Fwiw. I lost oil pressure in a Landry d90 yesterday and it took all of 3 minutes to have a lifter ticking like mad. As of now the entire oil system is in pieces in my garage. Don’t need this on another truck. This is my sons truck, and he is 16. We will do a double sensor that can be undone and...

Hello all. I am in the process of working out how to install an aftermarket oil pressure gauge on our 97. I have done some searching and so far I have come to the conclusion that an aftermarket gauge will fix my concerns about oil pressure. My plan was to omit the stock unit with a manual but...

Thanks Gummycarbs

This weekend I ordered a new security system, found out my windshield wiper bracket was broken, and noticed I am getting some noise out of the pulleys of my front end. The kid drove it into a lake and got it stuck so new discoveries daily.
