    2nd gen Geno's Garage cup holder

    Kept this when I sold my truck. It'll fit early 2nd gens (94-97) and takes care of the crappy cup holders we had. I absolutely loved it in mine. Could use a good wipe down but it's still in good condition. Just missing the self-tapping screw that comes with it. Never needed it with mine though...

    Oil PSI fluctuation

    Fuel issues

    I've got something goin on with my fuel gauge or sending unit. Spec sheet for my truck shows a 26 gal tank. Stopped at a gas station to fill up from around 1/8th of a tank and could only squeeze in 17 gallons. The math says I should have 3 1/4 gallons when I stopped which puts me at around 20...

    Another electrical issue

    Got in my truck tonight to head home from work and now my turn signals are acting up (thanks Brandon). They'll blink once then flash really fast, almost like a strobe. I haven't had a chance to look at anything but I've never seen a flasher cause this. I'm thinking it's in the switch itself...

    Weird trans sound

    Got in my truck this afternoon to leave the college, put it in reverse and heard this weird howling sound as I was idling back out of the parking spot I was in. Put in in drive and no sound. Stopped at the end of the parking lot and put it back in reverse and no sound. Checked it when I got home...

    PD'd my entire truck

    Just kidding :D But it was covered in dew this morning and had a nice satin finish over most of it. I think it actually looks pretty good but don't think I'd ever do it to my DD Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Trouble with a '99

    Not sure if this is the right section, as I am pretty clueless when it comes to diesels but my uncle called me with a question about his '99 cummins. He said he filled up with diesel this morning and drove the truck around for the rest of the day without any issues. Killed it a few times and...

    So I'm in the middle of coating my wheels and can't decide if I want to go completely black or not. The lugs are staying chrome so I wad thinking about leaving the M/T and the design in the middle of the center cap chrome. So should I go all black or leave the little chrome in the middle...

    New intake

    Looks like I'll be buying a new intake manifold for my truck. Put a new water pump on my truck about 7 months ago and broke a bolt off in the intake that holds the water outlet down. Got it out and put a heli-coil in and thought it was good. Started seeping water about 3 months ago. Put a new...

    Thinking about an accent color

    I'm still not 100% set on the all black look for my truck. All the chrome is going but I've been trying to come up with a good accent color. It'll be going on the lip of my new to me wheels, calipers, drums, custom grill emblem, and some of the lift parts. Red is overdone and, IMO, only looks...

    Opinions on Mickey Thompson wheels

    Found a set of the Classic II's on craigslist this morning I'm thinking about picking up to get rid of my rubbing on full lock. Anyone have any experience with MT wheels? Quality and finish or anything? These are polished but they'll probably end up black before they hit my truck. Here's a pic...

Drove to a friends house to pick up a load of bricks and when I got in to leave, it was dragging again but this time it fired up then died. Tried it a few more...
