    Well I read an article on those crank sensors and now fully understand how important they are. Basically tells engine when to fire. I had so much trouble with the starter abd moving it up and down and round I could've messed up or unplugged it

    04 Z71 silly trans swap, no start

    Also, forgot to add that I tried swapping out different relays in place of the fuel pump relay. What's the most effective way to check for spark, and if no spark where to check next? I'm not familiar with the new stuff. So nothing we did in the trans swap could've causedthis? 02 Sensors...

    searching through old threads I came across this one and thought I would add a little bit. do not double up on those coolant passages cleaner products. And only run them for the time it says to. They will eat up your aluminum radiator if you are running one. Ask me how I know. Also, you can...

    Peal & Seal

    It'll smell, especially in Houston. I had the floor of my low4x4 coated and it stank ever since. I regretted it but it would've been next to impossible to remove it all.

    RETRO-Mod: Jeep intermediate steering shaft

    so is this still an effective and safe modification for these trucks? I saw something about tack welding, and inserting bolts into the smaller and bigger shaft. I don't want to do something that will be half ass and could possibly fail

    at my wits end on power steering pump

    I called the maker of the pump and they suggested flushing out the steering box. Since I already removed the pump all I could do was Jack the truck up and tour the wheel to and fro letting the fluid pump out of the box. Ordered a pump, and pressure line...bought new return line, and a new...
