    Mag-Hytec 68rfe gasket

    Installing a Mag-Hytec trans pan today. In the instructions it says to install gasket and torque. I'm assuming no RTV is required, is this correct? I have read about problems removing a filter gasket. Is it the gasket for the large non spin on filter? Also, that same large filter did not...

    Turbo or Tc?

    Signature truck has 26k and tows a 6-8k trailer 5 days a week, with e-brake on. Problem: In the last 2 weeks the e-brake or tc is surging when decellerating on steeper hills. When the trans. shifts into 3rd the rpm's are at 2400 and the surging continues until 2000 rpm's. During the surging...

    2011 HO tc lock-up

    I have read that the 68re tc locks up in 4th gear but, it feels like there is a lock-up in 3rd. This is my first auto so I'm not sure. My thought is maybe the trans locks now in 3rd to help with ebrake and the HO engine. Eventhough I don't have the Max tow, is it possible I have the trans? Any...

    cab to bed alignment

    I was washing my truck and noticed the cab was shifted to the pass. side by about 3/4 to 7/8". The cab lined up with the bed on the pass. side and the bed stuck out past the cab on the drivers side. My local dealer realigned the cab on the frame to correct the problem. I walked the lot with a...

    Driving a 2011 HO

    I have been driving my 2011 HO, 3500, drw, crew cab,4x4, auto,for a week now. I,m not overly excited about the power over my signature truck. Maybe after it brakes in a bit, it will come into its power. I went to 3 different dealers trying to get a max tow (4. 10) gears, but the only way to...

    camper sway

    I had a '01 with air bags out side the frame on a srw 2500. The truck handled the camper just fine. My '07 with air bags under the frame seems to sway alot even with an added sway bar. With the '01 air bag pressure was 45-50psi the '07 90psi. I don't think adding 3500 spring with 12% higher...

    I used to run 295/70/17 toyo mt's on my signature truck with stock wheels and no isues. The question: A friend of mine has the same truck in a '08 and auto (not that those matter) wanted to run the same tires but, the tire shop told him he needed ball joint shims to run those tires on his...

    smarty torqe?

    smarty torque? The only numbers I can find for the smarty j67me or any other for that matter is HP. What I want is TQ numbers. It seems that if HP is 60 then TQ is 160 or so. Is this kind of a rule of thumb?

    Hot 6.7

    I have an 07. 5, 6. 7, 6sp man. , 2500, edge insight monitor, with 84k. I pull a 6-7k trailer daily. The truck has worked great I love it. After the j-35 flash, my truck runs hot at warm up. I pull a hill getting to the freeway. At the bottom the temp is 175* and I pull it easy, but the temp now...
