    speedometer & odometer not working

    Wonder what caused the break? I'm at 220k now and it was original. Thank you for offering a spare, I just ended up ordering a new VSS.

    I am battling this now too. Wires look fine. What ground is this? Also, VSS appear normal?

    Rear coil spring question

    I am definitely not opposed to air bags. I run them on my F150. A trailer with a tongue weight of 400 pounds is a little more than I like to tow in the 80.

    Rear coil spring question

    As easy as it is to change the springs, why not just swap out to heavier springs when you tow?

    If I found the right one, looks like the FB seller paid about $5200 for it at auction + fees. Realizing he got burned, he's trying to unload it, seemingly thinking a 110,000 mile turd is worth $9450. Unfortunately, that truck is terminal. It is worth $2000 max for parts. To channel Tommy...

    The mileage tracks through its life. It went odometer exempt at about 97,000 so it doesn't report a mileage any longer where it's registered.

    Hell no, not for $4450, much less $9450. That's a $2450 truck, maybe. It looks like the doors he replaced are a different shade of blue from the rest of the truck. It also has a salvage title. 8 owners and has only had 10,000 miles put on it in 8 years, unless it has a faulty odometer. Most...
