    Quick question. Key goes into door but won't turn to unlock it. Haven't got a chance to look at it yet. Easy fix?

    I saw the glass but wanted to know if anyone had done it, and what they used to adhere the new glass.

    For $5 I'd just stick it on there with some good glue/epoxy

    You can get the glass only and stick it on with a good 2-part epoxy. Don't press too hard and break the new one when installing it! It might be easier if you remove the whole assembly and let it sit glass-down to let the epoxy harden, that way it won't run down and drip out the bottom.

    For anyone who's replaced their clutch, did you need a guide tool to keep the clutch centered on the pilot bearing? I've seen threads talking about doing it without mentioning one and a video that uses one. Confused. :annoyed:

    Yes one should be used otherwise it is a super tough job to get aligned, basically a huge waste of time without the tool.

    Thanks - first timer :anonymous:

    Anyone recommend lce kits? I'm going to be ordering headers and figured it'd save money on shipping if I bought one from them...

    Any recommendations? Truck's not going to make more than 200hp afaik and it seems most guys are running superchargers using their stock clutches until they need to be replaced if not replacing them with another stock clutch kit. 33's occasional offroading until I start getting more vacation time in the summers and holidays...

    I'm just about to buy the Marlin Crawler clutch kit. I'm gonna be in there anyway while swapping motors so why not I guess.

    Street clutch kit or the marlin kit with the heavier duty pressure plate would be best

    So you're saying I should save money. Can't argue with that. Any comments on the heavy flywheel for helping crawling / freeway cruising?
