Frankenstein T-5 Waggin' Chronicle (vast doesnt do it)

Hook a test light in series with a battery terminal.

The light will be on if u have a current draw.

Pull a fuse, and replace it. Keep trying this with different fuses, until the light goes off.

When it does, look within that circuit for the draw.

Good idea. Gotta get the battery charged up, first. I hope it didn't kill it entirely.

of course make sure doors are closed and clock is disconnected, radio too.

My buddy had the same problem and i had him to check for any blown bulb.. Might sound stupid but those blown bulbs will still pull current lke they are runing all the time. The lill filament in the middle was still touchin. He replaced the bulb and the battery drain he been fighting for 2 years gone.

I'll need to look, but I can literally hear it from the engine bay, near the A/C equipment.

Well, if it's any consolation, I'm itching to have it legal and on the road again, soon... at which point I'll have a wheel-hopping burnout video for your viewing pleasure.

you want some milk and cookies or something????

Now who's the POST HO!!!!!!!!

[Freshmeat]

Give me back my thread!!
Next project is gonna be a rear end rebuild with 3.73s, LSD, and new (hopefully custom) control arms. Depends on if he'd be able to build them cheap enough to market to ya'll at a reasonable price. They'd be indestructible- he's an offroad fabricator and despite one truck (Ram 1500 at that) landing on ONE WHEEL from about three feet in the air, it didn't even bend his control arms.

If any of you would be interested in these, let me know, so I can tell him others would want them, too.

[phayzer5]

do you plan on dropping your car from 3 feet in the air?

[Freshmeat]

Depends on if I'm in high speed pursuit of two motor bikes who just shot my friend with silenced fully automatic guns.

But ultimately, I know control arm strength is a huge factor in performance. This guy doesn't build things "to ge the job done". He builds things to last.

He built a bumper for a guy who subsequently hit a tree doing about 30mph... The seat bracket snapped, the frame cracked, and his battery was punctured, but the bumper didn't even dent. He knows his shit.
