If you will click on my profile and send me an eMail with your address included (this site does not allow you to post eMail addresses) I will reply directly to you with an MS Word document of an excellent how to for the 94-97 trucks that I got from a fellow member of another site I frequent. Please include the site you saw this on and what information you want - I have a bit of a library and have been sending information out to folks who ask for it on a few forums.

Hey Dave, I can not send you a email from your profile because I am new here and I need to have 25 post before I can. If you send me one from my profile I can reply.

Luke, I appreciate your concern but this is not a problem for me. If it gets to be too much I will simply stop. I can post a link to Carpentractor's article (I ran across his new web site a week or so ago) but I have added some information of my own from when I did mine. Actually I rather enjoy being of a little help now and then.

oldman and shendoa you should have the attachments in you eMail.

Fourstroke, cangim and stangslt1 if you will send me an eMail by clicking on my profile I will reply with the attachments. Please do let me know what information you want and what site you saw this on - I have a bit of a library and have sent things out to several follks on several sites.

This site does not allow posting eMails in the threads or viewing eMail addresses. I cannot send an attachment through the site so you will need to eMail me and I will reply.
