The p.o.s dodge
well kinda new here but have always snooped around to see what everyones doing on here. Well all you guys dont know me on here. but my name is drew, I live in florida, born and raised here
I have owned more dodges than anything else in my life. ive had approx. 23 trucks and im ony 21. i grow up around cars because my father is one hell of a gearhead and he taught me a alot in my years... Im going to school now for my certifercate in diesels and normal ase crap.
anyways enough about me and more about my p.o.s dodge that has giving me more problems than all my trucks put together...
transmission, rear end which still needs to be overhauled, front end leaks, multiple sensors, and of course what i never wanted to happen, head gasket
well heres the story... it all started when you get a little excited and do stupid sh*t and let my mind think my truck can float...
so i drained everything, water in tranny, motor, intake, you name it.
put new oil in, started it up and then i had a dodge powered smoke machine
after everything said and down, drove it down the road and tranny goes out. unfortunatly i cant find the picture of the tranny i put it but everyone should kno what a 46re looks like because have been rebuilt or going to need it rebuilt sooner or later.
and for the head gasket.... its not fun in this truck
got to love 360's
oh, well that dosent look to healthy
yum, chocolate milk shake... this aint good
nope, not at all

soooo.... lets grab a wrench and see what the damage is
6 hours later, down to the block. lets just say i should have just pulled it out before i got started...
one hell of a leak huh?
cant beleive the heads were not even ticking before i pulled it apart
so, these are going bye bye, hp 1.7's coming soon
and the heads are cracked :wall:
so while im waiting on heads?!?!?:dunno: got some extra engine paint so everything looks pretty again
so, thats where im at with my truck right now....
but for the hell of it, here is my truck, 98 dodge 1500 4x4 3" body, 3" suspension, 35"s, nothing special.
inside
i need to do something with the back seat because it just stands out from the camo... might just cover it with the same material i used for the headliner.
hope you goes enjoy, i'll keep updated if anyones interested..
