My 95 limited had the 90 amp a well. I wonder if the changed it in 96. The alt I pulled off of this junked 2000+ Ram 1500 was the 117 amp if I remember correctly.

I think my 4.0 has a 90 amp. Might see about a 117 amp

Those bushings look like factory floor. It'll buff out

Finally wired up the Pro-Comp 55w lights I got with a promo card from Grand Slam West. Took forever because I hate wiring with a passion. Took my time, and it went well though.

I'll get them aimed tonight and see what I think.

Surprisingly they weren't nearly as bad as I figured they'd be, they were just starting to show cracks in the rubber.

Drove her with the front drive shaft out, (and my 5' flag on her antenna), for the first time in like 6 months I heard no squeaks, creaks, or otherwise. Guess I know what was causing all of them now.

Sealed the small cracks that were letting water in the roof before the storm.

Decided I need 31s.

About to order my exhaust components from Advance. Going with a brand new 2.5" exhaust from the header collector all the way out back.

New exhaust components will be:

2.5" MagnaFlow Metallic Spun cat
2.5" Thrush Weld Muffler
2.5" MagnaFlow Tip

**I'm not set on the Thrush, I just cannot decide which muffler I want just yet. And it's hard to hear an exhaust note from youtube on the computer.

I'm also going to start pricing out my 4.56s gears

Dang I need to change mine I really should do a drain plug, how hard is it?

OT.. possibly figured out my slow starting issue, clogged fuel filter (189k), original one I believe . Will need to pick up one tomorrow.

(did the 3x prime before starting and seemed to fire right up without hesitation.. or would that be pressure regulator?)
