    Replaced alternator now crank no start. 06 4.7 limited

    Agreed, just not wanting to remove and eventually reinstall somebody else's electrical work to diagnose my suspicion. And I struggle with why would it have communicated normally until battery light came on. Or did it happen when battery and alternator where reconnected. I just don't see any...

    Getting SPC's UCA setup aligned

    Firestone ugg As an aside, Unless you have a connection at Firestone they have stated to me they'll no longer align modified vehicles, and have passively hasseled me every time I bring them one. "The technician's job is to get it in the green while using oem parts" They state. Won't even test...

    Vibration when towing at highway speed

    If it's the v8, have your front axles checked. Similar rpm as a tire vibe. Typically under acceleration. Especially going up hill. You did all your Diagnostics already.

    2006 - V8 4wd won't start - won't jump

    One Caveat Everyone is giving great advice, however one thing that hasn't been mentioned. this is absolutely a necessity, a FULL battery charge must be completed by a known good charging source BEFORE doing a battery voltage/current check of any kind. Also if while running at idle with a known...
