    ALL OF THEM!...Then some more.

    I think I'd be running a bigger radiator if it's gonna be in the back behind the can with no real air flow other then the fans. Id go trophy truck style. Whole width of the bed and dual fans.

    I will check it out sometime tomorrow. If I have nothing to do, I don't think it's my speaker wire directly though. It came off and on but I heard every speaker working and now it won't work

    He's cleaning them up. And putting a halo around it. The previous owner only had the projector and HIDs, plus he painted the inside black.

    That is the same thing they told me. They couldn't get to what they needed to replace so I'd have to pay. A bunch of BS!

    Big radiators are expensive! This radiator is made for 600hp big blocks. Small but very efficient. And the fan will pull over 3000 cfm. Diesels are cool running engines and don't make a lot of heat until towing. Since I won't be doing that, I went small the start with. I will also be running meth so that helps cooling as well.

    I need a pic of a throttlebody where the throttle cable attaches. on a 03-04 5vz 4x4 auto transmission. I'm trying to compare to what I have. Thanks.

    image.jpg

    The reason is because I just read in the Haynes Manual and it says that 03-04 A340f doesn't come with a throttle valve cable. This is how my transmission showed up. I just thought it was removed. I'm just double checking with someone more experienced then me.

    Need to see the rear cams too, but the upside-down cam is a clear indication of someone who doesn't know what they're doing. Also, the big difference side to side is a bit unusual.

    Glad I could help!

    I'm guessing you're not running cruise control Ray? The picture above has cruise.

    I just edited my last post. That's how the motor showed up. I'm believe the cruse control is connected to the top and the tranny connects to the bottom. But I'm unsure with the 3.4.
    Did some 03 models come without cruise control?

    That's interesting how you have 3 places for cables. Now I'm really lost.
