced my carb. I was worried about bad gas so I ran a can of seafoam and ran out the old gas and have had fresh 93 in the tank.

    Learn something new everyday

    I wish I had some of you guys next door to me, for now this will do. I'm doing my best learning and try to figure some stuff out for myself. I do have a question though. As some of you know, I got a Holley 600cfm not long ago and have been working on getting my truck back in the...

    Which Holley

    I know many of folks use the 1406 Ed's but I must say, I hooked the Holley up and it has been like night and day difference. No tuning needed or anything. I had gotten pretty good at tuning the old 1406, and it just was never pleased with it. I am not writing off operator error, but I am very...

    Which Holley

    I'm sure it has been beat to death, but I have a 5.7l crate gm motor in my 86. I currently have a Edlebrock 1406. Never been a huge fan, it was just cheaper so I went with it when I put the V8 in my truck. I have some extra money, and would like to purchase a Holley. All my "mentors" have had...

    Been sitting

    I plan on doing that today. Luckily, I planned ahead before I parked it and ran it out of gas. I'll get a tank of 93 and seafoam, and a new filter, and see where that puts me.

    Been sitting

    Hope everyone is doing well. My truck sat for about 8 months and only got cranked maybe 6 times. I have it back driving (F a reman power steering box, too, btw.) and it seems to be running a bit rougher than usual. For you fellas that know more than I do, what all should I do? Adjust the...

    Bumper Fabrication

    Yes, that would not be good. haha

    Bumper Fabrication

    That is another idea I had. The way the bumper is mounted on my truck, I could weld some "straps". I will still get some pictures to give a clearer image. I'm a visual guy haha.

    Bumper Fabrication

    Yep. A picture will help the image be more clear. The Ramsey has a lot more space for a winch, but only has about a 3.5 inch "plate" currently, and it has 4 holes that the tow hooks mount in, that I would remove and put 4 bolts through it and lap it on the underside of the plate. It was designed...
