Re: Turn signal works; doesn't work

bypassing switch should be pretty easy since all you have to do is take any hot 12v wire and touch it to where the left turn wire is. should start flashing normally and then you can at least determine that it is something in the switch then start taking it apart. good luck

Re: Rims and tires- stock truck but want to drive

check the expedition portal forums and some others for guys with the m101a1 trailers. most of those guys ditch the stock axles and tires really fast. would be a good source of rims, and for tires there are lots of threads on tires, garbee has a good page with them as well. Other option is to just ge...

Re: ford ranger carb.

the dual carbs aren't actually that difficult to setup. linkages are made for them so you just bolt up and tune them. you'll still need an adapter to get a dual carb on your manifold though it's not something that is going to bolt right on. Company called Manifolds by Moose makes a combo dual carb i...

Re: ford ranger carb.

i don't know if it's the carb technology or just the fact that the more barrels you have the better atomization you have due to the smaller jets. Spread bore 4bbl's do really well because of the baby primaries for normal driving and then the big ass secondaries when you need them. With a one barrel ...

Re: ford ranger carb.

that 4runner is capable of almost doubling that fuel economy if you remove all of the emissions crap out of it. All modern cars are knocked down 20% or much much more by their emissions equipment. Put a freeflowing exhaust on there and optimize the computer and you'll be amazed what the engines can ...

Re: Turn signal works; doesn't work

sounds like a bad switch from the lever. try bypassing the turn signal switch. If it works fine, then you have a bad switch. If it doesn't, use a test light and try that coming off of the switch and see if that works. If so, then you need to start chasing grounds.

Re: List Your Parts Finds/Bargains HERE

Not a stock part, but I have been eyeing these things for a few years now and somehow today they were 75% off with $9 in shipping. Great idea for you guys that have converted to 12v and are thinking about doing a dual electrical system. http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Sea-Systems-Automatic-Charging/dp/B0...

Re: 351W Mods

I figured you'd have clearance problems. What's different on them? They should bolt right up to the heads no problem.

Re: 351W Mods

Jim,
they'll bolt right in, but they probably won't match up to the rest of the exhaust system. Will bolt right onto the heads though.
