I'm sending out the email with the expanded member list today. this is NOT a "deadline" though. at any time, anyone can send me their info and I'll pass it along to 4WD. :thumbsup:
try yanking out the intermittent box. it's a small plastic box under the dash on the drivers side with a plug going in and a plug going out. remove the plugs and plug them into each other (which is how it is in non-intermittent trucks). that should tell you if the box is bad.
