    4R100 TC Lockup Mod Opinions?

    4R100 TC Lockup Mod Opinions?

    Yep. Third gear but below a speed that the computer will allow for lock up. It is very nice, but I really don't use it often. I'm glad that I did the mod though.

    door lights

    My '07 F350 at work has an under hood light. The city mechanics always remove the bulb, that is the only reason I remember.

    4R100 TC Lockup Mod Opinions?

    I've the manual switch and an indicator lamp for TC lock up. I mostly use the switch when towing the TT in city areas. Works great. You'll know quickly if you forget to unlock when coming to a stop.:D

    Dodge 5.9 vs ford 6.0 in MPG

    Your friend needs to step away from the crack pipe. I'm calling BS on it. Tell him to show you some supportingl documentation for these claims. My best ever is 22.5 MPG and that was babying it driving slow and stead on a trip.

    Which is the horn wire?

    I splice in a on/on toggle (cant remember the techincal name) switch to select between air horn and regular. I had originall tapped in to the wire and it would sound both or just the stock. Sounded stupid to me. Sounds good now.

    hhey Bama...looky here

    I believe those are made by Grover for International. I came across a few sets in my searches. The bells should be chrome plated brass and the diaphram housings are some sort of "pot metal". The chrome is likely unsalvagable, so light sanding and painting may be your best bet. Below are some...

    Help, Need Holster Options For Sig P229R W/TLR-1

    It will probably be difficult to find a CCW type holster for most handguns with a rail mounted light. It is harder to conceal and not that popular from what I have seen. I've seen duty type holsters designed for rail mounted options, but not any true concealed type. Are you looking for a IWB or...

    Don't mess with Texas Drivers

    Not exactly correct. Banks are not statutorily off limits and the wording to prohibit weapons is specifically spelled out in TPC 30.06. There are just a few prohibited places in the Penal Code and most are a Class A misdemeanor though a few are Third degree Felonies. See Texas Penal Code 46.035...
