weee piggy backing on the towing truck




Home.



exhaust pics since we didnt get a good one for our tread.

 

In a week you can post pics of your new alternator

PS- you STILL haven't spent 5 bucks on some satin black spray paint to get rid of that front end overspray?!?! LOL.

 

heres a crappy vid of getting towed.. cam pics n vid..

i didnt get to see how close it got from scrapping.. but it was dam close.. maybe a mm or 2.

i hope i can still make the bbq on the 21 wit the car =/

 

i have black spray paint =p just to lazy to spray hah im thinking of spraying brake cleaner tho.. since i was messing around wit it like 10 mins ago.. n i sprayed the overspray on the engine tray.. it shriveled up the paint and i just scrapped it off =]

 

bro thats a goood tow truck driver she actually got it up. without scartching the bumper.

I always have problems

 

is there a warning sign besides battery light coming on that the alternator would go out? sucks to drive around then it just dies...

 

just imagine if u guys were already lowered...GG haha

 

Lol ive never seen somone take so many pics when they are getting towed! Its like an event

 

Man that stinks. Good thing you were able to get off the freeway safely. Most likely its the alternator. Should be an easy fix.

 

check to see if your distributor is leaking oil. if it is then the oil is contaminating the alternator. Change the distributor O-ring if its leaking.

 

No that would be his PS pump in this case, like everyone else. Even if it didnt leak these alternators were detined for failure being mounted so low. You can alway reverse your alternator if you feel to do so. Instuctions are on lextreme.....

 

i wish i was able to ride.. on the lex when it was getting towed... hehe

well i ordered an alternator today.. tomarrow its coming.. my lowering springs are coming on sat.. hopefully i can get everything done and working by sunday :] HOPEFULLY :[

 

HAHAh LOL!
BTW, hope you get everything fixed!

 

LOL - that was classic

That's a pimp color, need better pics of the detail of the paint.
It sounds like the alternator like everyone else says. Get a heavy duty alternator if you run a lot of electronics.
