    Hit From Behind

    Went to Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, OH to see the NHRA Drags over July 4th weekend. On the way home, while coming across I-86 in lower NY we were hit from behind. We were pulling the ToyHauler and a car hit us right in the rear of the trailer. It doesn't look like a lot of damage, but so...

    My new bed cover.

    Just installed a new Extang ENCORE hard cover. Really like it. I wanted something that would open from the front as well as from the back because I needed to be able to fill my aux fuel tank. This cover does it all and can easily be removed too. I have to admit that it is kind of heavy and...

    Sorry, above should say 12/29/11 For anyone that's interested. Vt Rt 107, between Stockbridge and Bethel, is scheduled to reopen next Thurs, Dec 29th.

    Trailer Connector Wiring Problem/Question

    When I hooked up to tow my trlr last month, my new MaxBrake gave the message "check trailer wiring" and I had no brakes on the trlr. At first I thought I had a problem with the MaxBrake, but all other wiring/lights seemed to be ok. So controller seems to be ok. Although when disconnected from...

    May Madness-2011

    Wondering if it would be worth it to me to come all the way from Vermont to Pahrump for the event! What actually goes on at these events? What kind of vendors do they have? Are there vendors that do performance installs, such as fuel pumps, filters, injectors? Not sure if that is the type of...

    Time for brakes!

    Ok, I'd like to hear some thoughts. I now have over 126K on my original brake pads. Not bad! But my right rear is starting to drag and squeaks while backing. My dealer says I should do a whole job-new pads, new rotors and possibly emergency brake shoes. Of course his cost is high, almost...

    Cummins BlueTec Diesel

    Ok, time to show my ignorance! I don't know much about these engines other than some recent reading. What are the advantages/disadvantages of this engine? I would imagine mostly disadvantages as this was a 2010 emissions compliant engine in 2007. How does it do on mpg/economy compared to the...

    Fuel Gauge doesn't work

    Hi, any one here have a repair manual for an '04. 5 Cummins 1-ton dually? I need to know the color code of the wire that goes from the on-board fuel gauge sending unit to the fuel gauge in the dash panel. Also, the color code of the on-board in-tank fuel pump feed would be a help. I had to...

    May be looking to trade up....

    I may have put this on the wrong forum, so I will try it here. I have read on here that most of you seem to really like the '08/'09 trucks, I haven't seen a lot of negatives. I have been thinking of looking for a low mileage 2008 or 2009, probably 1 ton dually although a 2500 would probably...

    May be looking to trade up

    I have read on here that most of you seem to really like the 4th gen trucks, I haven't seen a lot of negatives. I have been thinking of looking for a low mileage 2008 or 2009, probably 1 ton dually although a 2500 would probably suit my purposes now as I don't travel so much anymore. For...

    Transmission Problem Again-Suggestions Welcome

    Ok you guys, I like to read these threads because a lot of you are very knowledgeable and give good/useful info. Just had my 48RE transmission rebuilt last fall (2nd time-full rebuild). I am not a mechanic so I can't give a lot of description other than a rebuilt (heavy duty?) torque converter, bands...
