    Ok guys, shock time

    Eh. I've got experience with bilsteins, but I can't justify the price. Shocks are already done, I know it's a pretty straight forward job, but let's face it; There are people out there who don't even know how to open the hood of a vehicle, let alone change shocks... but are willing to...

    2006 & 2007 SD whistling drivers door??

    I used Latex Tubing. Vinyl has a tendency to get hard and brittle when it gets cold.

    Wrong? No. But let's look at it this way. Most of today's youth grew up and is growing up with Windows boxes. Old school admins that were kids in the 70's, grew up mostly with MS-DOS, PC-DOS, DR-DOS, etc. Then, windows came along and changed everything. I firmly believe the reason...

    What is the deal

    No I didn't copy it from anywhere. Its just terminology anyone who tows anything should know. I don't have a semi, but I know on an 80K over the road truck, the weight should be split 12K on the steers, 34K over the drivers, and 34 over the trailer axles. And no book to copy that from...

    What is the deal

    OK, let's break this down since no one has for the first few posters who seem confused about weight and the like. 1. Curb Weight - This is how much the truck weighs, empty. No payload no passengers, full tank of fuel. - or was it 1/2 a tank.. I can't remember now. 2. CVWR = Gross Vehicle...

    Spare Tire Lowering Contraption

    Never be able to match it? I think that a bunch of crud. Do you realize how many individual shapes FORD would have to have made? One per truck serial number. Yeah.. no.

    New computer..

    Huh? Explain this to me. what's the difference between windows TCP/IP stack and a mac TCP/IP stack? Transferring files over a network between two machines is done over a network protocol. What's so different about the two? Aside from the fact that the Mac TCP stack is better? Sorry. It just...

    New computer..

    I'm confused by what you're trying to say. I can vpn into my home network from anywhere in the world. It took me less than 5 minutes to set it up, and most of that time was getting my damned router to accept my mac address as a trusted address. And that software would be... what...

    Widgets? There are thousands of them. and if you can't find an apple widget you absolutely, must have, try yahoo widgets (the original widgets), and see if its there. I'm waiting till they start shipping MacBook pros with the 4 core processors.

    New computer..

    Apple says "spring of 07" Frankly, I don't really care if they release it in summer of 07. The only two cool things I see and like in Leopard are the "time Machine" app (whopteedoo, I have my machine back up my documents folder nightly to my desktop) and my entire boot drive once a week. The...

    New computer..

    Vista will be a good OS... in about 5 years, once they have the bugs... err security features worked out. Microsoft released vista to RTS status way too soon. It's pretty, but that's about it. I'll stick with my OS X. jharvey, Leopard will have pretty much the same GUI, so it will look...

    Is this a good buy?

    Big Bubba's in Salt Lake City. I don't know if they have other locations though. Triple Axle, Brakes on each axle, nice toolbox upfront, brand new tires and wheels. Gooseneck is the ONLY way to travel, IMHO. I think bumper pulls are just downright dangerous.

    Trans Temp

    I'm seing anywhere from 110 to 140 at 75mph. When it's sitting still on High Idle, rarely does it go over 100F

    Silly Question

    Ok, Rears are done. 20 minutes with a 3 minute "Respiratory Treatment" break. Only thing that looks weird, is the original shocks are a bit different than the new ones. The originals, the tube end was bolted to the axle. The new ones specify the tube to be bolted on the top, and the piston...

    Silly Question

    Thanks for the replies. It looks like I'm putting this job off for another day... Maybe the day when oh, I don't know.... THE RIGHT SHOCKS ARRIVE!?!?!?! The (supposedly) Trained customer service monkey at Summit sent me FOUR rear Shocks. Four of them. The eff am I going to do with 2 extra...

    Silly Question

    I know that after replacing most suspension components, such as bushings for example, you need a fresh alignment. What I can't remember is if an alignment is necessary after replacing only the shocks. Common sense tells me "No, an alignment is not necessary, stupid!", but it's been wrong a...

    Ford SD in a Tundra video

    Oh wow. Makes me want to go out there and ditch my F250 for a new 'yota. I mean, all the see saw roads I drive on nowadays! ugh.

    Missing 2 cylinders BEFORE it starts

    Stuff breaks, guy. Just because a glow plug worked last year, it can just as easily break this year. Same goes for just about anything man make. Eventually, it breaks.
