    Lack of power????

    I was reversing my trailer into a campsite when my front left tire got wedged on a tree stump. I stopped and reversed again but the truck did not have the power to go over it.

    It rattles when you have it out and u turn it upside down. I believe its ok. No extra smoke only on a high tune. But the coke was damp in the EGR.( the coke deposits were damp-like). Could that be air filter oil?

    I just cleaned my EGR today. It was about 50% coked up but kind of damp. When I had it out it rattled too. I am not sure either if this is a good thing.

    Lack of power

    No, the MPG did not really change. The 33 inch tires made a bigger difference .

    Leveling Kit Question

    I have a 2.5 inch leveling kit for my 04. Rough Country makes them as well as others. I paid less than 400 canadian for the whole kit. You can probably get it cheaper in the US. It has a complete leaf spring pack to replace your old leaf springs. It comes with longer shocks, hardware and another...

    Intake

    Is there much of a difference between the stage 1 AFE Magnum Force intake and stage 2 of the AFE intake? Can i upgrade and still use my stage 1 box??

    Zoo Dad - How good is it?

    I have a AFE stage 1 intake on my truck. Would the Zoo Dad installation make much of a differece. Looking through my grille it seems that it would restrict a lot of air flow. .
