Nervous about the install. Few questions.
Should i disconnect both positives on the battery's?
Do you end up pulling the pcm out thru the inside to install the chip?


Thanks
Mike
Mike,

How the PCM comes out depends on the truck. The SD trucks come out from the inside of the vehicle while the 95-97 trucks are removed inside the engine compartment.

There is no need to disconnect the batteries. Even if there were a reason, the negative cables are always a better idea to disconnect than the positives.
