    Getting new tires today. :clap: I went with the Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs. 315/75/16s they are a load range E tire and they look good I think. I thought about the Toyo M/Ts but I was scared about my truck driving like crap again for another 50,000 miles. The duratracs look like a cross...

    Weird Problem??

    Last year, when it was cold I noticed that I always had a leak. It was diesel fuel. I kind of let it go and when it warmed up outside, it stopped leaking. Now it started getting cool again and the leak came back. The only thing I can think it possibly is, is the fuel bowl drain o-rings. I...

    Question Biodiesel friendly Fuel Filter?

    Oil in my new exhaust??

    I got my exhaust put on Saturday (T-409 MBRP duals). I was checking them out today and saw something in in the passenger tailpipe. Put my finger in there and sure enough....oil. Is this normal? If I did the CCV mod would it fix this? If I do the mod do I need to clean out the intercooler...

    Centramatics for me?

    I would like to hear from everyone who has Centramatics and your thoughts good or bad. Accel, Decel, Braking, Cruising. Is it worth it just for the ride not the treadwear savings?

    Catalytic Converter

    If you get an aftermarket exhaust do you have to buy an extra cat delete pipe to get rid of the cat? I am interested in the MBRP as well and was curious. How much can you get for the cat at a recycling place you think? I have seen delete pipes for the 6.0 but not my 7.3.

    Need help with the lie-o-meter

    My overhead lie-o-meter quit working on me out of the blue and I need to see if anyone might know what it could be. I really don't need it but I can't stand to have something not work on one of my vehicles. The two buttons still light up but nothing on the screen. Thanks.

    Repair Price??

    I took my truck to a shop today (people I trust). I told them to check the front end out and see if there was something making my steering sloppy. Sure enough it needs all the balljoints, Inner and outer tie rod ends, an adjusting sleeve, and sway bar end links. Total with labor came to...

    6.0 Intercooler in my 7.3.....Why?

    I am curious to know why a 6.0 intercooler is better. It looks as if a 7.3 is larger. Larger= more surface area to cool air...right?
