    01-10 steering box redhead ,PSC ,OEM

    You guys who ordered the Cardone 978418GB box, did the picture show a four bolt box when you ordered it? Just looked it up on rock auto and it shows a 4 bolt. I'm due for a full front end rebuild and would like to do something with my steering gear that isn't a PSC at this point. Leaning to this...

    LBZ HVAC Issues

    I’ve had troubles with those before as well on other trucks of mine. I would lose one or more of the number settings on manual controls for fan speed. This truck has the digital temp display with the dual knobs. I have noticed one out of every 10 or so times I start the truck, the fan will work...

    LBZ HVAC Issues

    I have not tried that yet. I only tested the fuse with a multimeter. I’ll give that a shot as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    LBZ HVAC Issues

    Ok. Thanks I will try to see if I can find it. I’m having issues getting my alldata to load due to data and lack of internet since I’m traveling. I must have misunderstood something I read. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    LBZ Power Steering/Steering Gear Issues

    Thanks guys for the input. I’d heard somewhere blue top was related to a guy who used to work for red head or something, but don’t know anyone who’s had any of his products. Just for reference, I wandered into GMC dealer outside Cumberland, and they quoted me at $740 for a GM one. I laughed a...

    LBZ Power Steering/Steering Gear Issues

    Hey guy, I have a 2006 CCSB with about 205k on it and within the last two weeks installed a new 2011 hydroboost, acdelco master cylinder and the power stop Z36 (or something close to that) kit with new brakes, calipers, rotors, and Russell braided stainless soft lines. I have regularly flushed...

    LBZ HVAC Issues

    My Google fu is not strong, but I have looked all over for help with this issue without any luck. My truck is an 06 CCSB with the dual zone automatic climate controls and before departing on a cross country trip, I noticed my heater fan was not operating. I checked the plug going to the blower...

    Duck/Goose Season

    Any of you guys getting ready to slay some birds? Season here starts mid October and I’ve been out doing some scouting and shooting. Had to be better than last year around here.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Easy 30-40HP

    Any of you guys ever tried piston return springs? Seems like an easy thing to do when you have the heads off for some other reason. They say they work for gas and diesel rigs. Source: https://youtu.be/dlQn7-LsLww Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Differences in ignition cylinders

    So if I’m understanding everything correctly, this is what I meant. Your door is the key that came with the truck and if so, that key code would be the one the dealer would pull for for truck. You don’t have that key. The dealer should be able to cut you a key that will work with your door and...

    Longer than usual cranking time

    Something I would try before your first start where it cranks more is try manually priming the system. See if there is any air that comes out of the bleeder screw or if the manual pump isn’t firm and you can push it down. It’s possible you might have a leak of some sort allowing a little air...

    Differences in ignition cylinders

    I’m with Brick on this one. Re-keying your ignition cylinder is not hard to do and would certainly be easier than replacing the door cylinder and trying to figure out what ignition cylinder will work. The one you have now works, I take it. When I replaced the one on my 06, a buddy of mine that...

    Longer than usual cranking time

    Sounds like it could be losing prime. Do you have a lift pump? Stock fuel filter or some sort of adapter to run a different style fuel filter? Do you still have the plastic bleeder screw? It could be time for a filter head rebuild. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2005 Ford Explorer trans codes

    Just to update, the explorer is exhibiting symptoms very close to things I have read. Hanging up on 1-2, slipping, other gears shifting normally, not shifting into overdrive. Dropped the pan Friday and maybe slightly more clutch material than I would like to see. Nothing glittery nor important...

    2005 Ford Explorer trans codes

    Good to know. I wondered about that as the website with the oversize solenoids and other reading I’ve done didn’t have much good to say about the incorrect gear speed. That’s part of why I want to drop the pan and see if the band fork or something is laying in the bottom. I appreciate the reply...

    2005 Ford Explorer trans codes

    My friend has an 05 explorer 4.0 V6 2wd with the 5R55S and it’s throwing P0775, P0735 which are for pressure control solenoid B and 5th gear incorrect ratio. Also the overdrive off light is on the dash. I haven’t had a chance to take a look at this thing as I’m building a chicken coop and...

    Which Polymer Pistol?

    That’s what has caught my attention with the .45a That’s Awesome to hear and not totally surprising either from what I’ve read about the huge jump from 10mm. Good to hear from a reputable source as I have the same mags available for my G41 project. Thank you for the the input and am curious...

    Which Polymer Pistol?

    I looked into converting my G21 to .45 super a while back, but wasn’t overwhelmed with the ballistic improvement so ended up not doing it. The .460 has come up on my radar more recently though and seems pretty bada** and definitely interests me. And I have a G41 that I really don’t use and would...
