    Replaced cluster lights with LEDs

    I purchased my LEDs from superbrightleds.com. Cost right around $200 for the just the instrument cluster lights. I did do the turn signal lights as well and they are BRIGHT. These LEDS do dim a little. When I say a little I mean the difference is about the same if you were to stare directly into...

    Replaced cluster lights with LEDs

    I was tired of not being able to see squat when driving at night so I decided to pony up the cash for some LED bulbs in my instrument cluster. I am more than happy with the results. These lights are visible during the day! There was one spot where the LED bulb had trouble fitting. Also I had to...

    How does the coolant flow?

    Do you remember how warm too warm is? Was your temp gauge near or in the red?

    How does the coolant flow?

    Do you have a winter front? My 6.2 loves it during the winter. Warms up quicker and stays warm while driving. This is the one I have on my truck: http://www.jatonkam35s.com/cucvwinterfront.htm

    ETR clock is always on

    Another update. I found a suburban in a pull and pay that had an ETR radio at one point and it had seven terminals like my truck so that was not the issue. I replaced the steering column to fix another electrical problem and I cold finally drive places. Along with this issue I was having issues...

    Can't get to HL dimmer switch. Ideas?

    To drop the column down further you can loosen the two nuts in the engine bay right where the column comes through the firewall. That will aid in letting the column come down a bit more. They are the same size as the nuts that attach under the dash.

    ETR clock is always on

    So I have an update to this. Seeing as how I learned that the yellow and orange wires were most likely in the wrong place according to the radio wiring diagram I decided to pull out my dash harness instead of having to work upside down under a dash all day. While I was at it I also pulled out...

    You can use the 4X10 to 6X9 adapter to to put the wider 6X9s in the stock bracket without having to pull them out, measure, grind away, test fit, grind again, etc. I've never used them but it looks like they just screw in to the stock speaker bracket. Alot easier in my opinion. Then again I dont...

    TH400 stalls in any gear

    Ok, got the solution for this. I need a new column. I unhooked the transmission from the steering column at the advice of a neighbor and tried shifting again. Stalled immediately so the problem is in the column and not the tranny, thankfully. This will be a lot easier to fix.

    ETR clock is always on

    Nothing looks to be on. Except when I hit the brake pedal I can see one of the instrument lights turn on, the right turn signal light, and the light in the transfer case cover comes on. Dont know if that means anything.

    ETR clock is always on

    Ok, I'm starting to see what is wrong now. Orange wire from the fuse is supposed to be constantly hot, yellow wire is supposed to be switched hot but is getting constant power some how. Hmm. Could this be because of a bad steering column? Mine is on its last legs and the igntion doesnt always...

    ETR clock is always on

    I'll have to see if the previous owner of the wiring moved bits around. If not I have another interior harness I can swap in. Does it matter if I do not have that style of fuseblock? That looks to be 85 and up. Mine is 84

    ETR clock is always on

    After swapping the military harnesses out of my CUCV for civilian counterparts I found an ETR cassette radio that wound up in my dash. Its not the best working but it works. Out of curiousity I asked RetroC10Sport if my clock being on all the time was normal and it, in fact, is not. He directed...

    HRPC's trip to Pull A Part

    It really is a nice truck. I think it was someones hunting rig as there was still what appeared to be a gun rack in it. Now its in my garage :happy107: It didnt even have a smell. Might have had something to do with someone taking the front doors. Still, its a shame.
