    Gas pedal problem

    I have read a few threads on this forum as well as others about a temporary fix for a stretched accelerator cable ( to the gas pedal ) and have been using this fix since december 2014. After going away for 1 week and having the truck parked in my driveway, the gas pedal will not pull the...

    Individual lighting switches

    Thats what i thought. I have a separate fuse box laying around and 12g primary. I figure that should be good enough to not have any dimming issues.

Then had to cut 2 more for the jack stands. Made changing rotors and the track bar a PITA. Sears has some decent floor...

    Head light switch keeps burning up

    I live in Southern California. Most yards don't have much of anything definitely not a ram. Relays and switches aren't a hard task. For a personal touch and something to do I will do the switches and take pics along the way. Thanks for the advice/comments

Also, I am saving money to replace the bezel which crumbled in my hands during removal, and entire dash top is gone. Of course...

    Head light switch keeps burning up
