BB - I'm with you on that idea. Since it's torn apart already, I would have liked to have put in new bearings but I only had help through this morning AND the parts store was closed.... so I put that one back in.
I hope (knock on wood) it'll be fine for another 100k :) We made sure to put a...
I would go that route, but I've only got my buddy here to help through the morning and the parts store is already closed for the night. Plus I don't think I can change the whole bearing without pulling out the crankshaft... which is a little bit more than I was hoping to do.
So... I'm more...
So I've got a buddy over helping me replace a rear main seal. We noticed this bearing has a bit of a discoloration on it - what do you think? OK to use?
Yes, there are bracket adapters. If you order your speakers from crutchfield.com and enter in your vehicle information then they include the brackets for free.
I ordered some sound ordnance p 35 speakers from them and the brackets came with. I'm not sure I'd recommend those speakers, though...
I was working on something similar when I was installing my stereo. I thought I had found a always-hot +12V spot on the fuse block but by the time I got around to actually connecting my spade connector there was no voltage there. I thought I had gone crazy or something, and eventually ended up...

I ran that to the stereo as the always hot line.
Then I branched off of that to a toggle switch I mounted on the dash. This toggles positive to the +12V ignition connection on...
If my memory serves me correctly, the GEN2 bulb and GEN1 bulb are different. I think GEN1 is a 168 and GEN2 is a 194. Even if you put the wrong bulbs in, I don't think it would cause you this problem.
I would pull the alternator and have it tested at your auto parts store to rule that...
Next steps are to install this antenna: Universal Window-mount Antenna AM/FM replacement antenna at Crutchfield.com
Also I think I'm going to put in a toggle switch to toggle a +12V line to the head unit's "ignition on" wire. That way I can turn on the radio while the truck is off, since my...
