    Question Changing the Fuel Filters on 6.0

    The socket that I am refering to is shorter than most sockets and allows you to actually turn the cap a lot easier. I will find it and post. Rob

    Question Changing the Fuel Filters on 6.0

    Also, there is a special socket head that I ordered somewhere that makes the lower fuel filter easier to get on and off. Still a diesel bath though. Rob

    Dual 5' Firestik tuning issue

    There is always discussion about the two whip situation. I run a single Predator on my tractor trailer with a Connex 3500. I can flat get out and I have little dead spot. The way that the double whip waves is like throwing stones in a pond. Everywhere the waves hit each other they cancel...

    Question Just need an answer

    I have the Edge Juice platinum I like it, some don't. I, like you, was looking for better performance and better milage. The Edge has a couple of items I liked: in cab monitor that I can change on the fly, turbo cooler, adjustment for wheels and tires, set point alarms and code reading. Just...

    Painting Wheels

    Sounds like powder coating it is. I am close to Nashville, TN. Any suggestions? It sounds like that it is just as cheap to just have them blasted and coated at the same place. Rob

    Hotter themostat

    Actually, I do a lot of hauling and the truck simply doesn't get to 200. I have done a lot of reading and it seems to be many peoples opinion, that are a lot smarter than I am, that diesel is more efficiant at 200 degrees. If the truck never reaches that temperature than... So I thought that I...

    Hotter themostat

    I have been told that my thermostat in my '06 has less than a 200 degree themostat. With winter coming on I would like to get the temperatures up as much as possible. I have done some searches w/o finding one on a site. Does a replacement 200+ exist? Rob

    AIH removal

    Hey guys, what is everybody's opinion? It seems easy enough. At what temperature does it actually start heating the air in normal use? Rob

    Edge Platinum problem

    HMMMMM..... so I guess I will do that on Monday. I was really eager to get it up today. I thought that they used to have a 24 hr hotline. The number I got off of their website is a Mon-Fri deal.

    DRW covers/wheels

    I am looking to sport up the work truck and either add covers or wheels to the whole thing. We have been running the nekked wheels for about a year on my '06 f-350. I am hoping to find covers so that I can continue to rotate all six wheels when needed. Is there any source on here or...

    Block heater on 05 PSD

    So you are telling me that I paid like a $100 for a cord here in TN. That figures. When I bought last year it blew me away that it was an option anyway. Rob

    think I'm losing my mind

    I agree totally global warming, Polar melt... That has to be the problem. Put some house plants in the cab of your truck and it should run fine. Rob

    '06 oil leak

    Well we can't find the leak. The dye didn't leave a mark so they are thinking for whatever reason that I need to run another 1000 miles and then check again. I am really bummed at the thought that I am going to have a rebuilt motor at 22K. They offered to tear it apart and put the rear main on...
