Cool, I'm a cheap date, so whatever is on draft is good.

Well...I was messing with the Comanche today started cleaning out and wire brushing the grounds and looked at the starter relay and always wondered if those wires are in the right place...
I know about the starter one because earlier I pulled one by mistake and accidentally tapped the power part and almost started the truck...
So I scoured through Google and found out the wires were in the wrong place...
The ground wire was on the ignition place and vice versa...so I pressed all the clips to make a good connection and put them in the correct place and so far the truck is running great we'll see as I drive the truck more and more...

So far I'm feeling that extra oomph it used to have...

Yep...rockauto has the standard icm for $40 right now and $8 for the coil...next day air was sooo cheap $15 I added that option to...
Cruiser mentioned to pick up a starter relay also...so I'm picking one up at the local auto parts store to see if that helps to...

And I do have the ax5 and case...

Picking up my beater from the drive line shop tomorrow. I'm curious how much it's off after the guy said we had to adjust one of your upper control arms 1 inch longer than the other because it just wouldnt "go" got both front and rear diffs rebuilt first time in my life I've ever paid another man to fix something of mine. It doesn't sit easy with me. Worst experience ever besides the fact of getting over charged. Ughhhhh

this apartment living is for the birds. Can't even change my own oil. I used to do motor swaps in my drive way in Kentucky and no one got offended. Here if a drop of oil hits the pavement you get towed. The guy that did my diffs did a good job. New bearings. Seals. Axles only in the rear. Front still has stock axles. Maybe I'll up grade later. I'll have a house with a garage hopefully by next summer. Until then ...
