    Looking for center console for 95+ 60/40 bench seat

    Thank you, this is a big help! And the original concern was just that - breaking something!

    Looking for center console for 95+ 60/40 bench seat

    I thought about trying to find one of these in a yard. How do you remove them?

    I love plastic engine parts!

    I never had problems with my OE plastic Vortec covers, but I never lived in extreme heat. Body lifts provided extra cooling clearances for me, though. I think I'm the only person I know that enjoyed them more for service access to things, not just off road clearance. :waytogo:

    AD244 VS DELCO AD244

    AD244 is the build architecture of the alternator itself. Both of those alternators you listed should be the same external dimensions and connections. :waytogo:

    COB LED 3rd Brake/Cargo Lights

    Just sharing a mod. I haven't tried any aftermarket 3rd brake lights/cargo lights, but I wasted a whole bunch of time COBbling (get it?) COB lights behind the factory 3rd brake light/cargo lens. Comparison shot incandescent vs. LED board. Operating at full voltage, truck running. I know...

    Manual Cargo Light?

    Finally did this, and it works great. I tore my truck all apart trying to find a different way to do it - this method is definitely the easiest and most effective. I made a mess trying to get creative with it. :jester: I used a butt splice and opted for liquid tape to seal it from corrosion...

    Good wheel offset?

    How wide of a rim did you plan on running?

    Manual Cargo Light?

    I know this is an old thread, but I think I'd like to do this too. Subscribed to help myself remember, and I'll let everyone know how it goes!

    eBay finds: 88-98 aftermarket accessories

    I've bought aftermarket components for years and it's fun to watch the accessories change with the times. I know I bought a set of 2005-popular JC Whitney tail lights that I liked enough to buy again for nostalgia sake when I saw them on eBay. The reflector in the reverse light was excellent...

    Holley Classic Bumpers?

    I apologize in advance if I'm not much help. But how picky are you on it being brand new? Only asking because another member has a chrome OEM one in our classifieds right now if you haven't seen it. :) I don't have any experience with Holley's new ones. The former LMC Taiwanese...

    Daily driver/beater 2007 charger

    I would've thought rebuild prices would have come down for those by now. The 5 speed truck transmissions (not the NAG1 like the cars) also costed $1,800 for a rebuild... And that was more than a decade ago!

    My Flat Tappet Cam Wiped Out So I Decided To Go Roller

    That situation was on an EBL Flash with a smaller Comp "Computer Controlled," cam. I'm not sure if it was a band-aid for excessive cylinder pressure, fuel distribution, or another error on my part. ...Tuning slightly richer than textbook worked for me. :driver: The big cam learning...

    My Flat Tappet Cam Wiped Out So I Decided To Go Roller

    My apologies, looks like this was discussed maybe 40 pages ago and I entirely missed the memo. :rofl: These are just ideas... Short version: if you're still showing knock at idle with your newly adjusted timing, try adding a little fuel and see if it reduces it or goes away. I'm not sure if...
