My early '04 is leaking oil from the turbo where the snap ring holds the compressor housing to the bearing housing. It is a slow leak that has caused oil to accumulate on the bottom of the housing and onto the hose that connects it to the intercooler. I have a holset rebuild kit on order, and...

The wire broke off of the ecm pin where it is crimped so I'd rather not try to solder it back onto the pin. Jim, I unhooked the ecm plug and still couldn't get the pin to go in deep enough to lock once the pin itself was inside the plug the white wire would star bunching up. It's like the wire...

I installed the Pacbrake PRXB kit on my truck yesterday. The installation went flawlessly. When I went to operate it for the first time the brake would'nt operate. When I hooked the black and white wires to the ecm I pulled the red dust plugs out and pushed the wires in. The black wire locked in...

I installed an Isspro fuel pressure gauge with isolator on my truck. After cranking up the truck it would operate at about 10 psi. When I turned it off, it would stick around 7-8 psi. I cracked the fitting on the gauge side of the isolator to bleed off the pressure. It worked fine for a couple...

I am wanting to put a set of fender flares on my truck. I have the factory mopar mud flaps on it already. . Can the mud flaps still be used with fender flares or do they require some modification to fit? What brand of flares fit the best? I kinda' like the ATS. Can you buy them already painted...

I have a set of the new isspro gauges(boost & egt) and a cubbyhole mount on the way from Geno's. Where is the best place to wire in for the dimmer circuit? I'd rather not take alot of the dash apart if I can help it. Does the EGT require a switched 12+ to operate? If so where is the best...

So where is the best place to order one from? I saw on a website the other day a motoblue volumizer is it the same as the pdq?

I think I'm leaning towards getting the pdq volumizer for my truck. What does everybody think of it? I like the idea of in-cab adjustability and better low-end power. What do you all think of it compared to the other boxes under 100 HP? How is my long-term reliability effected? Who has the...

I'm kinda leaning toward the EZ or Volumizer. Seems to me the volumizer would be the best for the low-end power, timing, and in-cab adjustability. The TST is too much power for me. I play on keeping my stock turbo. Do you all like the volumizer???

I am wanting to put a chip in my truck, but I am unsure which one would benefit me the most. After reading this issue of TDR, I am still puzzled. I tow around 17,000 pounds, and I realize that I probably couldn't use it towing because of high egt's. Does a pressure box such as the Edge EZ or...

I am wanting to put a boost and egt gauge on my truck using the cubbyhole mount from Geno's. Which series of Autometer gauges match the best, or how hard is it to fit Diprocols in the mount? Thanks alot.

I have a 1948 John Deere A that me and my dad restored. It actually got put into a popular calendar this you for February. I also have a 1951 John Deere G that I pull. It has been "chipped" and is putting out 75 hp. The only thing I didn't do to it was stroke it. Could someone tell me how to...

I am a welder and fabricator and thought that it looked like a simple job if you have the right metal and equipment to do it with. I just can't seem to find any measurements on the net. Another question, how do you feel out your signature and put your truck and its mods down on every thread. I...

Does anybody know anywhere on the internet to get measurements to build your own leveling kit. It looks like a simple and cheap job if you have the metal and the tools to do it with. Thanks for the help.

I drove a 03 today with an exhaust brake while I was getting my truck serviced at the dealer. I had never been around one to tell how good they work. I must say I think that is a good investment to have. The only thing I didn't like is that it sounded like an air leak while it was activated. All...
