Thanks to Fast4.8, I saw some of the truck I've been reading about for the last few months. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> Maybe I can make the next meeting. Well if anyone is from around Deerpark, maybe we can get together and exchange ideas for the next mods. Thinking about a shift kit. Does anyone know where I could get one installed and for how much. And don't say RPM in pasadena. Had a real bad expierence with my underdrive pulley install. <img border="0" alt="[fight]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_punch.gif" />

Thanks for the info on the shift kit. What happen to yours. Changed your mind? 10-4 on RPM they are shitty. <img border="0" alt="[guns]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" /> They totally messed up my fan clutch installing the underdrive pully. Why they had to remove my fan is the question I kept asking. They should of work on the pulley from underneith. Anyway they striped my fan off the pulley and wanted to charge me for a new waterpump and fan clutch. Before they found out that the pulley on the waterpump is pressed on the waterpump shaft. I argued about the charges and was told to come and pick up my truck all disassembled. I refused and threaten to call the B.B.B. and they started crawfishing. About five days later I got my truck back and was very unhappy. My so called new fan clutch was always engaged, no matter what the temp. was on the engine. So insted of getting ugly with RPM I installed Electric fans. But kept their sticker on my truck. I like the way it looks and it matches my truck color. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

E.T. per, is a good local place. He is very reasonable and a good all around person. He also can get anything you want fast and at a great price. Spend your money with someone from the area so you can return and get what you want, when you want it without having to go to some far away shop and pay more money for the same part cause they have more overhead...(MTI)...lol <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
