Noticed you have an Edge. Might give them a call. My 98. 5 24 valve started acting real strange. Went to Auto Zone the codes were 1693 (telling me to check for other codes) and 1689 ECM and Injection pump not talking. Looked further on here and found a reference to checking with Edge. Did call...
How do I contact you for information
Rod,
I am a somewhat infrequent user on this site. How do I contact you to find out prices, results, etc.
Thanks,

Tire wear is effected by road surface
I had a long talk with various tire manufacturers on the phone. We in the Rocky Mountains get less mileage out of our tires due to the road surface. Our asphalt has a granite base and other states like Texas have sandstone for their road base. I too was...
There is a formula that was posted earlier
There is a formula that was posted earlier. I tried asking the tire manufacturers about correct tire pressure and the replies stated the vehicle manufacturers know what we should run. Go figure.
Anyway, the formula is simple.

Try a trailer hitch place
Mactruck,
I found a few places, one here in Colorado that has what you are looking for priced at $43. You should be able to find one closer to you. You might try the autoparts places to or a boat shop.
Here is the website for the one here...
It was a re-run. Saw it earlier. A list of their shows and who the sponsers were will be on their website. Crank and Crome did one a while back and yes it was impressive and they did give both the horsepower and torque numbers.
azcummins - you have done your research
Sounds like everything is correct.
I expect you will keep us posted if anything develops.
And you do have a good looking rig.
Are you in FC?
Dave
Still something left to verify
azcummins,
With the information from Dodge-Tech it brings up the question since your wheels are hub centered and you have slippage it now sounds like the hub diameter on the wheel is larger than it should be. Could be you have the wrong wheels for your rig...
azcummins
Nice looking rig all the way around. It does sound like a sleave would help. There is so much information on the Alcoa site and there are pictures of a set of what looks like something for a wheel adapaters.
At this point it might be worth a call this week to Alcoa to see if you...
Check Alcoa for recalls
azcummins,
After I posted my first reply I continued to look at Alcoa wheels and found this site. If the wheels you are talking about have this part number you might have a problem.

Double check the lug nuts
I used to work for Goodyear, yes it was long time ago and all that since is was my college job. My job was to change tires on anything and everything, go-carts to tractors. Most were cars, pickups and usually at least one big rig per week. Even the custom wheels with...
The mechanics/technitions are who we should follow
All,
It comes down to the mechanics in the Denver area. I bought my truck from the dealer in the college town just north west of Denver. I originally had it serviced by what was then Broadway Dodge - that dealer became a John Elway Dealer...
Check you rear drums
Sloan,
Check your rear drums for clearance. They might work but you may have to have the drums trimmed on the outside. I have a 98. 5 and really liked the looks of the new factory aluminum wheels but found out about the clearance issue.
So, I bought American Eagle...
