Behr paint looks amazing. Just repaint all in Behr, so it matches. I know too many painters and mechanics with lung disease and cancer. I just want all our members to be safe. Painting outdoors just exposes lots more people to the CARC. That’s why in many locations it is illegal.

I never said anything about firearms, so stop trying to skew my statements. Firearms are a right. I never said anything about banning the paint. So again you’re skewing my statements. Cancer causing agents requiring special respiratory equipement are another story, and using them when not...

Yeah. My best friend talked that way. He had an auto interior and auto shoppe and talked that same way about paint. Now he has a radical prostatectomy and is on estrogen. Did you ever hear the expression “wrong and strong”. Paint and interior section has a whole thing about Behr paint. Behr...

Isn’t there a trailer section guys???? hint hint

My truck is at my buddy’s place in Cali. My plan is to fix it, and leave it there for monthly 4WD adventures. He is always out and about in Death Valley and such. Then he sends all of us images of where he has been. I got smart and decided that life is short and I should start living it up...

I’m sorry but in my experience that is not true. Both are balanced together, as a unit. I just want him to have a reliable truck. He should remove the cartridge and bring it to a turbo shop for balancing. He can mail it out to a shop too. That unit needs balancing. Even when you rebuild a...

So you now have an unbalanced turbo charger. These things turn over 100,000 RPM and slight imbalance will make the bearings wear extremely quickly. You should never replace a turbo wheel without rebalancing. Instead you can buy a balanced turbo cartridge pretty cheaply. I think you are destined...

10K shafts are fully backwards compatible.

BUILD YOUR OWN BOX! CAMO makes a solid product BUT it ain't hard to build. I also sell them, but why not save the $ and DIY? The design was created with CAMO's help all that time ago. Look for posts # 1 and #51 for schematics with parts list and instructions...

PVC is tire specific. Rubber is easier to mix and match with multiple tires as it is more flexible.

Welcome. Post pics of your rig! I would keep the runflats. I would also install blue hummers to keep the spindles from falling off.

If you are going to spray the starter, you must disconnect the batteries first unless you want that cleaner to become accelerant and provide third-degree burns. I agree with Mogman. Check your battery fluid first before doing anything else. Then check the voltage. The fact that you blew off one...

Ultimately, is it worth the advertised $7k?

Hard to say for sure. Look at the starter underneath. Pull and clean and inspect all the wires. Wear electrical gloves. Look for burn marks and frayed wires and damaged insulation. Make sure the batteries and wires didn’t break free and didn’t shift to contact the body. Are you sure the pop...

If your starter isn’t grounded properly, you will burn up that wire like it’s a firecracker. Do what you feel is right.

When you ground a starter, it should be 0 gauge. Personally, I would not ground the starter. I would however pass a 0-gauge from the engine block to the frame and body if you are worried about the starter ground not being robust. Then ground the frame and body to the batteries with another 0-gauge.

They make an engine oil cleaner. I forget the name. ATF and Marvel Mystery Oil are all things people use also. This engine oil cleaner has helped me unstick valves before. I just forget the name.

My buddy on a gasoline engine in his 1999 Durango developed a bad tap. He was going to get a new engine. I changed his oil with engine cleaner and ran it for 5 minutes. I then replaced with cheap oil and ran for 10 minutes. I then replaced with good quality oil. Tap was gone. Engine lasted...

Please refer to my edit above regarding aftermarket keyed ignition switches.

I would say the following: The first thing is takeoff all the battery leads and check them for resistance. Then clean them and re-attach them. EDIT - If you have an aftermarket keyed ignition, it is possible it failed. They are a known weak point in the system. They burn up and burn out and...
