mini spool is $45

gears are $150, brand new. but the new owner of the axle housing might take them in a package deal.

[twescott89]

i would defiantly be down for a meet with you guys if you willing to let me tag along and the trucks done at least enough to hit the trail lol. but i got some questions for you guys i just put the newer 4.0 in the truck and got cab all on it fires and runs like a champ never heard it run so good but my issue is that my gauge cluster lights don't work all bulbs are good to and if i turn my low beams on my high beam indicator comes on but goes of with high beams wtf??? also my reverse lights are on even with the truck in neutral or 1st gear doesn't matter there constantly on when trucks ruining just i also have all the engine ecu and dash wireing from donor vehicle some of my issues the major ones i still got figure out the gay ass electronic 4wd any ideas are greatly appreciated thanks

 

[stiluv]

Get a wiring diagram for the donor truck and yours and start chasing wires. I had a few problems like that when I did the v8 swap. The plugs may look the same but it only takes one wrong wire to mix shit up

 

[stiluv]

Did you switch out the original body wire harness. If so put it back and wire it to the motor harness

maybe my truck will be thawed out by then! as of now I cant go anywhere. coolant is frozen solid and so is the wiper fluid... the high for the next 6 days is going to be like 24-26 degrees. getting down below 0 at night. think my truck is ****ed for a while... I gotta figure out how to unfreeze that shit without a garage or something since I dont have one.

electric engine blanket

 

[ben10]

dude the nearest place to plug something in is WELL over 100 yards away... not to mention to get something like that would require about an hour and a half drive to soonora. cant drive my truck like this.

Gas weed burner. Just shoot flames at the engine.
