    Bio Crap

    My 2003 2500 daily driver was idling rough, Hmmm. Off to the shop. A day later my mechanic calls me. You're running bio-diesel, correct? (Yes, my card lock must be pumping that) After some discussion he pumped out a quart of non-combustible crap. Also, after 5K my fuel filter was black with ebee...

    Bed size matters.

    I'm starting the process of purchasing a used 4.5 gen 2500, Crew Cab Laramie. I'm somewhat discouraged not seeing 8-foot beds. Please comment on your 6.4 bed & do you wish you had 8ft. Currently I have a 2003 Crew Cab Laramie, with an 8ft.

    leak in the heat.

    I am sure someone has posted this. My apologies ahead, I am in the middle of a crisis & have not been able to get under my truck. (2003, 2500. 5.9) I have a leak with clear & pink fluid. Is this possibly coming from a connection to the transmission cooler. Stay safe out there, Tanks. Gary

    Theft Alarm

    My alarm has a mind of it's own. Several times while the truck is locked the alarm goes off (on) I did read in pervious text the alarm can't be bypassed. I believe the culprit is the the computer & the dealer will change it out. In the meantime can I just disconnected the battery & lock the...

    In the box weight capacity.

    2003, 2500, 4x4 8ft bed & of course 5.9. Trying to calculate the weight capacity of the bed. According to published logic I take GVWR of 9000lbs & subtract from 11,200 (5200lbs front, plus 6000lbs back) The difference is 2,200 lbs. By the by, I have looked high & low for an accurate chart but...

    Rear Door latch replacement.

    OK sportsfans, it appears I need to replace my left rear door latch. I see that a company named Doorman seems to be the prominent manufacture out there.
