    Gas/diesel prices We need Reagan back to put on price controls like he did in the 70's. Stopped the price gouging and the long lines dissapeared overnight. My $. 02

    Timbren Suspension Overloads

    timbrens if the wrong timbrens are installed, they will make the ride very rough, as mine did the first time I had them installed. I called the factory and told them my story and they explained the "right" timbrens must be installed for the year and model of vehicle. I had a heck of a time...

    Overloaded tires

    I'm running Michlen Load range "E" @3195# each @ 70psi. I take this to mean 6400# is all the bed of my truck can wiegh, is this correct or is there some kind of safety factor figured in. The rear of ny truck wieghs 3100# empty so I figure that the max that I can load is 3300#. Is this correct or...

    Timbren Suspension Overloads

    Timbrens I pull a 38' Avion 5er with a tongue wieght of 3200# loaded. Before the timbrens, the truck squated 3. 5" when the 5er was hooked up. After installing the Timbrens, the truck only squated 2" and the ride was excellent. When empty the timbrens are about 1. 25" from touching the axel...

    TSB's

    I'm from Grants Pass, Oregon and when I got the TSB done, the service writer gave me a read out that showed that the TSB that was installed was the 007 and not the 037. I am now in California and have hand calced my mileage on the trip here. I was towing a 15,000lb. 5th wheel and on flat land...

    With tow/haul button, who needs a clutch?

    2nd gear lock-up Apparently the '04, 305/555 & the '04. 5 325/600 electronics are different. I don't know of anyone with the 325/600 48RE that locks up in 2nd gear, so the trans. electronics must be different. :(

    With tow/haul button, who needs a clutch?

    2nd gear lock-up :) Rankram-Maybe the 03 trans does lock-up in 2nd gear, but I thought we were talking about the 04. 5, which has, as I understand it, different electronics for almost everything. :--) including the trans.

    With tow/haul button, who needs a clutch?

    2nd gear lock-up 48RE :eek: Just because the trans selector is in 2nd and the trans is in 2nd, doesn't mean that the TQ is locked up. When manually shifted to 2nd gear, the RPM shouldn't buzz up when tapping the throttle, it should increase in proportion to the speed. You can tell this by...
