    I may be a fwonkin' idiot :-(

    So pretty much since I have owned the truck(coming up on 2 years :thumbs:) my ABS AND brake light come on shortly after I start driving. To lazy to go out and take a pic,but you know the symbol (!)(P). I THOUGHT it was in conjunction with the ABS light and warning of the module being fwonked...

    Firestik CB and Radio Antenna Cowl Set Up

    Looks good gramps. :thumbs: I'm not giving up yet. "Back in the day" all my friends and I had "redneck cell phones" in our vehicles. :D I might be getting a traveling job in the near future and that's why I have moved the CB up on the project list. My roof is at 7' now and with my SAS (down the...

    Regular Bed Width Measurement

    I know it might be a small PITA, but I need a measurement from lip to lip on a standard NBS/GMT 800 bed. I'm not sure if over the years they've changed slightly or not that's why I'm asking for specific year(s).:dunno: The picture shows what I need. Also a measurement of the lip height...

    Firestik CB and Radio Antenna Cowl Set Up

    Most reviews I've read on functionality, looks and features seem to make it almost the Cadillac of CBs :D Well better then I'll ever want/need for something I probably won't use as much as an avid traveler.

    Firestik CB and Radio Antenna Cowl Set Up

    As for height,I was hoping to have decent range with a 3'. I'm trying to avoid having to much height wise. I will be going up another 5"(ish) with my SAS soo.... As for dual antennas and the short distance between. I thought having one for CB and one for am/fm would allow for minimal...

    Firestik CB and Radio Antenna Cowl Set Up

    So I'm kicking around getting a CB for the truck "just because". I'm most likely going with this: http://www.walcottcb.com/cobra-29-lx-multicolor-faceplate-radio-p-2074.html. I will be mounting it in place of the factory aux tape deck after modifying the opening. Giving it a "factory...

    Glad to help.:thumbs: That's what my plan was. A pair of magnaflow high flows. The exhaust guy said go without all together.:dunno: If your saying cats help reduce the exhaust fumes (or the smell at least) I'll spend the extra $ on them. I thought by upgrading my intake and exhaust...

    Custom Tune Clarification

    Thanks for clearing that up guys.:cheers: I was thinking it would run, but didn't want to change that shiz out and have it limping out the driveway/shop and I would be S.O.L. until I got a tune.:ohnoes: Here's a link for you :jrod...

    Custom Tune Clarification

    I understand the basic principal of having a custom tune to maximize performance, gas mileage(or gas usage) etc. ,but I am a little confused as to some of the specifics.:confused:' For example at some point I will rebuild my motor into a 383ci stroker,but for starters I want to swap out my...
