Little fun in the snow and the truck was running like crap + got some main done
 
Well after this the truck has been running like garbage. Very rich(9.0), transmission was shifting funny, it was idling high.

I was pretty worried about the tranny.

Long story short, it was the throttle positioning sensor. Not a big deal at all.

I also got some new shocks on finally, fixed my rear U joint, and replaced the bad front drivers side axle shaft.

I still have a leaky air bag and something is making some noise still in the front suspension but thankfully I've finally got the other work done.

Kind of a lame thread but just felt good about the fixes.

TPS caused you to run rich throughout the spectrum or only above part throttle?

mostly at idle and low throttle. It went up to 10-11 at full throttle

no, i figured you're lifted that much you can just reach in there and hold the shock in place and take a picture :lol:
