That x-10 camera is basically what I will get when I get the camper. Oh BTW the front camera also has infrared night vison apx. 15 foot range. I have to upgrade the rear camera to match. Hey Reed ever read the Doc Savage book series? I like to think that's a good character to emulate. Sheer size wit...

The plan is the carputer in the console. I have a console from a 2001 with the cassette deck opening to swap in. then the computer ports will be accessed through that opening. Computer will have the gps software and antenna/pc card. I may also have the software to run the obdII diagnostic and modifi...

Well here is the final setup of the "backup" camera system. It now has a front camera, rear camera, 8" VGA LCD Touchscreen Monitor w/ remote. It can also have a third camera and a computer hookup. :D http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/4/web/2296000-2296999/2296465_37_full.jpg http://memimag...

maybe he hooks a chain on the 4-wheeler and pulls the trailer up the trailer before driving the wheeler on the back with the same set of loading ramps?

I guess I just never have needed to do this fix. I just have never turned off my climate control.

The big problem around here is that most of the scrap yards have closed due to a combination of govt. regs and the high price of scrap metal. The biggest yards just ship most stuff up to Canada as scrap metal saves them from having to deal with keeping runoff from the vehicles contained. If any one ...

Imho -that is one fugly truck. I am afraid I do not see the point in bagged and dropped trucks they are going in the wrong direction.

On the auto dim mirror topic, anyone got the harness for the mirror? I got a mirror from E-Bay for my last truck and did not get the wire harness with it.

04crewvt

Just a good mix of brute force and brains I guess. Besides the camera wasn't that hard to install. Just look at my stereo. http://www.s-10crewcab.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/10117/normal_stereo_001_%28Large%29.JPG http://www.s-10crewcab.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/10117/normal_stereo_003_%28La...

04crewvt

Never had any luck getting the mirror off the right way I just wrapped a hammer in a towel and slid it up the windshield and hit the bottom of the mirror mount. mirror pops right off.

04crewvt

I did break two studs when I put the spacers on but that was because I was using a 1/2 socket wrench instead of a torque wrench. Once they were replaced and torqued correctly(not by gorilla method) they have been fine.

04crewvt

Much Better.

04crewvt

I run a set of cheap secondary backup lights on my k1500, just tapped into the backup light circuit and a good ground. They work fine. It would probably be better to run them with a relay in line depending on how powerful they are I am just using the basic $12 napa auto utility lights (like for a tr...

Other thing to check this is the official way GM wants the brakes bleed. Hydraulic Brake System Bleeding 1. Place a clean shop cloth beneath the brake master cylinder to prevent brake fluid spills. 2. With the ignition OFF and the brakes cool, apply the brakes 3-5 times, or until the brake pedal bec...

04crewvt

At least it will be a good place to start.

04crewvt

Prepare yourself to meet a lot of great people and to find a wealth of information on the crews.

Oh and for a much lighter wallet.

I am also having them check the brakes they grab when wet and the pedal keeps sinking to the floor when I depress the pedal and hold it down. Here is the info as of today. Dealer is ordering me a new ,brake vacuum booster,They suspect a vaccuum leak in the booster is the brake problem They also fou...

That is an excellent choice. Multifunctionality.

Yup, those will do the trick. I am running their 1 inch hub centric in the front and their 2.5 inch in the rear and like them a lot.

04crewvt

Well it looks like that was it, have had two major rainstorms since putting in the sealer and no leak. Carpet has dried out with no problem.

Photo of difference between 1.5 and 2 DIN dash taken from s10 forum

04crewvt

2003 zr-5 is a double DIN opening 4 inches. Reeds 2002 could be either 1.5 or 2 the change occured mid-year if the dash opening is 4 inches it's double DIN if it's less than that it's the 1.5 Din. I beleive one way to tell is if you have the cd/cassette deck in the dash it is a 2 DIN if your cassett...

04crewvt

If I am correct on the model years, 1.5 din size radios from 2000-2002 in our trucks. 2 din for 2003-04, but know one seems to show an aftermarket double din to fit our trucks.

04crewvt

All the ricers love them.
Anybody with an 03-04 with the double din opening replaced there head unit with an aftermarket double din unit? Crutchfields isn't much help for my truck nothing is listed to fit.

I think I found it. I just filled with waterproof seam sealant and will let it dry before putting carpet back down. I will let you know if it is fixed when the carpet dries out. http://www.s-10crewcab.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/10117/normal_leak_003_%28Medium%29%7E0.JPG http://www.s-10crewcab.co...

04crewvt

only thing I have had done in the front was the replacement of the wiper encoder motor I wonder if they did not seal it correctly when they replaced it. I guess it will be hose time.

04crewvt

I just noticed that my carpet on the drivers side is soaking wet! I had to refasten my floor mat and found the whole carpet soggy. I have been using the a/c a lot this summer but am not sure if this is causing the problem. Any ideas befroe I just tear into it or am forced to take it to the dealer?

04crewvt

Ditto on the Rancho RSX shocks. I've had them on for a year and love them.

04crewvt

Sort of like filling a sheet of sandpaper up with material and getting an area that has a shiny spot on it. Glazing can occur on belts causing squealing as well.

04crewvt

My RAP went out, it was traced to a bad door lock switch in the drivers door.

Well I was low on gas and had just filled up when the code set and it was 2nd day of heavy rain. I guess I could have gotten some cr** from the bottom of the fuel pump/tank in the line or some water from the high relative humidity. I will see if it comes back and will pick up some MAF cleaner I have...

04crewvt

I just pulled code 172 and 175 on my truck both banks showing rich condition, any ideas on what may need to be checked?

04crewvt

Just remeber a heat advisory in Vermont is like a snow day in Arizona. Both are so infrequent that they wreak havoc because no one is prepared for them.

04crewvt

Actually hit 95 with 70 % humidity yesterday and 91 today. In the 12 years I have been here it has broken 100 less than a dozen times.

Time to fill the tank when it gets to 1/4 5 minutes, Time to walk to the nearest gas station 15-30 minutes, Avoiding the need to admit you ran out of gas PRICELESS.

Aw and here I have been waiting for the writeup on the new gas/wind CC hybrid. That is a mast isn't it?

04crewvt

Ya mine is set to auto update. I just had never looked into the food and drink category.

Yea but since it was split off as my topic I can take it anywhere right?

04crewvt

Ah with all the regulations and the way the cars are crippled, Nascar has become too much like 500 miles of tailgating. Now if they went back to putting STOCK CARS out there and seing what happens then I would be more interested.

I can't find a photo of the connector you need but if you just need to patch it until Monday, call and see if they have a tube of plumbers putty made to work wet or dry. it molds around the pipe and hardens to seal the leak. The nice thing about this putty is you do not have to have a perfectly dry ...
