I ran this chuck for a while.

I just got rid of the seal. Doesn't bug me.

Well Steve is the man. I was originally all gunned up for his Dakota IFS, but then found out it was not available, and so I went with the Jag IFS per his suggestion.

I think last time I checked mine were at 32psi.

I get the same.

I think I mentioned in the write up that the Jag I pulled mine out of was crushed under another car too. Granted, thats not 3 or 4 cars, but it was still enough weight to break the original coil springs. I put a pic in there somewhere. The good news was it didn't bend any irreplaceable parts. I'm te...

Yea that's a solid truck.

Thats what I did. Its a near bolt in. You need to drill out one of the top holes (was not completely drilled through the flange from the factory for some reason...) and cut a shifter hole in your floor, and a driveshaft change maybe. Then you're good to go.

Yea you're lucky dude! My dad has virtually no interest in cars, and I only wish he and I could sometimes just work on the truck together...

As long as you don't have to reach into the 4 barrels to pull you up a hill...

I love me a meaty rear end!

Do not buy LMC rubber.

3.89 and your done. With the T5 ratios, you'll have a stump pulling 1st gear and a sweet cruising overdrive.

I'm a member over there as well. It is one of my favorite boards. Unlike some, I love that everything is posted in one forum. Kind of makes it a living, breathing stream-of-conscience thing. I don't try to read every thread, but every time I refresh there is something new to check out.

Looks good man. My tired old 292 still surprises me.

Hahaha yes its got mufflers. Its not so much the exhaust note as it is this massive whirring effect coming from under the hood, coupled with the wind noise wrapping the cab. But really, it doesn't bother me enough to stop me from driving the truck all day everywhere! I guess that's the bottom line. ...

Oh I laid down tons of sound deadener, as well as insulation under the hood and roof. But it's still just too loud at real highway speeds...

RockAuto is the cheapest I've found for ACC carpets. They rock! I literally paid less than half of what ACC wanted for the same carpet from RockAuto. Check em out.

I bought and installed a Kenwood kit that included a head and two speakers which I mounted in the doors. It sounds good enough for me! Except once I get up to 65mph and above the wind & road noise really begin to compete with the sound system, and I have to turn it up to the point where its almo...
