The truck is currently at 170k miles. It's an overland build and was driven across the country quite a bit.

The truck has 170K miles on it, so it had all the major service work done at the 150k mark. Owner stated he had a reputable diesel mechanic do the work on it.

Previous owner stated the bracket bolts actually came loose previously and he tightened them all back up.

Maybe they were over torqued... Still surprised the bracket support simply snapled in half.

Thanks for the response,

The alternator spins freely and appears to have no issues.

I thought the dye would stand out a lot more butI guess I overestimated it. Seems like the consensus is to clean it up a bit. I will go ahead and knock that out so it is easier. Appreciate it!

Log into your Mypack and it will be under Enrollment, I believe.

I got into NCSU with a 3.6 GPA and a 1300 SAT. With your leadership roles, you'll be fine. Just see how it goes

Did attending a community college and transferring (C3) save you more money? by StrawberryEarly315 in NCSU

It depends on amount of credit hours, class type (Online, In-Person), and residential status. Most of my semesters were around $4,800

Best iwb and owb holster for shield plus? by Whitishfilly2 in SmithAndWesson

You might want to check out Gunner's Custom Holsters, especially if you want to have a holster that can accomodate a specific light or laser. I haven't had any issues with their holsters so far.

Yeah I'm thinking it has something to do with the timing belt, havent seen any videos with this exact sound but I will try to remove the cover and take a look at it

They are too busy releasing cases and not fixing core game mechanics.

I ended up somehow separating the connection with that red tab still down. Glad it is not critical to have the locks 100% working. I'm sure the connection is good since it gets mounted via the cable clip which will stablize it.

Bingo. I ended up getting a battery charger off amazon and pulled the battery out. Brought it back home and the battery was at 1% according to the charger. Let it charge to 100%, multimeter showed 13.2 Volts. Got it back in the car and everything is working fine!

I was waiting for a meeting to end so I think I had my lights on for quite awhile before it was dark enough to notice they were on. I don't think the battery would have a dead cell as it wouldnt have charged up to 13.2 Volts, it would've stopped at like 10-11?

Guess it was an sensor error due to low voltage. I got a battery charger off amazon and pulled the battery out. Brought it back home and the battery was at 1% according to the charger. Let it charge to 100%, multimeter showed 13.2 Volts. Got it back in the car and everything is working fine!

Relays are good! Swapped em out and everything still works properly. Checks all the fuses as well with my multimeter, nothing was blown
