  1. did you get an alert about this reply?
  2. I know the 93-95 are (both disk and drum versions). not sure on the other years. car-part.com might be able to give an answer.
  3. yes, but is this what was there? or did someone make a pickup out of a viper?
  4. moved

    Trailer P.S.A.

    trailers are the hardest thing to secure. super easy to just chain to the truck and go. there is no perfect anti-theft device to stop a pro. But I figure I can irritate the hell out of them. My particular method is to have a simple lock on the hitch (so it's not stupid easy and they see a lock), and then wrap a strong cable lock under the frame and through the rims in such a way that they can travel 10 feet and then the tire locks up (similar in principle to what Brandon posted). but I don't advertise this with a flashy cable. it's just a black pinky-thick 6ft cable with a padlock on the end. but my theory is that the absolute mess they will experience will dissuade them from trying to keep going and they might abandon the theft. In the end, if I see long black streaks coming out of the driveway but no trailer, I can at least laugh at what they went through to take it.
  6. the stripe appears to be there
  7. just a note, the bumper isn't powder coated, it's not an Alcantara wheel, and you of course don't have a rack-n-pinion steering. those are reused codes that meant different things back in the day.
  8. never underestimate a nice MJ
  9. grab that column!
  10. yup, sounds like a 4.0 to me. been through hell and back... still runs I think we need a new thread about what the 4.0 has survived
  11. is there a story to go with that? what failed?
  12. I tried to plant marigolds but they were unavailable that late in the season in Georgia.
  13. honestly, if my plan was to use the truck kinda rough and cover up scratches with a rattle can, I'd probably use a rattle can for the whole thing. scuff, clean, paint, let dry. but then, I'm not one of those paint gurus you seek.
  14. have you tried talking to a automotive upholstery place for the seat cover material?
  15. ew part of me would want to just start fresh with new carpet, but another part of me is curious as to how well I could clean that at the DIY car wash.
  16. I think he's saying you know how to snap a good photo. which is surprisingly rare, even in this age of everyone snapping everything.
  17. I mean, we've covered just about every leak at some point in time here, but the knowledge is scattered and so each time we talk about it it becomes "could be anything, you just gotta figure it out". I'm sure we can do better than that. It only seems like there are infinite possibilities.
  18. whoops, looks like I never said rain. I meant rain leaks. although the oil leak situation is the same. if it can leak, it will leaked.
  19. I was thinking of something a bit more noob-friendly with photos and arrows or circles. and tips, like drilling a hole from teh engine bay through the wheelwell to keep water from pooling up in this area:
  20. seems to be a google account but I can't see them, even if I copy/paste the address. you can host them here at the comancheclub. just upload them from your computer. also, howdy friend! good to see ya!
  21. hats off to whoever put this together
  22. It's just a combo valve. best to remove it in favor of a prop valve from a Grand so as to better accmmodate those rear disks
  23. sometimes the truck just lets you know it's time for an upgrade
