Hey guys sorry for the long delay, went to FL on vacation with the family. Then got into some long weeks of OT at work and wasn't able to do much with my truck.
Anyways, I finally got the Tachometer sensor installed and instantly noticed a big change in my truck. No more hunting, hard shifts and what seems like better throttle response.
Thanks for the advice
Slicknik you hit the problem right on the nose.
As for the bounce, I haven't dealt with relieving the overall cause but I do have a list of upcoming parts that I feel will get her up to par and ultimately eliminate the excessive bounce. I may look into the dual shocks up front, but that might be later down the road (when the wife's not paying too much attention to how much I'm spending on this Ol' gal
)
- New tires (Goodyear Wrangler MT/R 37x12.50 R16.5LT)
- New body mounts (not doing a body lift just need new ones, every once in a while when I hit a speed bump or pothole too fast I can feel the floor pan press up from what I assume is from the now stiffer front leaf)
- New tie rods & ball joints
What do you guys think?
Oh and had to deal with a couple down weeks, due to overheating from a cracked heater core, bad thermostat, bad radiator cap and cracked overfill tank
. As well as both batteries and starter dying (all old and untouched from previous owner)
