    Headlight, Running Light Help

    Ok does the harness cover all the lights under the hood? I ended up believe it or not finding a brand new oem wiring harness for under the hood also. What did you do with the old resistors for the horn and blower motor replace them or can you bypass them? I am also curious to know we're they...

    Headlight, Running Light Help

    Ok I appreciate all the help. It looks like I am going to have to dig into her a little more. One thing I can tell you about the truck is the previous owner used house wiring to wire up a trailer hitch receptacle lol. I have fixed a ton of stuff already but you know how it is with these...

    Headlight, Running Light Help

    Dang ok. Yeah I wouldn't be surprised with this truck. But wouldn't a short cause this thing to be blowing the fuse? In the meantime when I get some free time I will check the wiring. I wish I could have all new wiring for thr truck. Semper Fi thanks again

    Headlight, Running Light Help

    I don't even know how 9mm got inserted sorry lol. Yeah I figured it was probably going to need to be replaced. Honestly everything else seems ok in there I just want a way to correct this issue. If anyone has replaced that terminal let me know the best way to go about it? Thanks

    Headlight, Running Light Help

    9mm Ok yeah I am leaning towards your approach. So today I cleaned up the whole truck harness and connections. The headlight fuse spot honestly doesn't look bad behind it. I also removed the fuse for the horn to see if it helps. The truck is pretty much stock except for it looks to be...

    Headlight, Running Light Help

    Hey everyone I am having a little issue with my headlights here lately. My fuse is apparently getting hot to the point it's melting but not blowing. I did some research on here and have heard it's commonly over loaded and it could even be the horn fuse which I took out today. There is a tiny...

    Warn 11690 locking hubs

    Yeah they seem nice I was looking at them this evening in person at oriellys who actually had a set in stock. I really like the turn to lock because it's got great spring pressure compared to mine right now which may also be because mine (oem) are worn out and they seem to really engage nice...

    Warn 11690 locking hubs

    One of the caps is busted and I was lucky to get 4 of the bolts out of the hub cap and they are toast. I don't see a service kit that's oem for these trucks because I think locking hubs like I have were only on the military version. I am pretty sure our dana 60 is 30 spline. Also warn carries...

    Warn 11690 locking hubs

    I have been doing a ton of work to my truck here lately and I am seriously considering purchasing these hubs if they fit? I am almost positive they do and my only question is on one site it says I need to purchase corresponding spindle nut conversion kit? We'll I know we have a spindle nut kit...

    Wheel bearing pre load

    Ok I definitely saw how you can tighten up these bearings and they get a little tough to spin at an estimated 65 ft lbs. I then ended up trying the 50 ft lb and back off 90 degree method and I about lined up perfectly with the nut and the rotor spun nice with no bearing noise or play at all. I...

    Wheel bearing pre load

    Ok I appreciate it. I am about done getting the new ujoint on the axle shaft and then I gotta press the races in. You wouldn't happen to know the torque spec for the drag link ends would you? I am replacing that as well

    Wheel bearing pre load

    OK your method is all done with the first lock nut only correct? The last nut just seems to lock the first nut in place. Hopefully I am understanding correctly and what do you think your final torque really is because mine wasn't anywhere near 150 taking it off. I wish you had a video on how...

    Wheel bearing pre load

    My big lock ring came right out for the locking hub assembly. I was lucky and had a good day lol. So I am used to the newer style vehicles were you have the bearing in the hub and you just bolt it up. Honestly I have never owned anything I have had to repack bearings. I know when bearings...

    Wheel bearing pre load

    Alright guys I have been replacing a good amount of stuff on the front end here lately from the drag link to wheel bearings, spindle bearings, and axle shaft u joints on both sides. The other day I luckly came across a really bad axle shaft u joint that literally has no needle bearings in the...

    Drag Link Part Numbers

    Alot of that says tie rods unless the tie rod ends are about the same as the drag link ends? This is what I ended ordering from parts geek. My part numbers were AC Delco 45A6002 (adjuster sleeve), AC Delco 45A0195, and AC Delco 45A0194. One end is like six something inches and the other...

    Drag Link Part Numbers

    For some reason on my phone it says not a secure download which is weird because I got them before awhile back.

    Drag Link Part Numbers

    I am having trouble downloading the correct TM so I can locate the part numbers for the drag link. I am wanting to replace both ends and sleeve if someone has the correct part numbers for oriellys or autozone. My tire has tore up the one end and regardless it's all worn out and needing replacing
