    Grinding sound when turning hard left/right

    Well the first question would be, is it a 4WD truck? Those model years don;t have a 2HI option, do they? Isn't it A4WD all the time with the option to shift to 4HI or 4Lo? If so, I would check the inflation and condition of your tires. SOunds like maybe the A4WD is trying to kick in...

    Total Mileage

    I don't see why you couldn't get tremendous mileage out of today's modern vehicles WITH PROPER MAINTENANCE. :) 200K should be no problem. Heck, I got that out of my 96 DODGE Grand Caravan! (And it is still on the road!) 75K is nothing really provided the truck has been taken care of and the...

    Air Conditioner.

    Are you asking me that?? (You got a question mark there...) Or are you telling me that your front AC only blows cold when your rear AC is on?

    Air Conditioner.

    Manual have knobs that control temp & fan speed. The auto controls have buttons. :) Here's the manual ones. Here's the auto The knobs on the center console control the rear air. The auto HVAC controls are below the radio. :)

    Air Conditioner.

    What do you mean "not working consistently"? Does it intermittently blow cold air? If so, check your R143A level & pressure. Does the compressor only kick on intermittently? Check the connections or replace the compressor. Although low refrigerant can cause it to do the same thing...

    My 97 E.B.

    Nice! :D Did you do all of that yourself? Too bad you really cannot see those headlights through the grill guard...I like the blacked out look. :cool:

    Problem with 4H and 4l

    Yeah, I'm putting my money (only .02 mind you ;) ) on the switch. :)

    Problem with 4H and 4l

    Sometimes those switches need to be cleaned. You can pull the switch and clean the contacts to see if that could be the culprit. Does your truck send power to the front wheels in A4WD like it should?

    Why my 03 sucks...too!

    code 1780 Transmission problem

    Is the OD light on the shifter stalk working? Those wires inside have been known to chafe.

    Royal Purple ATF

    Just make sure it meets Mercon specs. I wouldn't worry about using synthetic. Transmissions aren't like engines. In fact, the snythetic may help extend the life of the tranny. :)

    crome tip

    Paint the pipe black then! :) That's what I do to all my trucks. I don't know why I started doing it... :p but all my trucks get the visible pipe painted flat black. (I use heat resistant paint) Guess it makes the chrome tip stand out more... :rolleyes:

    Body Side Cladding

    However... That body side cladding is already painted. You will not be able to use the method I did. You'll have to see a body or paint shop to help ya out. I'd probably say in the $400-600 range. Lotsa masking to do...

    22's

    What build did you get? A, B, C or later?? Early 03s have a problem with the steering rack. It is a little unknown problem that dealers won't readily share with you. If you are going over loose gravel the steering wheel wobbles and jumps. This shows a loose & problematic rack. Putting...

    04 headlights

    Pull the light out from the INSIDE corner. Then pull straight out. It takes a little more than lossening that "vertical' adjustment bolt. It actually is a bolt that secures the light from behind and really does nothing to "adjust" the aim of the light. Check those lights you got. There is...
