    Not charging - but battery light is off

    Key on, the dash lights up normal, the battery light works. Key on, engine on, the battery light goes out, but it’s not charging. I only noticed on the drive home today once the radio and dash backlight started crapping out. Turned off all electrical and limped home. The charging gauge on the...

    Ok let me get this straight; Transgo kit New filter New valve body gaskets NEW solenoid pack, not reman. (It's apart, might as well right?) 5-7 quarts of Mercon V This should be the right setup correct?

    ABS or shifting issues with 33s and a lift?

    I've done some searching here but nothing definitive came up. There is a nice set of 255/85 tires sitting in my shop begging to go on with my shackles but I'm not pulling the trigger until I can ascertain if the trans will shift right or if I'll get an abs light. Any experiences out there with...

    Shocks and locker

    What do they mean on the website that it won't install in a limited slip diff? That the LSD must be removed (duh) or that you have to start with an open diff due to the carrier being different?

    Alignment

    I don't live in America. 99% of vendors for truck parts don't ship here and you can't buy much aftermarket stuff here.

    Alignment

    I have been doing my own cars for some time. I have a decent little alignment gauge. Now the steering wheel is a bit off so I plan on setting the toe. I see the castor is adjustable but the camber is not. I took the tires off recently and saw quite a bit of inside wear and the cupping from...

    Finally got stuck, almost rolled it. Locker? 4x4?

    I've got some 255/70/16 Goodyear MT/R ready to go on. The crapular Forteras I have right now will become marine bumpers for some tug boat soon. They are just a good snow tire, that's it. The way a vehicle drives with a tight rear end isn't foreign to me and I'm not one to step on the gas too...

    Finally got stuck, almost rolled it. Locker? 4x4?

    Went up the local mountian recently and hit snow and ice just at the worst spot too. Really vertical with big diteches on a curve. Once the truck was sliding and I hit the brakes it just slid right into the ditch. After trying to avoid rolling it, backing around the corner and not taking the...

    heater blower motor control

    The part can be had from Radio Shack, takes about 7 minutes to replace. Digi-key also sells the part. About $3 to fix. I like to solder.

    235/85 16 and a lift?

    Coming from my rally experience, skinny tires do better in the snow and I see a lot of snow. I have to drive over a 1000 foot pass every day for a commute. I know, big tires are all the rage but I see a lot of people running 235/85 16 on their Rangers around here and I like the look. I put...
