  1. next time maybe you will.. if you go to Bullhead again, off the 40, take the Daggett exit and just before the train tracks and that's National Trails Highway, Route 66, go east and enjoy the ride.. all the way to Needles..just have a full tank of gas...
  2. oh yes, beautiful down town Daggett.. i moved a couple month ago, only a few miles away. but i'm down at the AM-PM and the Vegas truck stop just about daily. what made you drive thru Daggett ? most people avoid it at all cost.. but it dose have it's history, from the 1880's and Route 66.
  3. the outer colors look good, but they have been over done. i think the original color would stick out more due to it being different than the rest..good luck on what you decide..
  4. should be able to pick this up cheep..but the shipping is going to suck.. BTW- congrats..
  5. well i have not had a drink in over 13 years.. my best was Courvoisier VSOP, or just the VS mixed with a plain coke.
  6. :crackup: my dad was based out of Dutch Harbor in the Navy during WW II. and he always use to say, that there were 2 woman behind every tree in Alaska..he said the only problem was that the nearest tree was over 150 miles away...
  7. they look like quick reference cards for a Sun engine diagnostics machine. the cards were like cheat sheets. ounce you had the car/truck hooked up, you pulled the card for that make/model and it had all the specs you needed for just about any repair.. every year Sun would have updated cards for you..this is OLD SCHOOL repair.. using a timing light, dwell meter, vacuum gauge, and a Osceola scope for tune ups. if you know what your doing you can get it spot on and tell what plug is a couple thousands out of gap, and what cylinders are low on compression they were great machines..this is the type of equipment i learned on back in the late 60's..
  8. in 03 there were only 1103 produced.. in 04 there were less around 950 produced. now take into account, how many have been stolen, wrecked beyond repair, repainted the numbers are getting less and less...
  9. that sounds more like a BCM issue. over the years GM has had issue with the BCM not switching components off when programmed to. one major issue was battery's going dead. most times the fix was to have the BCM reflashed and it took care of the problem. replacing/disconnecting the battery may have reset the BCM. if any more issue IMO i would get the BCM checked or reflashed.. good luck..
  10. i think this is the one your talking about. if i remember, it could not be sold due to no vin #...but could be wrong
  11. IMO- file a formal written complaint. sent registered to the Chief of Police and city council that should get some action. most/sometimes the shift supervisor is a "good ol boy" and may just blow it off... good luck
  12. it's not a direct bolt in. the biggest issue is the housing mounts i believe. someone stated that the front cross member is not compatible with the standard GM 4X4 front diff mounting points..you can inter change most parts, but you need to retain the center section..better off IMO just rebuild what you have..
  13. i got mine in Sept. 04 and from a dealer it was $1200 painted and installed. so i would say it's a good deal considering the price of everything going up.. good luck with it..
  14. in CA YES they can..if you have outer than factory tint on your front windows even if they are down you can be ticketed..it falls under a road side safety check. if they want they can check your tires for thread depth, all lights are working properly, and conform with D.O.T regulations, seat belts, and so on.. if they really want to legally bust your chops, they can make you pop your hood and do a emissions visual test right there. basically they can do what ever they like as long as it comply s with CA. motor vehicle codes.. you argue with them, then it gives them grounds to impound your vehicle for inspection because you "MAY" be hiding something.. it sucks but that's CA law http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/vc/vc.htm
  15. i admit i take mine to the dealer for services. i supply the M1 and $39 and they do the rest. reason being that it is more convenient for me. not having to crawl around on a gravel/dirt parking area, and getting older it's getting tough on my knees and shoulder joints. i'm in and out in less than 1 hr, and i get free coffee and doughnuts while i wait....
  16. you can order here, http://shop.saeparts.com/main.sc;jsessionid=BD5AEF2800C8012DAFFD82FB9CE6D035.qscstrfrnt02
  17. :withstupid: and a Blue one too.. Mommy and Daddy should take the keys back until JR learns some respect ..
  18. you will not want to put a ton on the truck..1/2 ton will be the max. i would check the place where you getting the rock from, and see if they deliver. would be worth the extra money and not risk damaging your truck.. good luck
  19. #8 DON'T TRUST THAT IT'S IT'S ONLY A FART...
  20. i can get a extra 1.5-1.7 more mpg just by turning off my ac. i don't know how it is where you are, but at 11am it's already 100*+ here so i'll take the mpg hit to keep from cooking...
  21. what size tires are you running on the front, and rear?
