No noisy lifters.

News Flash Update !!!!!!!! The problem's solved. I had a severely broken dash and had it replace with an O/E in near perfect condition. I had it put in and somewhere along that line the lights are now out. They still work mind you, but the problem is solved. Thanks.

Hope this wasn't in reference to my last post. I'll explain if it is. A buddy of mine suggested that to me.

That too was recommended !

Funny thing is that it doesn't happen all the time that I've noticed.

That's what I'm thinking too. As the story goes a farmer bought the truck new, then the folks I got it from wasn't known for maintaining a vehicle regularly.

Just watched my oil pressure gauge today. At idle it's at 40psi ( according to the gauge ). Drops to 20psi running at 65mph. Any suggestions as to the issues ? Btw, it comes back up after returned to idle.

I may try that. Like i said. The horn doesn't even click, and the cruise control light on the button comes on, but cruise doesn't kick on.

Closest place I can think that " might " have a wire harness is Phillips in Bokchito, Ok. and 95 miles away from you. Just saying , call first.

My new rig. 1/2 ton 1500 SLT Laramie. Dropped 3" in the front & rear. Sitting on 15s currently. Gonna be correcting that soon.

My horn doesn't work, nor does my cruise control. The light for the cruise comes on, but doesn't take hold or work. The horn? Who knows,,,,,,. It doesn't click make any kid of noise whatsoever. Any clues like connection ring in the column I should maybe look at ,,,,, ?

I,,,,,,, think it's got more to do with the ability to carry more weight, but I'm not certain.

Okay , I've looked at many different trucks. I've had the opportunity in an auction to buy a 1999 Ford F-450. I guess the thing that raised my brow the highest is the wheelbase. I searched the internet to no avail, so I thought I'd bring it here. Why does the rear axle sit so close to the end of...

I get it. But there's no pull to either side when I apply the brakes. So that's not an issue for me.
