    Spare tire mounting help

    All you have to do is slip the bracket up the cable and slip it through the center of the rim. Then crank the cable back up under the truck and it will lift the spare tire up into the spare tire location.

    Traction Control light blinking off and on

    Nah it was dry, and the first thing i looked for was the ABS flashing, and it never did come on. When I mean flashing/blinking, i mean just that. I dont mean how the traction control light comes on when you actually are sliding in mud, gravel, whatever. sensor going out could be i guess. 236k...

    Which Wax is The Best ??

    Zaino isnt a wax. Its a polymer, therefore it doesnt evaporate from the sun, unlike wax, ie, meguires WAX. You will use 100x more meguires than you will ever use zaino. More expensive? yes, but you get what you pay for.

    Transmission Rebuild Time?

    I've rebuilt auto transmissions before. I've seen high mileage transmissions fail weeks after a fluid flush. I talked to the GM tech's at several dealerships. Their recommendation was not to change the fluid unless it smelled burnt. Well its not burnt. It shifts great, so I am not going to piss...

    Coolant leak, water pump??

    No no i read it, I was just being a smart ass. Seriously though thanks for the tip, I will most likely have to have that done as I don't think I have the interest in buying the tool to do that job ;) Usually i just buy what I don't have and do it. thanks again
