Not too long ago the starter was going in my 95. You know, won't start every 5th try, then 4th, 3rd....Well I finally bought a new starter. NOT CHEAP!! Rusty, greasy, dirty job. Had the crap scared out of me when I found out one of the wires is always hot after the cables touched. Took me all of a 1/2hour to change it. Get up and hit the key, "click,click".... $@#% Again, click, click......@%@#$. Grabbed the channel lock pliers and jumped the solenoid, VROOM! Oh Crud. Went in the garage grabbed a spare one from my Mustang, now its perfect. There goes $80 bucks. I didnt bother returning it as it was old and rusted up anyhow. It just goes to show check the little stuff first. I know I should have known this as well.

Yep got 4 of em on order, they won't ship until the 27th, really wanted nerf bars but they cost like 500$ , to much right now , the steps are only 50 for a pair.

I think the nerf bars will make the truck look lower to the ground. The bully steps seem to be the best way to maintain your height and keep the mean look
