    Going to a 5th wheel from a cabover

    Going to a fifth wheel trailer from the current cabover and am wondering, is there a difference in the hitches mounted in the beds? Is there a style to look for before shopping the classifieds and RV lots for a trailer? Do certain fifth wheel trailers use a certain style other than making sure...

    Amsoil filter location

    Is it just me or do those two filter manufacturers contradict themselves, especially in regards to the filter style and medium??

    Another Oil Cooler/EGR thread..

    Great, thanks! Seeing as I have an '06, I guess I'm looking at needing a tuner to get rid of the chk light. The coolers on the site you referenced... I can see they're a much better unit, but in the end, isn't getting rid of the EGR a better solution in the long run?

    Another Oil Cooler/EGR thread..

    Not to hijack thje thread, but what's the deal with putting on an EGR delete kit and the check engine light(s)? I can totally see the vailue in tossing $350 on a complete delete kit, but if I have to toss another $500 at it for an SCT tuner that I'll only use to clear the codes, it's not...

    6.o remote start?

    Thanks for the input. Having installed these in an '06 6.0 DIESEL which of the systems that are mentioned actually worked? I'm curious as to how the remote start accounts for the pre heat of the glow plugs prior to cranking.

    6.o remote start?

    Looking at a remote start for an '06 6.0 F350. As Winter draws near, it'd sure be nice to enjoy another cup of coffee in the house while the rig get's warm. My dealer had one and pretty much just said "You can make it work, you can have it!" The thing looked like a spiderweb of wires a nd...

    Question Dino - Syn-back to dino...

    Anticipating going down So, as in waaay So for a while and am wondering what the scenerio is regarding going from the dino engine oil I'm using now, to syn for the longer life span, and then back to dino if I can't get the syn down there. I'm running the Amsoil bypass by the way.

    Stolen by-pass oil filter

    I ordered an Amsoil kit here and it was a piece by piece deal, not "you gotta buy the whole kit".

    AUX switches have relays, yea or no?

    Got it. Here's my bitch... the light mfgs want to sell the wiring and relays for some additional coin. Is there an outlet that I can just go get the relay's at and then is there a way to figure what lug on the relay goes to what?

    Tranny flush/fill dino to syn

    OK, here's a question I've not seen addressed- If after swapping a bigger tranny pan and filter, I fill the trans with synthetic. What happens with regard to the dino oil left in the convertor? Will the mixing of the dino and syn fluids effectively screw the pooch?

    AUX switches have relays, yea or no?

    OK, so I'm still going to need to get the relay and connect it to the wire off the AUX switch....
