    Ladder bars really needed???

    So installed all my new power upgrades and love the truck. Then I watched the H&S axle wrap video and it kinda freaked me out! :( I haven't "put my foot in it" since. Is this a hoax or is it something I need to be worried about with my new power? I don't tow much, but when I do, I don't...

    Block heater stopped working

    So about a week ago my block heater just stopped working. I haven't had a chance to look at it in the day light yet, but they aren't fused or anything are they? It is basically just an extension cord with a heating element on the end correct? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    I know there are a million out there and probably just as many opinions, but any thoughts? I am going with 2.5 inch. Do I need a track bar drop bracket or adjustable track bar? How about cam adjusters?

    Winter cover

    I live in Nebraska and it tends to get pretty cold in the winter. I have been looking at these front end winter covers. Does anyone else on this forum use one? I am just curious as to if they really work or not and if there are any negatives about them?

    Question Trading '03 for '08 or newer.......

    .......so I am thinking of "upgrading" my current '03 6.0 and getting an '08-'10 6.4. I haven't done much research on the 6.4's, but reading through some of the posts, it seems as though most people are happy with them except for the mileage. I have the EGR delete, upgraded turbo, new FICM and...

    ISSPRO Pillar guage

    Ok...so my ISSPRO tranny guage started acting up about 3 months ago. Gauge would constantly bounce around. Called ISSPRO and they sent me a new "box" that powers the gauge.

    Warm weather additive

    So since I live in Omaha, NE, I have to use antigel in the winter. What I don't know about is if I have to use additive in the summer? I have went one summer with using it and one without. Really didn't notice any difference, but that doesn't mean it doesn't do something. Any suggestions?
