Recent oil change with Penzoil

Truck is surprisingly solid for a 24 year old east coast truck, the paint still shines nice however the roof is fading in places and there is a spot of rot on the passenger side rocker. The frame has very minimal scaling and still has factory paint in places like the leaf shackles etc.. I just installed new plugs, wires, cap and rotor, coil and changed the oil again. The truck has sat for some time so I'm flushing whatever (if any) sludge has built up.

There are a few things that need attention which I will be working on until the truck sells such as..

The valve cover gaskets were slightly weeping, I tightened them up and it actually made it worse. I bought new Fel-pro gaskets however I haven't had a full day to take the valve covers off, strip them and repaint them as well as regasket them. I also bought new Fel-pro intake manifold gaskets.. figure if I go through the effort to do the valve covers the right way I may as well do then while I'm in there.

New universals which I have in the box (greaseable) which will be complete this week (both driveshafts) they are quiet however they are aged.

There are three marker lights on the visor that won't illuminate, I will remove the visor and instal all new lights and rewire the setup.

The passenger door speaker produces no sound. I am going to swap the speaker and if it works will continue to replace all the speakers with Sony units.

The master door lock switch is not working however the passenger door switch works. May be a bad contact (doubtful) or I will hunt one down off a parts truck.

The rubber grommet on the strike for the tailgate is mia, another parts truck item.

Carpet could use a shampoo (not dirty, just a little dingy). I may spring for the factory correct floormats however they take two weeks to make.

Trim needs to be rechromed in places or possibly just a dremel buffer with a good compound.

Odds and ends that are associated with a truck that's 24 years old and rides like a tank. 

The truck is for sale locally so the auction can end at any time. Cash only at pickup, must pick the truck up within one week.

25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.

Redonkulous Dodge Charger is ridin' high

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

We're a bit hazy on the styling of this particular donk, which was recently spotted hashing about by HotCarsTV at the Southern Heritage Classic Car show in Memphis. Sporting a dope paint job and some wheels that make a blunt statement about what the driver enjoys, it's a unique take on the popular customizing trend.
The owner may be kiefing it real with the theme on this Dodge Charger, but when your car looks like this, it's easy to weed out from the crowd. Chronic police stops must also make it a pain to drive on a regular basis, though. Even with the big wheels, we bet the driver still finds time to light 'em up. Take a look down below for a brief video of this outrageous mean green machine on the road.

2014 Dodge Dart Blacktop hits the pavement ahead of Detroit

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

Dodge is getting ready to spread the Blacktop-themed love to the smallest member of its lineup. Last year, the automaker offered up Blacktop versions of the Avenger, Challenger, Charger, Durango, Grand Caravan and Journey. And now the Dart, too, gets its dark on for 2014, with the $295 package offered on Dart SXT models equipped with the Rallye Appearance Group. The Dart Blacktop will make its debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week.
As with the other Blacktop special-edition models, the Dart Blacktop gets glossy black accents for a "sporty, sinister look." The blacked-out treatment spreads across the 18-inch wheels to the crosshair grille, grille surround and headlamp bezels. The interior sees a similar treatment, with black and light tungsten or black and ruby red cloth to go with red accent stitching on the instrument panel, center console and seat bolsters.
For the 2014 model year, all Dart SXT and Limited models receive the 2.4-liter MultiAir2 Tigershark engine with 184 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque, and since the Blacktop is based on the SXT, that's the powerplant buyers of this special-edition will get, too. Expect the 2014 Dart Blacktop to hit dealers in the first quarter, and while you're waiting, feel free to read more in the official press release below.
