My battery was tired and not holding a charge so I picked up a new one and replaced it. The truck turns over strong, but will not start. No other changes than the battery. The truck ran fine before the swap.
I double checked the wires and everything is connected correctly; what am I missing?
Driving the truck home the other night and I notice the alternator light come on. I had a loose connector once before that did the same thing so I estimate that my battery will hold the <1 mile home and keep driving.
I pull up to the light as I exit the freeway and notice steam pouring out of...

We had great weather for the start. The storms had all cleared through, but the ground was still damp. This really kept the dust to a minimum...
A friend and I are running the Mojave Road next week and have room for a few more. . .

So, en route to SNT Friday I stop at the Gaviota rest area to let Bubba out for some water and a poop when an Irish Setter attacks him and shreds his left ear.
He is bleeding profusely and several people rush in to help. After the third wad of paper towels are completely soaked I can finally...
I wanted to run a report after adding the supercharger to see how things looked; unfortunately I couldn't find the oil sample I pulled, so I had to wait another 10,000 miles:mad:
Then I end up finding the last sample buried in the garage right after pulling this sample, so I sent them in...

After reading all the speaker install threads, I decided to do something a little different. . .
My goal was to increase the size of the front speakers, install seperate tweeters in the doors, and have it appear as if it came that way from the factory.
You be the judge if I was...
