I have a 2013 with about 150k and just noticed a puddle in the driveway. Popped the hood and found coolant everywhere! Cleaned that up and started the truck to find a crack in the top of the radiator near the raised label plate…just had this truck at the dealership for new tires and an oil...
Well as the title says, I’m getting a Intermittent check engine light on my 2013 with 140k. Cleared it with my SacnGauge but it returned a few days later. Since then it’s gone back off but it only gets driven about 10 miles a day.
Quick google search says “Output Speed Sensor No Circuit” but...
I've had my 80 for about 7 years with a 40 and 60 preceding that. Finally picked up a '99 with 166k for the wife after missing out on numerous others. Still looking for a cleaner example because it's got a bit of rust but I'm used to it living up here in the belt. The po was an accountant and...
First and foremost, yes it may be a hazard in a high speed accident. If you would like to comment on the dangers of this setup please feel free to post your concerns, I am open to criticism. On the other hand, my halon fire extinguishers are easier to access the ever:)
I don't have a dog but I use the middle row like a truck bed sometimes, throwing whatever rusty metal and garbage I need to haul around back there. I don't want to mess my new leather up so I've been using a moving blanket for awhile. Figured I'd step it up a notch so here's what a $18...
This weekend my exhaust gave out and had a local exhaust shop put a new cat on my EMS sytem. I asked them to install the unit before the flange but they decided to chop out the flange and weld it solid. I stated my displeasure and was told it had to be done, I didn't want to ruin any future...
Something I've been working on for a while and thought I would share. Since I've got a lot of home automation set up I figured I'd try and automate some systems in my cruiser. I've added the ability to monitor voltage and temperature as well as lock/unlock and remote start all from my iPhone...
I was looking for a simple drawer to use as the base of a sleeping platform and couldn't find anything with the dimensions I wanted. My goal was to have a comfortable bed for one with the rear seats installed and still keep the fridge in the truck. I have a welder but it's a lot of work and not...
Looking for a low profile slide out tray for the cargo area and think the extendobed looks promising. While I'm waiting for a reply from them about dimensions, pricing, mounting etc i wanted to nail down actual dimensions. Has anyone done a detailed drawing that they would like to share? I would...
Just wondering if anyone has looked into some sort of helper spring/torsion bar to alleviate the increased weight of the tailgate when loaded with gear.
Something like this:

So I had my tires rotated and balanced today and when I inspected the work I noticed the front passengers coil was off of the perch. Guy looked baffled when I pointed it out so we went back to the lift and I saw they lifted the truck from the frame. Is this the correct way to lift a cruiser...
I purchased a 12k titan winch through a group buy a few years ago, never got around to installing it until this weekend. Picked up a harbor freight winch plate and got after it.
While wrenching this winter I snapped the plastic nipple off the top of the OEM radiator and eventually decided to throw down for a Ron Davis radiator. The install went well minus a few parts I didn't plan on replacing (I wont put rusted parts back on my rig) but all in all no major problems...
I was snooping around under the hood and noticed this. No big deal but does anyone know the part number for this hose off hand? Would some type of blockage cause this or just normal wear? Thanks
Wild this fit in a 97 LC?

I see the fill/cap is on the wrong side but the trans cooler is there. Maybe this has been discussed but I couldn't find any info on it. Mine needs...
I was just wrenching on my truck and managed to snap off this nipple, what are my options? I am in my driveway with lots of tools and an auto parts store nearby. Can I plug this with job weld or something till I can get a radiator ordered up?
So I installed a set of switchback led's from eBay in the new 1157 dual filament sockets that come with the innovative wiring harness. I purchased a four pack from eBay for about $80. http://www.ebay.com/itm/280872054785?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Here's a quick video of...
