  1. Has anyone wired their foglights so you can run them with the parking lights and headlights? If anybody has, is it a PITA and please let me know how. Thanks
  2. Thanks for the info. Now I have to price tires when they wear out.
  3. I have a 95 xe that I have cranked the t-bars and spacers in the rear coils. I found a set of Armanda 17 wheels and tires for 250. The tires are 285/70/17. They convert to 32.7 inches so I'm wondering if would fit and what mileage and highway rpms might be. It has the stock 15 wheels and tires on it. Tired of turning 3k at 65 on the hwy. I don't do any extreme 4 wheeling with it. Mostly field running and commuting. Any info I can use? Thanks
  4. Hey everyone, I was trying to fix my keyless entry today. Only my panic button on the remote was working. The lock/unlock button didnt do anything. As I was going to the steps of reprogramming the remote again, I bumped the panic button on accident. Now my panic button locks and unlocks the truck. Dont know if the big button is bad or not but aleast my keyless entry works again. If your remote is worn out, try that to buy you some time.
  5. Thanks for the help. I looked around the shop today and found some afco racing strut rods I used on a later model dirt car. Just have to make a mount for the heim joints. Thanks again.
  6. Thanks, but i would rather put new ones on that deal with the same problems again. It seems that these are well known for breaking are troublesome.
  7. I was finding my exhaust leak this morning when I found that the driver's side strut rod is broke were the bushings go. The end is broke when the large nut and bushings go through the bracket on the frame. Is there any aftermarket companies that carry these or are they dealership only. No telling how long it has been broke. I HATE rust.
  8. Has anyone used this newer type of fluid? I have a gallon left over from my GMC and was thinking of using this in the power steering and transfer case. Trying anything for better gas mileage. BTW it is going in a 95 xe v6 5 speed
  9. Just received a TPS that was on rockauto for 11 bucks. It is a beck/arnley unit that matches up with the original. It for manual trans only as Advance auto wants 110 for one. Site shows only 7 left. Thought I would give everyone a heads up.
  10. Hey everyone, I have a 95 xe v6 5-speed. Made a long trip this weekend and after about 100 miles of non-stop driving, the cel light will come on while coasting down a hill when in gear. The light will go out when accelerating up a hill on the highway. As long as you are pushing the pedal, the light stays off. The more you drive the worse it gets. When pushing the pedal to get the light back off the motor hesitates for a second than clears up. Also when idling if the light is on rpms are really eratic. Checked the codes and only 55 is coming back. I am thinking MAF or TPS. Any ideas?
