New Part
Well new PARTS lol
Well my company is back to working full time!!! Finally after 8 months of cut hours. I have also picked up some high paying side jobs, computer repair, building some cabinets, and a kitchen refinish.
So I figured i better buy some parts while the money is around.

Exhaust system - if any money is left - (NO MONEY LEFT LMAO)

Total investment so far just under $700 (yea it adds up fast)
All the work I did myself!

If anyone needs a right up on any of these items SPEAK UP (as you may have seen from my wood grain bezel to silver I make them as detailed as possible, with lots of pics!)

what is your steering issue? My neighbor said he was having a "choppy" turning steering wheel, so I crawled around for a few minutes and found his intermediate shafts joints were rusted real bad. I hit them with some penetrating oil to loosen up the crud, took a small wire brush to them,and lubed them up with some white lithium grease. steers like a new truck.

Hmm lets see. symptoms include but not limited to lots of play in steering, ticking feeling while turning, wheels feel like they are tracking which ever way they want. Front end feels like its gonna fall off. Everything has been replaced on the front end besides the rack and intermediate shaft. If it is not one of those I might take my rifle and pump some rounds into the engine block.

All the parts are finally in my truck!!! Truck feels brand new and with all the mods its really runs great! Better performance overall, better throttle response, better gas millage, sounds better than ever before! I couldn't be happier with all the mods for the cheap price tag I ended up for everything!
