Then I'll order the timbrens, they must glue the figure 8 things on cause there are 0 holes on the metal. wierd not one of my 3 95's had them, not even 1. No wonder I can superflex the rear to touch the body then... Or I'll edit the inside wheel well to allow the flex;-)

You looking at the rear? Fronts have rubber and the front is minimal flex; rear is where I have impact/tire rub on inside body wheel well enough that it is shiny. OOH like havin chrome almost! Those pics make me laugh still; damn bumper and hitch were held on by a bungee cord after "some issues" pulling a Rubicon out

Watch Precise1's thread on Thorleys, I would recommend getting the Thorleys thru Steeevo as Precise1 did also as it is a excellent price & he is a trustworthy vendor. Truck will sound NICE!

I have the Calmini 3" lift and AC 3" Body with rear sway removed, I removed the front but it really didn't do much except make it a crazy drive on the interstate. We need to hook up this spring and do some wheeling!-)

Really? Seems like I do almost every time I go... I must do it wrong with 31's on stock rims & with my soft 8's and 33's on, it binds up on the inner fenderwell of the body before the frame

I believe ECU is the same, issue being auto ecu can be used in both but manual ecu doesn't work on the auto. 92-95 parts are all interchangeable What parts are you looking for? post it in parts wanted as some of us have parts trucks available.

Welcome to the Rust repair club Bill!-)

I think we have 55 gallon drums of fluid-fil at work, I r stupit! We use it to coat CNH tractors before shipping them overseas to protect them from salt, etc...

But once water gets in there the reflective qualities go to hell; at least my passenger side has since it had a lil' to much to drink one day.

If you remove the rear bumpstops the axle hits the frame or the wheel rubs the inner wheel well. our bumpstops are chunks of metal and these are semi hard rubber and are much longer but collapse. they remind me of Air ride in semi's, as they compress down to nothing so it stops hard bottoming out as it cushions the impact. looking for a link to a video this is an x but you get the idea (it compresses more than shown) I snapped my first 95's frame with a hard hit to the rear bumpstops and was wondering if anyone used them on a pathy since the x is leaf spring

Timbren I seen them on an X-terra (as it bounced around) very impressed, may drop the $ and pick some up once I get the engine done.

without the prep (cleaning debris, removing loose rust, etc...) POR-15 would be a waste of alot of money as it wouldn't work well. one of the other options (Dino or Fish based) I use POR-15 and love it! just not on the inside of the frame rails

I have had 3 95's and none have had pre-cats

P1401 EGR Temp Sensor I wouldn't trust the Haynes manual for the issue. Best to replace the temp sensor and reset your codes. If that doesn't work jump back into this thread

full tank, and I use a weld blanket, I also dropped my tank the first time; after that I just throw a blanket over it, I plasma cut, weld, grind without issue. Always have an extinguisher ready and pay attention to the gas lines on the passenger rail. (Por 15 makes 2 products called Marine Clean (degreaser/cleaner) and Metal Ready (paint/weld prep)) yeah I like POR-15... Don't worry about the inside as once you weld it any paint etc... is vaporized and the rest of the frame isn't treated on the inside. 2 bad there is no bridge over Lake Michigan; would have you bring it over Addicted to Welding............. Beats the hell out of my daytime IT job...

Didn't have any issues with my Calmini swap but I use MAPP with my PB Blaster after a heat-spray-heat (and I had the right size ratchet)HUGE since airtools didn't work well

I'll be picking one up also; as it is time to pull the headers out of the garage attic while I am wrenching.

Wow nice project! Did you make your table also? I like the setup!

isn't it a 16 gallon tank? that would throw the math off but still is bad on gas...

I am pulling my engine to replace the main seal. While it is out I am going to: 1. timing belt, water pump 2. rings, will check bearings also (honing, etc) after 225K I am guessing the cams are worn so I am wondering if anyone has used anything other than stock? (I tow and wheel with my pathy) Just wondering who has used what options, I searched but didn't find any usable info.

Congrats on your first timing belt change! I'm doing mine soon...

I'll watch again when I get home and have a few beers; memorize that and blow some minds... or get put away in the nuthouse for tryin'

No flux capacitors? reminded me of a 70's Popular Mechanics Flying Car ad; we should have had them by the 90's! WTF?

Drop buy and I'll oilpan to one piece Nice truck! but you didn't like the x?-0

Rancho 9000's here also & love them (In cab adjuster is available)
