Sure glad I dont have 175+k on an LMM! Your numbers are off.

Ran for a few days over a year, been down for about 3 years 4 months. Has 20,300 or so miles. Still smells brand new inside, its like I bought a brand new truck again! :spit:

Whats wrong with having 175k+ miles on a truck? FYI not all of us can/want to buy a new truck every other year...

Just to set the record straight, there was no problem with PPEs work that they performed last year - I got the truck back home, drove it 3 or 4 trips for 20 miles or so around town and came home one night. Next morning no crank, no start. I left it parked and that was that... a bit discouraged as it was just another issue after issue after issue.

I didnt have the means of getting it back down to LA since it was my tow truck, and I was busy with other projects at the time, etc etc. Jason LBZRcks was able to finally help me out with scheduling issues between the both of us after a few months of us trying, and he got it down last week.

Problem found - loose 12v+ connection at starter. :baby: More than likely something I did when putting in the motor or someone that was helping me did - doesnt matter. Simple thing, fixed - they also fixed a fuel leak and GPCM not being hooked up. Its waiting for Mike L to get an open spot and Ill be down to get it.

I didn't think the truck would start with the gpcm unhooked. Anyways you waited almost a year to find out it just needed a connection tightened on the starter??? How could you not have checked that? And are you getting the transmission built at Mike's?
