What I did to my T4R today

I re-installed my trailer hitch after removing it and cleaning off any surface rust. Then a few coats of a Zinc based primer and then a few coats of some flat black. Very happy with results! Just got this truck and I have only had to rotate tires, replace radiator cap, a sway bar link and change the oil. Can't wait for many good memories in my 1st 3RD Gen T4R!

Fraud or not, I've got a set of brand new SPC UCAs sitting on my coffee table right now, and they shipped them quickly.

Just hope you have no issues because I contact SPC prior to joining the group buy and he is not a registered vendor of the product and neither is the source he gets them from so they have no warranty.

I don't want to bad mouth, just want people to be aware. Luckily they make an awesome product so you shouldn't have issues.
 
neutral safety switch 99 limited

Took off and cleaned yesterday...reinstalled today..cranks up like a charm, all the PRNDL lights are bright as day. Cleaning the thing was the answer.
 
gauge protector

I was taking a part my driver side assembly around steering column and when I was taking out the clear plastic gauge protector on the dash, I ended up cracking it. I, for the life of me, cannot find the part online.

Does anyone know the piece I'm talking about and if so, anyone know the part number or a link to get it? It's for a 1998 T4R SR5.

Thanks!

and a pic of the page (you need Item #1, I'm guessing)

Yesterday battery light came on and was only charging 12v. Being late had no choice so ran to Pep Boys and snagged a rebuilt alternator since it’s all they had. Installed and ran 200 miles loaded this trailer and back tonight before midnight. Tomorrow 10k Amsoil and filter change, rotate tires and try to find some new lug nuts. Noticed some of mine pretty rusted. Any leaded besides autozone at $5 per.

Took it to the biennial state (NJ) inspection,passed with no problem. It appears they don’t even bother pressure testing the gas cap anymore,just purely connect to the OBD2 port and make sure all readiness tests are complete and free of malfunction codes

That does suck, indeed.

If you could, put up a pic of the broken surface of the bolt. The surface on the stub remaining in the spindle looks to be weathered and discolored, meaning it may have actually failed when it was assembled last.

Not that it matters. You will still have the pleasure of extracting the broken stub.
