then ill try the vacume sensor. if anyone has rescued their computer/motor from limp mode let me no how u did it. thanx

hey guys. just an update on everything i havent done. lol i wish i had more to show u guys but its been tough lately. ive had to get parts after payday every week (this week it was a tierod) still havent been able to swap my head or anything. i did get my exhaust fixed tho. and i have everything to static drop my ride but i been waitn for snow and it hasnt came. and iv been brainstorming on a center console that i can mount my 12 into but iv had all these ideas that i just forget about cause my funding, time, ect. i hate to be one of those guys whos project goes nowhere and im hoping this spring will be a turning point if not sooner. when i get my taxes i should be able to do alil somthin to the ole b.

hey fellas quick question. i just replaced a tie rod and my alignment has been off since b4 that. my ? is my right front tire is wearing on the inside. that means i should tow the wheel back in some right?

There's alot that could be causing your tire to wear on the inside like you'r describing but bad toe being the most likely. Negative camber is the next thing that would eat the inside of the tire away, followed by old worn out bushings and balljoints. I've even seen a case where a bad wheel bearing was the cause.
It's best to try to replace each part that has any type of play then take it in and have it aligned. To get by for now, until you can get everything replaced and tight again, you could google how to do an alignment yourself, to get it close.

ive replaced a couple ball joints because when i went to get it aligned the mechanic pointed out the bad ones. he asked if i wanted to replace them first and then bring the truck back no charge. i went that route and havent aligned it yet due to lack of funds. i did use two loonng pvc pipes one time on the other b and measured how far apart ends were and it worked awsome for doing it without a machine. i had no wear within 6 months till i wrecked her. i dont have the pipes anymore tho.

so im being told if im wearing on the inside of my tire that i need to tow it out. i thought it was the other way around but i guess its because the camber is set a few degrees neg so it makes sense now. i dont have the pipes i used but ill measuer treadline to treadline front and back. i should get it close. im rolling out to kansas to see my sister whos in the army and then to indiana where i have more family. proly 2000 miles all together. leavin on friday. dont worry im not takin the ole b. shes not road trip ready. just wanna have it done b4 i leave so i can relax when i get back.

It IS the other way around!
You need to "toe" it in to fix it.

thats what i thought!! it makes sense the inside of the tire would skate if it was towed out causeing inner wear. i dont know why im being told otherwise. i guess ill see when i measure. i was a little too lazy after work yesterday

its always somthin!!! way to start the new year off with a bang!! my drunk used to be friend slamed into my driverside right rear behind the back tire. and i mean Slammed into it on fuckin purpose. took care of him but now i gotta figure out how ima get this thing inspection worthy. i got the damage dented back out but u can still see the creases and its ugly. plus i need a windsheild, both of mine r cracked and i need a right front tire. alil more exhaust work and so on. my inspection just died and this is my daily. im pissed. might be lookin for a new bed soon. preferably one that halfway matches my paint.

heres the damage. is this bed worth saving? im so pissed cause i havent even had this truck 6 months yet and its one fucking thing after another. someones always runnin into my shit. my trucks are fucking drunk idiot magnets. (dont get me wrong i get smashed but i cant ever get anything done because im always fixing shit wether i get run into or my dizzy flies apart. and i busted my ribs up on newyears when i got drunk and fell off a balcony and cant hardly work on it. (atleast i didnt fuck someones ride up with my drunkeness). not to mention all the shit i have to do to get it inspected and now this!!!
