Got rid of the annoying popping noise on the passenger side........

Ordered online and picked up in store. After discount it was $32.
Had to also pickup a 21mm wrench but now I'll be ready when the driver's side begins to complain.

Give me a bit. I'm at work and the wife has the truck. I think she's coming here in a bit so I'll snap a pic.mcsteven said:

Torqued down front and rear end links and greased, no more knocking. Siliconed all bushings to eliminate creeking in rear end.

When I did this mod, I used side firing strips, so they pointed forward. Much better light output at night. Looks good though man.jomulk56 said:

blew my tranny 
The tranny was slowly slipping in D or 3 when I would go WOT. I would have to let off the gas and then it would shift. Under normal driving conditions, the tranny acts fine. Fast track to yesterday, a late 90's Dodge Durango lines up next me at a light revving his motor the whole time. Well I'm sure you can all guess what happened next...
long story short, don't try and race when you have a slipping tranny
I lost by about 5 car lengths

well depending on the cause and failed parts, I will just rebuild it and if I can get away with/afford maybe like a sonnax performance kit, then i'll have them throw that in there to replace the worn parts. I've been in talks with folks on ssowners and it seems like a booster pump, some kind of spring, & something else could be the cause. the trans wouldn't have to be dropped to get to those parts (except the booster pump) so I might get lucky with labor as well...
first thing is first. I have to find a reputable transmission ship because I am not going to the dealer for this

Discovered that my 200k mile original fan clutch is shot. AC was blowing warm and kept cycling and I could stop my fan with my thumb with barely any pressure at all.
OK then.
I may just let it go for a little while, but if/when I replace the clutch I'll put a new water pump in it. Don't want to do the job twice and that pump is original too.

No. Cut a slot in the plastic and slid the belt clip in it. That way I can still use the holster.jomulk56 said:

Checked out my failing LEDs and the problem seems to be the LEDs themselves. Contacted Ebay seller and he shipped out replacements free of charge
