    Found another reason to have a dually!!!

    I like my 1 ton SRW, but I sure like to look at a curvy truck, too.

    4x4 not working??

    Leaks in the vacuum lines to the hubs commonly cause the symptoms you describe.

    Transmission fluid and longevity

    We have the heat under control with a 6.0 cooler hheynow. So, no worries there. I was more concerned with how the stock clutches and seal stand up to the synthetic oils. 01smokinsd, the manual says Mercon and the dipstick says Mercon. Smokey, I understand what the TSB says, but I wanted to get...

    That sure speaks well of Amsoil.

    Transmission fluid and longevity

    I did not see a Mercon only fluid listed on Amsoil's site. And the Mobil Mercon fluid is not synthetic. Only Mobil 1 is synthetic. The reason we want to use the synthetic is for it's heat resistance and longer drain intervals. Otherwise we would continue to use dino fluid.

    Transmission fluid and longevity

    Perhaps I should re-state my question. I will be changing the fluid in my dad's 2002 PSD auto 4x4 CC dually soon, and he is asking about synthetic transmission fluid. We have always used dino Dexron III/Mercon because the owner's manual states to only use that fluid and NOT MERCON V OR DUAL...

    seat belt indicator

    If you have access to a mill you could just make a copy of the metal piece of the seat belt latch and stick it in there when you want the chime off. Make it a little longer than normal so you can get it back out, though.

    Transmission fluid and longevity

    I will be changing the tranny fluid in my dad's 02 350 CC 4x4 DRW soon. We have installed a 6.0 cooler and changed the standard Dexron III/Mercon every 30k miles since he bought it. We are considering going with the Amsoil Universal ATF, as he has Amsoil in the diffs and transfer case and is...

    1st time using B20

    I plan on running a tank of B5 (all we can get around here) before my next filter change for that reason.

    1st time using B20

    Biodiesel is an incredible solvent, and will clean out any junk in the tank, lines, or anywhere else in the fuel system. This is why so many people have said be ready to change out your filter. Did the filter look junked up when you changed it? I don't know about the blends, but B100 will...

    ceramic or not?

    I have heard that the ceramic pads will wear rotors really bad, because they are extremely hard. Any truth to this?

    Oil Pan Replacement

    Couldn't you clean all of the paint and rust off of the spot and weld a pad over the leaky spot? Then coat it with POR-15 or some other coating.

    Fuel Additive

    I run Stanadyne Lubricity Formula in every tank, and a shot of Powerservive Diesel Kleen (grey bottle) every now and then to clean up the injectors. Read this article before you make a decision. Lucas did not fare too well, BTW. Lubricity Additive Study Results - Diesel Place
