Default i would like some advice

How am I suppose to check the wire conection to the fuel guage sending unit? It sometimes reads right then goes back to goin to empty. And does anyone in Mn know someone who can redo seats? Id love to get a black interior with dodge emblems on the seat... And in preference what is the best lift kit? I would like a 3-4" lift. I been looking through posts again. IS there anyway to get a remote locking+a remote starter?

There was an episode on PowerBlock TV about custom seat fabric in black with red Ram logo. I contacted manuafaturer and they do make them for 2nd gen. Cannot remember who they were, but should be able to find it on PB website. Pretty expesnice and only autorized dists have it.

Remotel locka and start - Best Buy has them, ebay, etc.

Connection for fuel gauge - go to FAY/DIY secton and download service manual. Electrical schematics are all there. Check by the tank first though. Drop tank or lift bed.

Best lift appears to be based on experience. Lots of differnt ones. Someone that has done it will post up ... if they can figure that thread has anything to do with lift...

For lifts how do you use your truck is it a PP (pavement pounder) or? What do you expect to spend on a lift kit? For leather it might be cheaper to go fine a set of leather seats out of a wrecked truck. At one time this comp offered leather replacement covers for our trucks , best bet is to call them and see what they offer.

I installed a Cobra 29 (I think) in my RV. For some of those times and places with no cell coverage and in case of emergency. But seldom use it. Seems more people still run them than I thought! Several threads here on CBs.

Yes for work. Wish I could even get 2 days a month of wheeling in!
