P99 is an awesome gun. First gun i ever bought. Fit my hand like a glove when i found the right back handgrip thing. Still my favorite to shoot too.

For the record theres weatherstripping around the endgate and midgate. No seals on any of the panels. Ive had it all out. Everythings designed to chanell water into the body drains. With the midgate closed you can hose it out but it would end up rusting/rotting worse then a normal pickup. One of...

Read it was a good idea to change the o2 sensor on my truck as 100k or so. So i picked one up from rockauto. The connector was different but it look like all o2s are basically te same and physically the sensor was identicle to the stock one. So i pulled the pins and swapped the connectors. Only...

Ive been lurking on the site over the past year or so learning what i could about my truck and using all the highly informative posts and how-tos Recently starting posting up some questions and finally got around to taking a pic of my truck. So i thought i would post it up here since i never...

The levers are on the actual actuator housing located at the latches. Feel around till you feel a round part the bumps out from the housing about an inch across. On the diagram thats the part that has the x going through it. From there the diagram makes sence. Just feel around till you feel the...

The trucks my daily driver. Ive heard not so good things about aftermarket lockers without going with something on the more pricey side. Picking up a g80 seems like the cheapest route for something that should be able to handle all my daily and modest offroad use. Also didnt want to get into...

Thanks roadie. Im gonna take the whole thing back. This will be the yards third try at getting me a g80... if this doesnt work out ill probably do that. Or buy a locker..

I picked up a g80 the other day. 8.6 3.73 i have the same 8.6 3.73 in an open axle. Problem is the g80 is in rotten shape. Went all through it over the weekend. Nothing is usable except the housing and gears. The hubs are rotted out. The drive shaft yoke. Ebrake assemblies seals bearings etc...

Wow first I've heard any of this. And I was doing gas station service back when the us standardized the 10%. Probably because the closest gas station that doesn't have ethanol according to that site is about 100 miles from RI. He'll I've been hoping we would adopt the 85% that most nonpetroleum...

Where did you find non ethanol? I thought everything was 10% now. Also.. why would you want non-ethanol? Doesn't it help keep everything clean?

Ok well thats good news. Makes sence too cause its supposed to be an 8.6. I got it from a local auto salvage place. They didnt have one bit they got it from somewhere else. No clue about what it came out of. It doesnt have any sensors in it so i doubt its 06 or newer. Been googling but it...

Heres a pic of the numbers

So I'm trying to get a g80 for my truck. Its been one hell of a headache. So I've got the third axle now (first two weren't g80s) Its rusted to shit. But I deal cause its actually a g80. As I start sandblasting I uncover an 86 on the pumpkin cover. Is this axle really from 1986? Is there even a...

On a side note. Yay your the first one i helped on this forum! I can say that cause im sure thats your problem. Would be awkward if im wrong...

Had the same issue when i lifted my truck. Turns out i put something together in the strut 180 degrees out. Had to pull the strut again, rotate the dogleg 180 and remount the strut. Fixed the problem. It looks symetrical and like it wouldnt matter. But it does matter.
