The first couple "free shipping" sales they left oversized items like the windshield glass at the regular price. That first christmas I bought 3 of them for $105 shipped. Then I think they realized they were losing a lot of money because of that, and they started bumping up the price on some...

So the main issue with their website is they don't distinguish between parts on hand, and parts that are on hand but reserved for a government order. They will hold that part in inventory until the gov contract is filled, then resume shipping to civilian customers.

I'm in.

good price, but labeled as made in China.

Hopefully someone learned their lesson, and the stencil is meant to be in good humor. We had a fax machine on the 2nd floor of our battalion building. Posted on the wall above the fax was instructions on how to operate the fax machine. It wasn't actually a fax machine though. It was the...

have you crawled under it yet to make sure that all of the half shafts and drive shafts are still connected? It's unlikely you had 2 half shafts fail or 2 drive shafts didconnected or some combination of the two (which would have to happen if it won't move in either HL or L), but not...

aren't the shocks also there to limit suspension travel? If so removing them then going off roading would probably be a bad idea

Saw a medium tow bar used to pull a dead semi with two flatbed trailers behind it by another semi. Just ask Hammer about that (he has since acquired the heavy towbar) medium towbar is more than strong enough for anything you could throw at it with a HMMWV

very cheap part, you can probably find one at your local auto parts store, or maybe if you take it in to have the refrigerant "properly recovered" they might even have them on hand if you don't want to order one and wait. apparently uses some type of 8 point socket. I can't recall but I...

on my red dot unit, the high side port was a standard thread in GM high side port. Just threads onto that brass fitting. just make sure you lubricate the O-ring with the SP-15 so you don't damage it during install. 99% sure it's the one below, as I only remember ordering one and this is in my...

So you learn something new every day. According to Royal Purple, GM 88861800 can be replaced with either their HPS or XPR 5W-30 OR their Max Gear 75W-90. Reading up somewhere else, the "gear oil" weights are actually basically the same as motor oil weights, but they use a different...

I thought that the 88861800 was supposedly repackaged DEX III fluid. Looking at the label, it even says it contains automatic transmission fluid (along with other oils) Then here is what I found on another site. Originally Posted by GM #04-07-30-037D MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS / TRANSFER CASES...

you are better off having a shop do the recovery. A lot less chance of getting any air into the system for starter. When I did my system, the listing on ebay for the receiver dryer showed a red dot number as well as another part number for a different brand. As for the fill level, Retired...

DEX 3 is what GM recommends for non-automatic transmission applications. They have a manual gearbox fluid that is basically just DEX 3, but not sure what their part number for it is.

if your batteries are deeply discharged, your jump packs might not be enough juice to start the truck. Larger batteries will try soaking up a lot of current, so you might either have to let them sit on there for a few minutes (this is assuming something like the 6T series batteries. group 24...

so update. Drove the truck about 30 miles with no signs of the wobble. I'm guessing my playing at the beach just finished off that tie rod end that was already starting to fail.

if the parts are cheap crap from China, then they were installed by the rebuilders when it went through reset in 2010, except maybe the idler arm as that was one I bought off ebay but appeared legit. Doesn't mean it was, and failing after a few thousand miles is not giving me a good feeling...
