    Since I moved from Texas, I have been working for the most part. I enjoy hunting, fishing, camping, offroading, and enjoying the mountains. I am currently looking for a group to do a little offroading in the state and national parks here in Oregon. Going by onesself is a little risky. I have met up with a few people at Tillamook State Forest. A good bunch of people up here.

  1. Carroll Shelby got paid a lot for endorses it, so it's gotta be good!! I have never tried it. Seems like a snake oil to me. I have used Royal Purple in several vehicles through the years. I have yet to have issues with it. RP does most of what it states. I'd just go with a reputable lubricant or do a little more research. Look for the good and the bad and believe 10% of what you read online.
  2. I never think about putting anything in mine. I keep my change in the little cubby on the far left of my dash. The rest of my stuff is im my glovebox or center console. Maybe I should start smoking...
  3. take both shocks loose, disconnect the diff vent tube, and lift waaay up. You may still need to use a spring compressor to get it out, but you don't need to compress it very much to clear.
  4. Yeah, no codes at all. I think I might just buy the thing and do a little work to it. If I can't get it fixed, I'll re sell it or part it out. Thanks for the help. It does just as the TSB states. Sounds like a cheap fix. Thanks a bunch everyone. Best of all, I get to keep my Pathy. Time to celebrate with beer and some BACON!
  5. 1000 bux. The truck as a whole is in real good shape. Engine is strong, 4wd works, a few scratches, but the interior is cherry, the carpet could use a shampoo in the cargo area.
  6. I was wondering if they have a spped sensor. I know on some electronic trannies, the circuts were all tied in together through the cruise control via a speed sensor. Just though I'd throw that in there. The 4L80E is a virtually bulletproof tranny. And to have 2 with the same issue...very unlikely. If it's a speed sensor, that's a 30dollar part... May be worth a shot. Hell I can always part the truck out and make a profit.
  7. I am considering getting a 1993 3/4 ton Suburban w 454. It has an issue with shifting. I don't think it's the tranny though. The PO said it drove fine for 30 mins or longer before it acted like it went to neutral. He would pull over and turn the rig off, turn it back on and it shifted fine. He bought another tranny and installed it to find that it did the same thing. Sounds electronic and on the truck, not the tranny. Cruise control maybe? The tranny is a 4L80E so its not the POS 4L60E. I can get it cheap and the rest of the rig is in top shape. Thought I'd ask. Maybe someone here knows someone that knows someone that knows something. Thanks ahead of time. Best of all, I get to keep my Pathy!!!!!
  8. Sounds like you need an alignment. Mine did the same thing when I got cut off and hit a curb on the road. It's best to just get it realigned. If you go to Firestone Complete auto Care, the offer a lifetime alignment. Worth the money when you wheel.
  9. Good Luck!! Don't forget the bacon!
  10. Nice ride. Welcome to the BACON, I mean, NPORA!
  11. Baco...... I keep my owners manual, Insurance, Registration, and Zip ties. I made my wife take her tampons out of there when a buddy had a smart a$$ remark about it when he got a zip tie. She has a purse to keep those in anyway. No gloves, those are in my tool bag.
  12. Classical, Metal, Country, Punk, Classic Rock. Over all, I lean toward Metal. R&B, hiphop, Rap, and that crap in between that sounds like the singer is crying, just pisses me off. The worst part of radio is commercials. I just burn CD's and mix genres I like. I never get burned out that way. The wife cannot understand why I mix it. Going from Pantera to Garth Brooks to Steve Miller Band.....Maybe I'm just weird.
  13. What kind of bridge? I'm a collector.... As far as machining them, you can do it on a Bridgeport mill. Just use an indicator to find the center, make sure it's clamped down tight, and take light cuts with a boring head. I did some work on some old mags for my Chevelle. Worked like a charm.
  14. We got a Boxer a couple of weeks ago. He will ride with me pretty much everywhere. The only time I won't take him is when I plan on doing a little rough wheeling. Wouldn't want him bouncing off of the roof, floor, roof, floor, seats, windows.... On canoe and camping trips, he's there though.
  15. http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/351/...1696.htm#335988 Here is the answer I was looking for. Read the responses to the original review. There are ppl that work for the company that chimed in. Just as I suspected, they are a scam. New name, same company that ripped ppl off. The new company already has over 700 complaints with the BBB.
