Make sure the ground wire is going to a good ground. That will always wack out the rear lights. That was going to be my suggestion.. If the lights are 'normal' with the headlight swtiched off, the system is grounding back through the circuit.. when the lights are on the ground path is hot and the l...

Ok, has anyone seen any S10's with post mounted spotlight? Is there a good one that works without a large headache and looks good?
Something like these:

howdy yall, little help hear, again, is there any difference between a 01CC and a 04CC Sonoma and between a 01CC Sonoma and a 01CC S-10, that would affect the part number for a grille guard brush guard?

Yeah, I have a 3 cell Mag - It doesnt fit anywhere--I used to carry that in the pocket on the back of the drivers seat until I realized that it was stretching out the elastic.

The good side is that if anything goes wrong with Powerdyne you can still run your truck with out it without any major work...

I drive firetrucks for a living, and there's nothing like the sound of an air horn to get peoples attention! :o Does anyone have a discreetly mounted air horn? I'd love to put one under the hood or somewhere it cannot be seen. John. years ago (late 80's/early 90's) I had a black electric 'airless a...

I had about the same experience at the dealer. When I went to have it checked out, they told me that I would need an appointment, and that they could see me the next day. Well guess what, the next morning when I started my truck no air bag light, and when they checked it out they told me that there...

that blows..so you lose hp when the defroster is on.. I never knew that Some cars disable the AC if you mash the gas pedal to the floor. Don't know if ours does that. The only good thing about the AC pump being on year round is that it's not sitting all winter and could freeze up. con My '03 disabl...

Maybe I'm just lucky, but my '03 has only seen the dealership once.. that was for the airbag light, at 34k miles.. never been into ANY shop yet, except options (like Magnaflow muffler, etc)..

Summary: I too think that you will be OK. Actually I think that you were lucky that you were going fast enough that it did not engage, and that you did not hit reverse. The park position does operate much like neutral, other than the mechanical locking lever. Yep.. I'm nota trany expert (more of an...

I know 30's had been mentioned as fitting using the stock rims..

Ok.. did some research, including tiretrack.com (great site!).. have it narrowed down to two possible tires: 1)Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo 2)Firestone Destination M/T Anyone have any experience with these two?

30's will fit stock height. They look better with a bodylift though :-) Edit: 30's will fit stock height, on stock rims, and would be a good starting point. If you go to those aftermarket rims you mention, they will likely have a wider backspacing, and then you may run into some clearance issues. I...

I find that odd since the S-series has remained virtually unchanged since 84/85 when it was released, even with the 1st gen /2nd Gen changeover. Actually the 1st S10's were in '82... I had one..
