    aFe Mega Cannon

    Guys, How much noise should an aFe Mega-Cannon make? Mine sounds like a Jet engine when I get on it and a wind tunnel when I let off... ... . Is that normal? Is it because my 2002 doesn't come with the hood liner? :mad:

    Got My Truck!!!!

    I could have kept my Ford F250 Gasser for another year until the 2003's were out, but I am not quite sure about the new look of the 2003 and wasn't into trusting my, only rebuilt once in 56,000 total miles, E40D transmission for another year. So I took the dive and am loving it... ... neighbors...

    Just installed Hood liner-Big difference!

    Got my new truck on Friday, and ordered the Hood liner on Monday. I can't believe this is one of the things they decided to drop off the truck to save money... ... c'mon DC, $50. 00! :mad: I also ordered the rear fenderwell liners... ..... my buddy has a 2001. 5 and it looks a lot better with...

    Got My Truck!!!!

    New Truck Schu777... ... I can't believe you are STILL waiting. Anywho, I did use the inspection sheet on the dodgeram.org and found three VERY minor things.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Break-In

    All, I tried a search, but couldn't find anything, so here goes. Is there anything I should do with my new Cummins to break it in correctly? I am picking it up this weekend and would like to do it right. :confused: Thanks in advance!

    Manual Transmissions

    Thanks!!! Guys, I appreciate your help. I assume that the 2003 will have the 5 and 6 speed transmissions again, if not, then he will go with whatever one they offer. It looks, from your opinions, that he would do better going with the 6 speed HO in the 2003. Thanks for the answers Oo.

    Liftpumps dreams and thoughts.

    Electrical After tank pump Why can't a booster pump be used to pressurize the inlet of the lift pump with fuel, to make sure it doesn't have to do all of the work? Can one be installed right after the fuel tank? Would this thrash the lift pump? Mike
