I recently bought upper ball joints from NAPA, the Mevotech TTX for my 98 1500 and my 95 3500. They had Green boots on them, could be a Country thing? They looked to be good quality.

That would be a real "Sleeper":)

I have a Centrifuge on one of my 6.5's as Will said the higher the psi the better they should work. Mine has about 55 psi cold, maybe 25 hot. I clean it out when I change oil. I get a lot of sludge out of it, IDK if it is what the filter missed or if it got it pre filter?

I was the youngest of 10 Les, probably saw more than I needed.

I remember foot pedal bendix/Sol. operation for the starter, as well as a foot operated washer fluid pump. Made for a good Whiskey dispenser, so I am told. Really, never did it myself.

A good plan, a bit to far for me though.

Not unusual to buy the next years vehicle in the previous year.

They're just f**king with you, why? Because they can. :)

It's just us Old farts Les, we need light.:)

I was changing tire sizes and fooled around with this site, I made probably 5 pin changes before the gps was dead on. Calibrate TBI Speedometer VSSB DRAC | TBI (harristuning.com)

I'm just going with rough estimates, my 1 ton has 4.10 rears and at 60 mph it is about 2150-2200 rpm, 4 other trucks with 3.73 rears are 1800 rpm at 60 mph. Could be a difference in vehicles. My 1 ton is the only one that had gps on it after I did a tire size change to get the speedo correct.

3.73's will drop 60 mph rpm's by about 400 from the 4.10's Get some 20" rims with the low sidewalls, should help mpg and look cool too, in the "Hood" anyway. :D Oh and a set of air bags for the front with a storage tank and a dump valve. Then you can fit right in :)

I ran air shocks which made the ride much better. My trouble was with a 2000 lb deck on, if the air leaked out I was on the over rides. It was very rough until I had one or 2 bales on. The factory leafs are 2750 per side, The other options were 3000 and 3250. They were not as expensive as I...

My 95 1 ton always had 235/85 r16 tires. With the bale deck on (1ton)+ it was rough with the original sacked out leaf springs. I put the heaviest leaf set in I could get. It is about an inch above the over loads, it is my nicest riding vehicle now. In winter I run singles on the back, 265/75...

I hope everything was OK, what gets me following the tracking is it went to the West Coast before heading East.

What have we done and where are we going? A good friend and I discuss this every once in a while. My oldest brother would buy 50's cars and drive them tell they quit, usually paid $25 for them. 1957 Chevy. couple 55-56 Buicks 57 Station wagon. The poor Bastard didn't know what he had, But hey...

Looks to be in nice condition, go for it. For the broken screw hole there are the Rattle Stops, if no longer available they can be made.

Can't see why rubbing alcohol wouldn't work. The gas line antifreeze I've used was for gas. I have the stuff for diesel but am not sure on it's formulation, there is some for anti gelling and some for melting gelled fuel.

Methyl Hydrate is gas line antifreeze, you may have to go on line and get some from a northern state or Canada. :D It is pure alcohol, any moonshiners there?

I've just read this thread, I believe HD trucks used a different IP between 94 and 95. Some tried to use the 94 IP as it was a higher output IP. They don't mix. Another thing I would try, it won't hurt anything, put an ounce of gas line antifreeze in the oil. It will unstick a lifter. I've done...
