    Good deal on Superlift 4" lift leaf springs

    that doesn't make any sense..... these trucks have a hell of a sag anyway....4in lift springs and a TT will probley get you very close to level. this "slopPed body lift" nonsense is one of the dumbest things ive ever herd.....but if that's what you wanna do....then go for it. :salute:

    Pulling the trigger on the Superlift

    Help! I want to lift my truck!

    they're ACTUALLY equal to a 32/10.5/16 NOT a 33 they measure 31.6 x 10.4. soooo, its really "a skinny 32" don't mean to nitpik you, but.....its not a 33, a 33 would be 285/75/16....and a 285/70/16 would actually be a 32 also.. 32/11.5 :salute:

    Do 03s have hall sensors?

    Do 03s have hall sensors?

    the only thing involved in ingauging the 4x4 is that motor and the switch telling it to move. with the motor housing off and in your hand the transfer case can be turned manually into 4high 4low. this is based on 2002 ST. I worked on recently.....which I believe are the same.. the...

    Do 03s have hall sensors?

    sound like 2 totally different issues... you have one speed sensor in the rear diff. for ABS the other two are in the front hubs. neither of which have anything to do with the 4x4 system. you need to see if the motor is actually moving....my guess is NO. :salute:

    Do 03s have hall sensors?

    if you mean (hall effects) sensor...??? these type of sensors are made to "bridge" a gap in voltage using a maganet....and yes, I believe your truck uses a crank sensor (hall effects)....other types are vss sensors for ABS, and traction control. as far as fixing your 4x4...?? electronic...

    uummmm....no you blew your trans up......its as easy as that... start hunting for another transmission.... it honestly sounded like the seals were not sealing until the fluid got hot. and by that time. "it leaks like a siv" (which is the worst thing for a tranny, running it...

    Exhaust Size

    well, if youre "designing" your own exhaust system, don't you think a good start would be to measure your OWN exhaust and see what the specs are..?? instead of taking someones word for it..??? I mean......how do you know its 2.5in...??? crawl under the truck with a caliper and find out...

    5r55e shift flare help

    solenoids don't carry "voltage"......solenoids should all (however) have a certain ohms reading, and should ALL at least have continuity. if you happen to find one without continuity, its bad.... best thing to do, is compare all the ohms readings, they should all be close....although im...
