Yes, i thought of that of course, but I want to get it done locally here in San Diego, and a lot of the guys are out of the area or out of state.

Guys: I have a 2004. 5; 3" suspension lift; 35" tires. Other than that, its all stock. transmission started slipping in first gear off the line pretty bad tonight. It has 89,500 miles. Will my 100,000 mile warranty from Dodge cover it? Also, any ideas on what the problem could be...

TRUE STORY THAT HAPPENED ABOUT 6 weeks ago in April: One day, I had my motorcross bike in the back, my girl and her friend in the truck, and I was heading back home south on the I-15 after a long day of riding the track. Along side me on the freeway, a new Ford F350 Powerstoke Dually rolls up...

I had an issue this week with power "falling off" (i. e no boost) above 50% throttle. Ended up being my friggen air filter sucked into my housing a bit and restricted airflow to the turbo enough to cause a MAJOR drop in boost, thus power. I know it's a 'basic" check, but I learned that if we...

BOB WAS THE CLOSEST IN HIS "ONLINE DIAGNOSIS" - IMPRESSIVE BOB!! Just had it fixed: The air filter actually tore and sucked into the housing (<--weird how that happened because the filter is only 12k miles old!) and they changed the Fuel/Water Separator while they were at it. So Bob's "Cummins...

Hello Gentlemen: Truck is all stock. It's not throwing an error code. The whole motor just "drops off" at or above 50% throttle. It doesn't matter if you roll it on, or stab it, it does the same thing: drops off. It's like it completely "gives up". Under 50% throttle it runs normal...

I have a 2004. 5 2500 4x4 that is all stock except for suspension and rims. What Exhaust Kit would you guys recommend? Besides performance, I want a burly sound. I don't care too much about it being quiet in the cab since I always have my stereo on. Any recommendations on setup, size...

My buddy is installing a new fuel system this weekend and he just realized he’s going to need an inline check valve for his custom 1/2” system. Does anyone know who sells them and can ship out tomorrow? Not sure if he needs spring loaded type or not but we need to find a place that sells a...

Does anyone know where I can get a set of Replacement Sport Driving Lights (lower), inexpensive, that match as a direct replacement of the OEM. I am posting this for my buddy who has a 2001 Sport 4x4 and his lower lenses are yellow. He already replaced the uppers, he just wants to replace...

Gents: I just replaced the lift pump less than 200 miles ago. The connector to the pump was loose and when we jiggled it the pump turned back on. However I put the new pump in and used the old as back up. Check engine light came on today: These are the codes: P0514 Battery...

Wow... there are opinions all over the board. I am beginning to think that Bob4x4 and Cerberusiam's advice is he best: transmission Mods first then add horsepower/torque. I have to admit, I have a heavy foot. I like to race. To think that will change is just lieing to myself. Heck, I have been...

I have a stock 2004. 5 (sig below) and I'm looking for some extra HP. I don't tow and the truck will be completely stock except for the programmer... I'm under the impression I can use a programmer with my stock setup and not affect the warranty? Please confirm this. Can those of you...

Thanks to all you guys for your valuable input. I have a big learning curve ahead! Best, Jake
