Don't know how it is in our world of the S/T series trucks but, the heep world reports many of the MOOG parts not being like they were in times gone by. No personal knowledge, just passing it along.

Speaking of the temps, are you ever going to help him get that 13 year old fuel filter off?

F9K9

Short of pulling it and taking it with you to the parts store, I wouldn't know how to find out, Eric. Gawd, I almost forgot about the rear drums on my '97. I had to plan on stopping a 1/4 mile from a stop light.

You're right. We both have/had the LS1s. Sorry if, muddied the waters.

F9K9

The link that I provided was for online ordering. Order it online and if, it is in stock, drive to your local store and it will be already pulled for you. Beats their employee discount. A fellow club member is a manager at one locally and I use the process almost exclusively. ..........................

Would the Ebay assembly have a warranty (even 30 days)? I think that I'd lean towards a new motor. Advance has them for $47 with limited lifetime warranty. ADVANCE AUTO PARTS have killer online deals and you could have that for maybe $30 delivered to your local store tomorrow morning.

I lived just south of Cleveland for several years as a youth. Give the Highway Patrol a large berth! They stopped me, at 57 mph in a 55 mph zone, while I was in a marked unit and asked me it, I was responding to a call. You are good for 6-9 over in KY

Congrats with the successful loss prevention program! Got the same "key" from HJ, myself. :thumb: I don't think mine is as likely to be stolen. Can't imagine a thief wanting to steal something that can go out on the law enforcement bandwidths as a BOLO for a yellow portable stadium lighting platform.

Your work is proceeding at a great rate then. 6 1/2 years later, you still amaze me! :thumb: For the newer members........

F9K9

Something just dawned on me with the rapid progress that you are making on the rig. The time of year and if, you are having another "seasonal lay off"?

F9K9

The ZR2 bed is doable. Club member chopped his and he spent a lot of large amount of time on it. When I saw it, I asked him why he didn't just find a crew cab bed. He looked dumbfounded. Don't you think his bears a slight resemblance? http://lh4.ggpht.com/_EdVPVeddEMU/Sz6FnSBgk5I/AAAAAAAAFsc/7eVGVfP...

F9K9

Still makes an extra set of wheels and tires look attractive.

F9K9

Search is your friend.

F9K9

No one has done a ZR2 flare conversion here. Finding them and their costs will make HJ's alternative look very attractive. The ZR2 fenders have a larger wheel well opening. Your best bet is to find any stock back spaced wheel set and some decent tires to throw on your rig for inspection purposes. Ju...

I've switched computers 2x since I created the word document, I can't open the complete document because it is looking for the Microsoft word 2002 disc to re register. It won't let me install the version on a different machine. I wish that I can help but, I can't.

.........The "C" clamp method is not a permanent fix if a caliper piston is sticking. I didn't mean to imply that it was a permanent fix. Just something to use to troubleshoot the situation. I didn't go into removing the brake cylinder reservoir cap and remove the excess brake fluid that will be di...

F9K9

Most likely. You might be able to free it by removing the wheel and using a c clamp.

F9K9

That is not a plug, it is actually a type of breather or vent. Relocate the vent under the rig elsewhere. Black is not bad for the fluid when compared to brown and foamy. Pay attention to what metal is there though.

F9K9

Good deal! I wonder why these guys keep posting these recommendations and others refuse to use the search function and still take their rigs to the stealerships.

A few weeks of snow and you'll be back on the retirement wagon again ;) Nest building and improvement is a worthwhile way to spend a long holiday weekend.

I am sure that Brule read the same ancient sci-fi book, in grade school, but, I just remember fogging the cylinders with something when the plugs are removed and then replacing them.

only reason why i said brakes is because my calipers were froze shut without me even realizing it. wore the pads all the way down and started to grind on the rotor. even when i wasnt braking.

That struck me as odd this morning, as well.

F9K9

I can't add to that answer HJ, I concur.

F9K9

I will if, we hear from again

F9K9

The noise is unrelated to braking, correct? Jack up each wheel, either both at once or individually. Grab the tire and try to move it. You should have no movement when holding it at 12 - 6 o'clock or the 9-3 positions.

I have the wireless Warn remote on my winch. The lag time is seriously dangerous. I know that you are discussing lights but, the winch wireless controller has some serious time delay issues while performing recoveries. By lag time, I am saying 2-3 seconds of it.
