Do they not use salt on the roads there? That Rango appears to be in REALLY nice shape.....
It's been awhile that's for sure. Nice to see your still here helping people out. Hope you're doing well. Still got the dogs?

I went for the good body over the good drive line lolol. Not much hasn't been replaced.

Doing pretty well. And got another rescue dog...... Pitbull/mastiff mix. She was TINY when we got her... not anymore. She is NOT going to be a little girl...... So, three not. The older two are slowin' down, but, still doin' good, and still with us.

How's life in the great white north?

Truck threw a persistent 0152 code on the ride home from work the other day. "2/1 O2 Sensor Shorted To Voltage". Picked up a couple Denso's and replaced them both this morning. No where near as bad as I thought it was going to be. 45 minutes start to finish. Wish my other repairs went that smoothly.

A couple of weeks ago I hooked the dumpster at the side of the driveway with the mirror and drug it into the side of the door and ripped the mirror off the door. After a false start on replacing the door, the boy and I finally got it back together. The only issue is the power lock solenoid is bad in the donor door, so no power locks until I get time to fix it.

Are those mirrors aftermarket? Don't think I have seen those on a dodge before.

They are OE, but not very common. Finding a replacement mirror was a bit of a pain too. I managed to order the replacement from a salvage yard in Iowa fairly reasonable, but they were running as high as $400 on E-Bay. If I ever see a set at a self-service yard, they're coming home with me for spares.

Not very common? Now there is an understatement.

I find that I use that phrase a lot with this truck - especially when looking for parts for the 8.0L.
