    Automatic idle?

    yeah some of the amblances keys are so worn i can do that, and so can my stepdads truck, but its been recently replaced so thats a no go, plus someone can still drive it away, would like the motor to die if the brakes released or the footbrakes touched

    Automatic idle?

    okay, let me clarify things a bit: I dont want a remote start. I want the truck to be able to run Keyless, there are plenty of dirtbags around here and i dont like my truck running with the key in it. I also plan on a killswitch after i dump thousands into it. The ignition key has also been...

    What do the battery holders look like? and anyone selling?

    it turns out i have all the mountings except one long bolt which is broken at the base. Also, they dont seem to go down far enough to secure my batteries, guess they were made for bigger batteries, any tips?

    Deathwobble fixed and back again, help!

    Yeah i know, it def the front end. I can feel vibrations in the steering wheel even when its not wobbling. That leads me to believe its the uneven tires or alignment. I really dont know why it would go away for a few days then suddenly come back though

    Deathwobble fixed and back again, help!

    i should also mention i have 16.5 rims in the front while i have 16s in the rear, would that matter?

    Deathwobble fixed and back again, help!

    thanks, ill do that and check the stabilizer saturday. Im also gonna recheck the movement on the tires and maybe rotate them to the back since they're uneven. If i find anything bad ill replace it, otherwise ill wait 2 weeks and get tires with the balance and alignment and see if that helps

    Deathwobble fixed and back again, help!

    if tie rod ends and steering shaft contribute to the death wobble how do i check them? Ive read how to check the stabilizer but it just said it should have smooth movement, should i replace if its too easy to move or "worn"? Springs and bushings were bought from an ebay store recomended by a...
