Love It! ernesteugene Welcome to TDR! You can see the truck I have that is listed in my signature. I love this truck with the G56. This truck will pull whatever you want, but the problem a lot of times is getting stopped. I would add an exhaust brake before I ever hooked the trailer up and...

"Plugs with nipple extend 1. 5 inches. Never remove it from the pan again. The stainless steel spring prevents any accidental opening. It requires two distinct actions to open it, and its heavy-duty construction will withstand engine vibration. " Quote above is straight from the information...

Thanks for the information. I just added the cab lights to my truck and was a little concerned about the lights leaking. It will be my next purchase - tonight!

Just purchased OEM cab lights for '06 truck. Instructions say to remove front portion of headliner to install. Can anyone tell me how to remove the headliner especially from around computer and temp display to allow this install. Any help you can give would be great.

To access the light switch wire I removed the lower portion on the panel under the steering wheel (two screws at bottom, then pop out). Then there are about three screws that hold the panel that the light switch is mounted to. With those removed, then you can pull out on the panel enough to get...

I tied my light to the light switch, It is the orange wire with the brown stripe. Also drilled into manifold at the easiest point, just forward of the down turn. Used a mechanics magnet to remove all shavings from inside the manifold once I had it tapped. Ran all wires through the rubber boot...

This morning the High Idle and Exhaust brake worked great with the temp at 5* and the wind howling, it was nice to hear that baby kick up!

Had 03 with Pac Brake pulling heavy loads. Just bought 06 and installed the Jake Brake pulling same loads and do not feel it has the retarding power of the Pac Brake on the 03. I was also told by a Pac Brake distributor that they did not have a brake out yet for the 06 G56. Is that true?

With my '03 HO 6 speed, I just filled up after 338 miles and got 21. 1mpg (hand calc. ). Did not go faster than 65mph, no interstate, no stop and go, just driving back and forth to work (19 miles one way). I have read a lot on here about the poor mileage of the new 600's are getting and I am...

Installed XM about a year ago and love it. I do like it a lot better since they went completly commercial free. i installed the Terk Commander because of its low profile design and large display area. I like it not being the first thing you see when you get in the truck. The first thing I like...

I too experienced the same "barking" when shifting from 6th to 5th loaded with 18,000 lbs going upgrade. I was very alarmed and had no idea what may have been the cause. With the dealership more than 100 miles away it seemed impossible to get an answer to my mysterious sound. I also found with...
