    Well Crap..............

    THAT is a sweet truck. I'm thinking of getting rid of the 08 and 03 for a new one. Wife doesnt want to have a dually as the only pickup, unless it's another flatbed. I'm not sure I want a flatbed as the only pickup... we'll see...!!

    What can be done about "warped" rotors?

    I have a set of Powerslots on mine, front n rear with 80-90K on them, have towed a bunch, hauled big loads etc over Donner Summit n others. No warping or other issues-Hawk pads tho I couldnt tell you what "color". I had the rotors cryo'd which is the same as the Frozen Rotors and they support...

    Question Best gooseneck hitch

    No queston... B&W!! And save the install $$, do it yourself (after you powerwash the underside :D) I've put in 4 or 5; aint no mechanical genius.. That 4" hole saw will come in useful someplace else, I'm sure! Good luck! Mike

    Wrecked my injectors/HPOP...

    Cps SMOKNZ Have you ever changed out the CPS? If you had good oil pressure (either OEM gauge or aftermarket) the HPOP didnt get starved, I'm thinking. The stalling/loping symptom makes me think of that pesky crank pos sensor.... A scan is a great idea...even if no SES/CEL is on...

    7.3L Towing weight???

    You'll be fine Our horse trailer (4horse Trails West trailer (steel) with 3 big saddlehorses and gear for 5days at a line camp comes in right at 9500lbs. Thats well under the GCVW for your pickup. That setup is hauled with the below SRW rig; even before the flatbed was put on and when it...

    Wanting to buy a (stick) welder but have no clue what size I need

    If you are going to be welding strictly in the shop, then wire feed is the only way to go. I routinely build/repair corral panels (reeeal thin metal-16ga) to repairing ranch equipment with the same Miller. Waay simpler and easier than stick. Even I can do it. But if you are going to be...

    Air Filter

    Absolutely Donaldson/AIS. Flows huge amounts of air (especially if you do some version of opening up the intake) and the filter is very effective! Mike

    I/C tubes

    I am gonna pull the tubes off (from the intake to the I/C) this weekend. The aluminum foil insulation is getting shabby looking, so want to peel it off. Anyone done that?? Any hassles with the stuff? Then going to have them powdercoated. Thinking either black or black :sly but wondering...

    locking hubs

    I too have Warn Premiums and no complaints. But Dynatrac recently came out with their version of the Warn. If it is as good, as well made as the rest of their stuff they deserve a look.. Mike
