    2bbl-4bbl intake and carb best bang for the buck?

    Nope, no A/C. I'm just wanting a new 4bbl intake because I want a little more power and it needs replaced. If I do that then I need a new 4bbl carb. But I'm looking around Craigslist and the 2nd Gen forums for a 488 V10/trans/transfer. I would kill to do that swap!!!!

    Tuff Country, Worth It?

    I had decent luck with the rough country short arm 5' lift on my 2nd Gen, but then got a BDS long arm lift and wow the difference was huge. Better ride, more flex (I know I went from short arm to long arm but still) and a lot better road manners. I have a skyjacker on my 3rd Gen and its a...

    Sick of Low Quality Stereo...

    I just put in a pioneer system last week. I will do a thread tomorrow with pics if I remember lol, but the HU is badass, it is a nice blue display, high quality feeling everything, gloss black. Dial isn't loose and everything is well laid out. I bought two pioneer 6x9's and two 6.5's to go with...

    85 W250 318 bad problems...

    Filter and pump are brand new. I'm running new lines next week, I'll try blocking the return. Distributor cap is brand new, but the rotor I old. It didn't feel like the engine was being starved for fuel, it felt like it was flooded but idled fine, hasn't done it since but now I'm curious

    85 W250 318 bad problems...

    Update: So I got in her this morning, fired her up and it has fixed itself. Runs and drives perfect. I'm so confused now lol.

    85 W250 318 bad problems...

    So I was driving tonight and everything was fine. I was heading up a hill and giving her a good amount of gas and then I lost what feels like half my cylinders.... I stopped and the crazy part it is, it idles fine. Even the first 16th-8th of the pedal works fine but if I push any further it...

    What Did You Do To Your RAM Today?

    Put a dual in dual out flowmaster super 50 with 4" dual tips dumped in front of the passenger rear tire. It's semi quiet with great tone. Simply amazing. Pics later.

    85 W250 now has no idle...

    Well she's fixed! Two bottles of good ole Lucas upper cylinder lubricant carb/injector cleaner and all better. So I guess my dirty carb theory was correct.

    85 W250 now has no idle...

    85 W250 now has no idle...

    85 W250 now has no idle...

    One from the tank, a return to the tank, and one to the carb

    85 W250 now has no idle...

    OK so the filter and pump helped but didn't solve. So I'm thinking pcv valve and/or carb needs cleaned/rebuilt. What do y'all think? I don't think it's just an idle screw problem because its ran and idled great till two days ago.

    85 W250 now has no idle...

    I think it would be easier to just replace it.. It's 30 years old and only $19 lol

    85 W250 now has no idle...

    Found the vacuum line problem from two posts ago. Drove it twice this morning and everything was great went to drive it a third time and it won't idle, it tries but dies. So every stop sign and signal I have to go to neutral and give her a tiny bit of gas. If it does die I have to put some gas...

    need help identifying this light

    How hard is it to put I a headliner? The fabric part is easy I have replaced them before but the backing. Did you buy it or make your own?

    need help identifying this light

    But if you already have the map and some, no reason to install overhead. Especially since 85's don't have headliners. Just put in LED's and no shadows and really well lit

    need help identifying this light

    But the cab light and map light together dominate overhead lights. Overhead lights cause a floorboard shadow. The cab and map light together don't and illuminate the whole cab very well. Especially with LED's in them

    need help identifying this light

    need help identifying this light

    Mine has one as well that works and I looove it. Adds a lot more light to the cab, I don't know why they ever stopped putting them in
