A: is the cable that goes to the hot post on the voltage regulator. this is typically attached tothe positive terminal on the rear mounted battery.
B: is the negative which also has the ground for an alpine sound device.
C: This is the shunt that was cleaned and detailed.
I think what sparked the idea was someone's post on here where their brakes lost power and it was because the line drooped down onto the cv axle and got chewed up. kind of scared the beans out of me. Then it came time to do my own pads and it was difficult to refeed the fittings onto the caliper...
1. I checked the wiring from under the passenger seat to each appliance and they appear to be in good conduction.
2. I cleaned the negative terminals where they attach to the shunt. all of them are clean and have good wires.
3. The truck does not have have ancillary circuits to cause a draw...
- After I replaced the battery the first time, the truck was shifting fine. when I replace the battery, the truck would start just fine:
Light comes on then off. then it starts but there is a hesitation. Everything functions just fine. truck runs strong and shifts through the gears.
Ill have...
So my battery towards the front of the vehicle went bad. I replaced it with an optima red top. and in 4 days, that went bad too. The battery towards the rear is ok.
Observation 1: I noticed that while connecting the batteries with the key out of the ignition and ignition in off position, it was...
I used some spring compressors on the 4x4 armada spring to squeeze them onto the front with a spacer. I did cut off one ring and after doing so realized that it didnt lift like I wanted so I added the spacer. not I think I might have it to where I want it. If I could have done it all over again...
also in regards to what pieces, the banjo bolt at the caliper has a 20 degree fitting which allows us to angle the line away from the cv axle and keep it away. this makes it safer to run these lines as opposed to having a bunch of non steel braided line that hovers right above and around the cv...
Who: I went to a local shop that does custom brake lines and provided the specs on what I wanted. the beta models have worked extremely well and allow me to hang the calipers just by the steel braided lines. solid thangs.
What pieces: there is an AN fitting that connects to the splitter in the...
So I gave into an impulse buy and purchased the 3 inch Mikellis body lift. I intend on documenting how it goes step by step on this string. I know of 4 mods that must be completed along with the installation of these body spacers.
1. undoing brake master cylinder from body panel.
2. readjusting...
I had them custom made with the fittings I wanted and measurements. Costed 200 but well worth it considering they're much more reliable and converts the caliper connection with a banjo bolt connector. I also plan on wrapping it with spiral tube protector to keep the silicone cover and steel...
I didn't remove the undercarriage braces as well but removed the calipers and broke the driver side hard line. This caused me to just eff it and replace them with steel braided so I can remove the caliper and not have to breed in the future. The caliper can dangle by the steel braided line just...
Pressure tested to 10k psi. Made in America. Most of all DOT approved. 20 degree bed at banjo bolt at the caliper to provide most clearance to the cv axles. Steel braided and sheathed in clear silicone.
