    V10 Info

    OK everybody, I'm over it!!! I really do like my truck and I have decided to keep it. Whatever it was that came over me I shook it off and came to my senses. Just to make sure I was over it I took it to the tire store yesterday and put 6 new Michelins on it and for an added measure I went...

    V10 Info

    Thanks Mopar. You're right about the costs of horsepower gains with the diesel. I put too much on my auto and had to get the transmission upgrades from DTT and still only had about $2300 invested. It makes good power, but now my EGTs have to be monitored closely while towing. Sometimes I...

    V10 Info

    Mopar, I know what you mean about the mileage numbers. I get around 17 - 19 mpg running solo and it drops to the 6 - 8 mpg range when pulling my fiver. It's 35ft long, triple slides, and has a dry weight of 11,700. Loaded for a week's stay it will probably weight approx 12,500. On a recent...

    PAY IT FORWARD - KwikSpool Hx40 Turbo!

    Put me down as a test subject for the turbo and I just checked out your pics and I am also very interested in those exhaust stacks. I noticed that you pull a trailer, does it smoke up the trailer with soot? Keep me posted and thanks. I wish you the best of luck. Wendell

    John, I have the 275's and the PE EZ and with the PE set on the 1st position I have experienced a slight gain in the MPG, however, with the PE set in the 3rd position (most aggressive) I had a decrease in the MPG, but man was it fun to drive. I couldn't tow my 36ft Fiver, 12,700lbs, with...

    Clicking Noise - HELP!

    I jacked up the front end yesterday and there was no play in the bearings that I could detect and it's not a 4X4. Beats me what the heck it is. I guess I'll have to take it in to the dealer and I sure hate to do that. A dealer is the last resort. Wendell

    Clicking Noise - HELP!

    Hey folks, I have a clicking noise coming from somewhere in the front wheels and I need your help determining what it is and how to fix it. It sounds like I have a rock in the tires, but I checked that and removed all of them and it still clicks. It seems to be getting louder as each mile...

    Straight piped

    Hey guys, I had my muffler and resonator replaced with the Walker straight thru muffler about two months ago and it's too loud. I also have this strange whistling sound when I get in it. Anyway, I'm looking for an alternative way to go. Thinking of trying the flowmaster next. If any of...

    Do you tow with you auto transmission?

    Steven, I tow a 36 ft 5th wheel, triple slide, road ready it weighs close to 13,000lbs and I have no trouble towing since I had the DTT vb and tc installed. Before the install I had alot of slippage especially going uphill. By all means, get the transmission upgraded, you won't be dissappointed...
