Too bad the 42#'s didn't burn in the fire...

Give the VIN and some peeps might be able to provide some info for ya.

Good luck with the new truck. You probably got it for cheap. 8)

Another commom cause of engine fires is rubber transmission lines blowing off when the metal ones are cut and not flared. Good idea to keep a fire extinguisher in the truck at all times just in case...

also need 4 wheel centers for the stock wheels .

That's too bad to hear. A member on here couldn't get his off when he bought aftermarket rims so he took a drill and drilled them all off :-? ...

Welcome to the BB BTW ! Hope that you enjoy your stay and get your truck back on the road soon. Perhaps we will meet at the next Pennysltucky gathering.
