    Steering/Front end issue has me puzzled on my '93 F250 4x4

    Hey guys, I'm seeking some OB wisdom on an issue I'm having with my '93.

    I'm in the process of installing my Optishift transmission controller. I already have the hot, ground, and TPS wires run for it. Now I need to run the harness for the solenoid plug on the passenger side of the transmission and the harness for the MLPS on the driver's side of then trans. Any...

    Help diagnose my ignition/starter issue

    You can see what it does in the video when I try to start my truck. Goes clank clank clank a few times then starts. If I turn the key on then go under the hood and run a jumper wire from the batter to the starter relay, it fires right up with no clanks first. Is this a problem with my...

    Banks Downpipes

    Just thought I'd pass this along for anyone who may be looking for a downpipe. I called Banks today to see if they still had any downpipes for IDI factory turbos. They guy said yeah I think we still have a few of those laying around. $125 shipped to my door.
