How much of the body are you going to cover in the bedliner???? Good luck man! Post the pictures of the end product...
-
zonianbrat- I know what you are talking about... i see commercials on tv for that stuff all the time but i guess its bad advertising because i dont remember the name of it. I like the spray on bedliner look and was thinking about maybe doing something with it on my pahty...... Just a thought.... one time i saw a white F250 with a two tone paint but the second tone was just bedline that only covered the bottom third.... Its was so cool!!!!

As most may know my pathy is for sale, its a 88 SE V6 4X4( motor is siezed). My friend has just crunched his 92( i think, i know its early 90's) in the front and was thinking if he could buy mine and then swap his V6 and brand new trans into mine. Obvious problems: His is a VG30E and i had a VG30i- i know the ECU would have to swap anything else???? His is 2WD and mine is 4WD- He didnt want to use my trans b/c he just had a BRAND NEW! one put in his.... Would anyone here recomend this??? (I'm less than enthusiastic) One final thought..... if he put a 2wd trans in my truck then what about the 4wd drive shifter and normal shifter in the car??? Wouldnt there just be a hole ??? (If all of this is possible)
-
me too!!!!! Its a conspiracy!!!!
-
if you go to the home pages of magnaflow or flowmaster you can listen to the differnent mufflers they put out.......... its pretty cool.
-
I hate that gay little button! Mine broke and wouldnt stay off so it was always on "power mode" or whatever. I had to drive with my hand on the shifter holding the button in........... I just cut the wires to it in the end. It sounds like the button isnt even broken and your just hitting the gas hard enough to turn on "power mode"................

Yeah well i have a paintball gun!!! top that............. Tippmann 98 Custom with a 14" Dye Excel barrel, coiled remote, 4+1 harness, and a Jt Spectra mask with a reflective lens.

I paid $400 fo an entire exhast syestem from the headers back with flowmaster 5o series with 2 1/2 inch pipe dual exhast. Quality work to but the place is a local shop that mainly does hot rods and race cars here in az.

I'm subways bro and i work at autozone the durlast batteries are good but nothing on the optimas. We live in AZ the heat here causes most regular batteries to die in about 2 years if you are luck if you get 3 years. Optimas on the other hand tend to last about 5 to 6 years its pretty crazy. Autozone and cheacker will price match any company so just bring in the add or something and they will match the price that saves tons of money and time.
-
Optimas are 129 at autozone but napa was having a deal on red tops for 109 plus autozone and cheacker will price match so look around that is the best deal around convince.

subways bro, I replaced my brothers and it is a nightmare I mainly work on old muscle car like mine with no room due to headers but my brothers we had to move the tranny lines oil fliter. It wasn't that fun. an way I would go a head and replace oil pressure sending unit it. It's not an expensive thing and if it looks questionable its better to be safe then sorry when it comes to oil. That is how I wrecked my frist motor in my car oil pressure switch didn't work. I ended up throwing a rod at 85 mph of the freeway. The rod went all the way through the block. Replace it.
-
I read your story im subways bro I work at autozone. I have heard of that thing happenning only once before. We just went in and replaced it and it worked fine. If you don't live where it is too dust like AZ get a KN. If you do live where its real bad you will have to clean it all the time its a pain. Just replace it and cheack the vac lines you have some dirrectly behind the aircleaner assbembly. good luck man not a big problem.
-
If you live in Az like me then the Optima is worth it. Regular batteries tend to give up the ghost at about 2yrs old. Optima will go strong for a about 6 yrs. Its pretty crazy how good they are. Plus they dont leak or break. AWESOME!!
-
You never know about that new stuff. One time my pathy died on the free way bc of a bad alternator and a drained battery. Charged the battery and bought a new alternator from Checker.Then it died again on the free way, this time the battery was dead.Replaced the battery and then it died in the middle of an intersection. Turns out the "new" alternator had ZERO output. Wasnt too happy about that. (Checker replaced it for free fortunately, but they didnt pay for the $90 battery i got) Good times

i dont know much but im pretty sure that a rusted frame is bad and i wonder what else broke with the sway bar??????? hmmmmmm........
-
Alright thanks you guys for all the help. I dont think i could ever figure this out by myself.
-
As for the timing belt i have had the truck for about 6 months and i never changed it. I doubt the last guy did either. As for the dying circumstances it was death by driving. My brother was driving it on the freeway and it lsot power and made wierd metal on metal noises. He pulled over and it was towed home. He said it had started to pool oil under it. Once home we drained the little oil to find oil everywhere around the starter(this could have been from a previous oil leak that ive had) we removed the starter and found out it was fine. I then tried to turn the motor manually with a breaker bar and it moved a little then wouldnt move anymore. And thats all
