    I replaced the bed lights with some new ones that aren’t yellowed and a tad brighter. Truck is very dirty, pollen is bad right now

    They are on! Currently waiting for a set of MOOG sway bar links (about a week more until they arrive). And slowly I’ll start replacing the body mounts, and power steering rack bushings with the E.S. poly bushings too

    How ya liking the scan gauge Nik? Thinking about picking one up soon or an Ultra gauge. Looking to be able to monitor the trans temp.

    With the scan gauge II I don’t have the ability to monitor trans temp on my second gen :-/ I’ve thought about switching to the ultra gauge merely for that purpose. I mainly monitor my voltage, coolant temp in case of a gauge malfunction, rpm, and intake air temp. I also like that I can pull codes on the fly, only works with check engine though. For an abs light I have to use our expensive scan tools at work. I’ve seen that you can modify the scan gauge to accept trans temp but I tried once and it didn’t work.

    Edit: I may attempt it again this weekend and see if I can figure it out

    I was checking on their website and the manual did say some models it could monitor trans temp but did not specify which ones. May be worth contacting them. I want it while towing mainly.

    That’s a good reason to monitor it, plus with our summer heat, I’d like to monitor the temp while driving in traffic to determine if I would add the trans cooler kit or not. If I can’t figure it out myself I’m going to shoot them an email
