I just need an extra 50 amps but might drop some money for 0 AWG wiring. Local guy rebuilds alternators, my buddy said he does it cheap and reliably.

I just figured out how to multi-quote on the app!
Gonna go buy a new air filter and clean my muddy engine up a bit.

Have you tried just removing your front end? Or getting a pack of huskeys to pull you until it gets colder.

Hey guys my steering wheel is making a grinding sound when I crank it a bit in 1st gear. It's not the normal power steering grind sound either, I think its coming from the steering wheel. Got any clues or tips? I'm gonna check my Power steering Fluid now.

Never mind false alarm Lol. I unplugged it and its suppose to be like that. But in that picture, I grabbed some of that gunk, and it smelt like straight up coolant.
so its probably most definitely the water pump...?

When I bring my truck to a shop this weekend to have them look at it, I'll hand them a list of problems that they need to inspect Lol. Just another terrific reason for a 5.0
