Re: Source for 1st Gen cabin air filter

I think I have one in the garage. You're welcome to it. My truck never came with one for some reason.

I was going to say, the driver definitely had more hair than you did last time I saw you.

Re: Piano string twang

Sounds like a strut bearing. My VW does the same thing.

Re: What did you do to your rig today?

In the interest of not leaving everything to the last second, the truck is in the shop right now receiving some attention. Timing belt, water pump, thermostat, cam seal, crank seal and tomorrow a new steering box. By the way, we are coming, although I haven't signed up yet (I'll do that now). We've ...

Re: Radio

Mine has done that a couple times. Start the truck, no radio, just dead. Turn the truck off, and then start it again, and the radio works just fine.....??? I've decided it's likely gremlins, and that I'm just going to keep using this method of repair until it stops working. At which point I'll switc...

Re: What did you do to your rig today?

I'd like to get some extra grunt in the low end so that I can pull a trailer down the 400 series highways without any tires. VK56 Swap! I don't think mine did anything. I would consider an Airaid intake though, really impressed with mine. If I had the skillz to pull off a VK56 swap, or the money, o...

Re: What did you do to your rig today?

Question: has anyone ever added a throttle body spacer on their 3.3L? Wondering if they actually provide any actual gains in torque or if it's just a waste of $100. example: https://www.airaid.com/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=520-505 I'd like to get some extra grunt in the low end so that I can pull...

Re: What did you do to your rig today?

Avacado Garage... :teeth: :teeth: It's custom made by Ted himself I believe. True. I helped a little bit by drawing the parts in CAD, getting a couple of the plates made via a friend and weld supervising (aka drinking beer :lol: ). That was a fun project, wish we could do another. Yup, about 4 year...

Re: What did you do to your rig today?

Yeah, I bought it direct. Likely could have found a distributor nearby if I looked around more, but this was another case of: "I've put this off forever and now AW is 2 weeks away." We've got a puppy now so we're hoping that she'll be comfortable in there, sleeping in her crate. The qualit...

Re: What did you do to your rig today?

Installed a roof cage, relocated CB antenna. The last of my original ball joints is gone, as well as the lower control arm; so those are both new as well, along with bushings, etc. replaced a flex line, alignment.

Re: What did you do to your rig today?

Picked up a New Cobra 29 LX. Got sick of the blue glow of my 76XT, not to mention, it never worked anywhere near as well as a full size radio.

Re: What did you do to your rig today?

Rolled in a Duplicolor Bed Armor bedliner in the Frontier last weekend. Seems to have worked out pretty well. Also, replaced a lower ball joint recently; now all greaseable.
