so yesterday the truck dies on me. Kept blowing the Maxi fuse for the fuel pump relay. Tracked that down to a dead short. Tonight take her out for a spin and serpentine belt starts squealing. Check it and it's in need of replacement.

Bad things come in 3's.........1 more to go.

when I got it back from the tranny shop she was throwing up a smoke screen. lol That was because the back 2 oilpan bolts were loose and the PCV valve had been disconnected

If you keep fixing stuff, you'll be out of a job...:icon_razz:..seriously. i hope the breakage stops. but it does sound like normal wear/tear on some of the items. You'll be able to rebuild the truck in your sleep pretty soon.

lol I already can! You don't know my history with this truck. Had it for 11yrs, was originally a 4.9 with an E4OD. Built an 86 3O2 HO and put that and a C6 in her

word of advice never use solid motor mounts unless you want to vibrate all nuts and bolts loose! lol

[Northern Supercrew]

there was no rubber in the mounts???? Was that on purpose....LOL

[taisa899]

that's why they're called solid mounts! Problem with them is that the motor vibrations that rubber mounts absorb is transfered to the frame

[Northern Supercrew]

I never heard of solid ones.......the truck come like that?

[taisa899]

I never heard of solid ones.......the truck come like that? nope. Something I decided to do when I was building the truck
