    Lifting a 2500 with RWD

    I put in 1 in. taller front springs from Coil Spring Specialties, in St. Marys KS. Didn't look like it did much. I was trying to level the bed rail to match my 5er. I also put in custom shackles to lower the rear but that's not what your about. My front end guy said I could put as much as 3 in...

    Take it you have an inside line to him. As a senior I going to guess he'll be on limited duty for 4 to 6 months. That could work for me, especially if I could communicate with him about my project. See you are a biker. I was for 50 years until my balance disappeared suddenly year and a half ago...

    This link will take you to Danny Orozco who says Fred Swanson subs out everything to him but has some mixed reviews and I cannot find anyone to confirm his claims of association with Fred.

    Where is Fred Swanson

    Thanks for response. Would like more info. You say WAS doing business. What was your last contact? I also saw mixed reviews on Danny. But I also know many in the public are jerks, and it's tough to please everyone.

    Fuel heater grid?

    Pretty, for a mere $345 (per mopar online) to fix a loose bolt problem.

    Fuel heater grid?

    Thanks, Not to start a fight, just trying to get the dynamics of how it works. Answer to another post says EGR recircs to intake track which goes to plenum and back across grid heater right? does the EGR have the soot cleaned from DPF or is that some how channeled separate to the exhaust system?

    Fuel heater grid?

    Thanks, looking at profile, please let that be Riverside, CA? If so I'm looking for competent, honest Cummins diesel shop in south west. Some times I'm in Vista, East of Oceanside, CA.

    Fuel heater grid?

    Thanks, What does the pipe around the top front of the engine and leading into the intake do?

    Fuel heater grid?

    In other discussions on other sites the opinion seems to be that the "grid heater" also performs some function to do with the DPF and the soot burn off cycle so that deleting might cause soot build up and emissions malfunction?

    Fuel heater grid?

    Well after reading the 1st couple posts I choose to ignore the situation and I didn't follow the post. Now the situation has deteriorated. A weird noise like chunking then rattle, whirring rattle, and flutter, thwap and exhaust plink, engine went smoother, quieter, and sped up, then everything...
