Re:just thought I'd say hi

I've got about 150,000 km (93,000 miles) on it right now .......had 117,000km (73,000 miles) when I picked it up 6 months ago .......

hasn't given me any problems yet, towed home a 7000 lb 52 chev 2 ton from aberdeen for my dad about 5 days after i bought it it worked great no power problems .......



you can check out my stereo install here, if your into that kind of thing

how do I go about checking my pump, just get the fuel pressure from the lift pump to the injector pump checked or do I need a flow test too ......

Welcome from another '99 owner. ;D<br>That was the best year, before D/C started cost-cutting all the goodies.

ya got ta love that black molding that goes all the way around our 99' even the tailgate pc.

Yep on my wifes 02 we got, I put the black molding and the tail gate pc for it looks like a finshed truck now

Cost was around $250.00 + but was worth it for the look.
