To me it sounds like you need a good front end alignment. Not aligned with a tape measure or a hack yard trick. A good alignment and having the entire steering linkage and steering box checked out by a skilled competent technician. They are hard to find these days. Good Luck. I have driven...

I adjusted them where they were perfect and drilled an 1/8" hole thru the bracket and mirror shaft. An 1/8" aluminum pop rivet works great and will shear if struck. Always worked and I only ever sheared 1.

I can relate to this image.

I was out splitting some wood as therapy and a good cardio workout. It began to rain. I don’t need wet therapy so I decided to pull the drain plug out and get that looked at. Nice little pile I split everything that was cut to length. I reached up onto the rusty hole of the block and clamp d...

Yea I don’t know what was added and what taken away. They traded the big rims and tires for a stock set but now they want the lift off. I just need to figure out what that entails. I will continue to do my research. I still don t have to like it. But I will get by with a little help from my...

I have a 2013 Ram 2500HD crew cab diesel 6 speed manual truck that was sent to me to have the lift kit removed from it. I don't even know where to start. My Son was supposed to do the work. I look at it and wonder if anyone on this sight has a similar truck that they could exchange pictures with...

When I have the engine out I will install a block heater and replace all the freeze pugs with brass plugs. Any feedback on that plan? I could BrassO them. Ha ha.

I was thinking. I need to punch out a freeze plug on the other side also. I can do that.

I wanted to do something to move in the right direction so after work I went in the barn grabbed my long punch and punched out a freeze plug in the block. Nice shower of crusty coolant. So I am not even feeling bad about pulling the engine. It will be the opportunity to detail everything under...

I always place a flat washer on the water pump stud, so the flange nut gets an even surface to tighten on. Otherwise, you tighten the outer nut against the bracket, and it wears into the hex of the water pump stud and makes a gouge in the slide area and makes adjustment harder. I hope I relayed...

GM’s New Tactical Truck Is What Happens When A Silverado ZR2 Goes Full Stealth-Mode

Yes. They are fastened to the lower torque converter cover. There are clips on the oil pan bolts to hold the lines in place also.

What rusted on the fiberglass top?
