Very nice truck. And lowered too. That color is my second favorite. Great purchase!

Mine did that some years ago. Damn ethanol gas killed my fuel pump. Check the fuse too.

I have a 2" front and 4" in the rear lowering kit by X-Metal in the early years of our trucks. It has never been installed. The kit includes, lowering front springs, iron blocks for the rear with U bolts and shocks. If you have an interest, let me know.

At 7000 lbs, it has the same power to ratio as a single cab. Apples and oranges with four wheel drive and automatic. Put the trucks on a road course or top speed and there would be no and I mean no competition.

Wow! it's been a long time for me looking in. I'm glad the site is still here. I do miss the old days and now retired, maybe I'll peek in more often. I see prices are up on our trucks. KBB will not list a price in my area. Not why I bought my truck but holding a value is good to know. When...

Tony's lines fixed my leak. The steering is a little heavier but not a problem. I also have his oil cooler lines and have been leak free since I installed them.

fixed my problem 10 years ago.

Ga. still here.

I purchased Tony's. Never had a problems since.
