2005 1500 5.3 157k. Start it up and works fine. Goes in to all the gears and lights up what gear its in. Drive it a little bit idk if hitting brakes makes it go away? It goes away in P R N. Shows up in Drive 3 2 1. Had gauge replaced with fully rebuilt cluster 5 years ago. Way to fix it? Shift cable needs adjustment? Nuetral safety ? Big thing with it is doesn’t know its in park so doors dont auto unlock.

Cluster issue. If your handy, might be able to re-solder the contact. If not, refurbished cluster.

  Your truck lowered, looks good. I'm happy with the stance on this. I may need the extra ground clearance given my location/situation.

  With this new pan, do you still use the same procedure to check the level? Its a deeper pan and our trucks do not have a fill tube/dipstick. So fill till fluid runs out the check plug?

  On mine? Yes. But I did it rather expensively. I had Deaver Springs make new rear springs with a 2" lower arch and then removed the nearly 2 inch thick spring to axle spacer. The front is Bell Tech 2" drop knuckles. Rear shocks, stock, were several inches over mid stroke so when I bought the King shocks I used the OEM length with the drop to put it at dead mid stroke. Fronts are King Coil Over OEM replacements with 600# springs. Again sits mid stroke. Deaver, King Suspension and Ben at Filthy Motorsports were all involved. Lots of measurements and lots of conferences but it came out spot on first time around. The 2" I link I sent you would use the factory shocks and coil overs or any other OEM type replacement units you like. I assumed from your thread that keeping the factory feel and ride quality was likely. My project intended to change the very nature of the beast and it did.

  Yes back when all the stuff started in Iran. Had a small price increase, then another one. Supposedly temporary. But who really knows for sure as long as there is turmoil in the middle east.
