Congrats!!! That is one clean truck! Nice! How is the 6-speed/clutch holding up?

Thanks guys. I did it the hard way--I had the truck up on stands last night, yanked the wheels, and had a new set of Pirelli Scorpion STR's mounted first thing this morning... I appreciate the input--what a bone-headed move!!! Now the next order of business is re-doing my exhaust so that I can keep my spare where it belongs...

I've heard the same thing too, but with respect to it overheating and prematurely killing the oil... If the service intervals are maintained, I too think it should be fine. With respect to the "power not going anywhere," it is best to remember that our engines are a lot like big air pumps, and they are always moving the air in and out, so there is a lot of energy being exchanged even if the transmission is seeing none of it...

Fook me. I knew it... I'll put it up on blocks and yank the wheels myself then... Is there any way/need to "unwind" the transfer case? I've driven it this way for about 30 miles--any chance that I've hurt anything?

Folks, I had a bad blow out this past weekend (very rainy in SoCal, worst time for a flat,etc...) and had to mount a pair of 275/45 20's on the front of my SS. Will this hurt the diffs if I drive it around for a couple of days? I ordered a set of Pirelli Scorpion STR's, but they won't be in until Wednesday. Thanks!

YGM--I'm interested in a couple amps and a sub....

YGM... $150, shipped?

Okay... the plot thickens. So I was just a bit worried (though no lights came on...), and called Jesse at Wait4me. He instucted me to do the re-learn anyway (something about it relying on his figures temporarily, and it being better off doing a re-learn on its own). I took it to a local indy shop that re-sets lights, etc. They plugged in a diagnostic tool, took about 5 or so minutes, then told me it was "done" and charged me $20. I didn't see them rev the truck up or anything, although they did start it and let it idle while they fiddled with the tool. Does this sound right? Fook me--I dislike feeling like a noob, and I'm thinking I should just send Wait4me the $200 for their diagnostic tool (that can accomplish these re-learnes, etc.). IN any event, I'll wait a couple weeks and see if things remain kosher. So far so good...

Did you have to do the Crank Re-Learn? I'm going on day 3, and so far, so good... I fell in love with my truck all over again!

Hey, Arizona Speed and Marine are also an alternative! But I did notice that I have different, longer plug wires... At least I think I do... and now that I take a closer look, it looks like one or two are kind of too close...

Well, it would be difficult to get wrong--I mean, I made sure the green conneector went back into green, blue into blue, disconnected the negative terminal, etc... I even made sure the orange "gaskets" were in place properly. It acted like it should at first (rough running, very low idle, etc.), then smoothed out over the "learning" drive. Did you have to do a crank relearn on yours?

I'm selling my PCM4Less tuned PCM. It is set up for Long Tube headers, CAI, Shift-kit equipped transmission, and 93 octane gas. My truck also has 4 02 sensors, so yours should have 4, or 2 02 with 2 emulators. This is an aggressively-tuned PCM and I would not recommend it for anyone who lives in an area without 93 octane gas... $110, shipped. Please PM or reply here. Thanks!

UPDATE: I bolted on the PCM last night, and guess what? No Crank Position Relearn necessary!!! I followed Mr. P's instructions to a t (removed the negative battery terminal, etc...), and then went to start the key relearn--that wasn't necessary either. THe truck strated right up, but ran very, very rough and would not idle... I coaxed it out of the garage, onto the street, then went for a nice 15-mile loop... things started to clear up right away--and what an improvement!!! I had a PCM4Less Tune in the old PCM, and it was just too aggressive for the truck. It was set-up for 93-cotane fuel, which of course, we don't have in California (at least not anywhere close to Los Angeles). IT used to ping and detonate quite a bit on the gas, and that is completely gone now. No I just get smooth, forceful acceleration and firm, but not ridiculous, shifts. COuld it be that programmers can now eliminate the need for the crank & key relearn? Wait4me asked for my VIN--maybe there's a way to program it in the PCM now? The Wait4Me was a good buy for me...

...the wonders of video editing...
