    did you ever fix your problem? I had the exact same issue... just on a much larger scale i pulled the head changed gasket (job includes removal of fuel system).

    How many have blown out freeze plugs???

    agreed High Rpm seems to be the source for all my cooling leaks. I looking back i was in a hurry, cruising at a high rate of speed, diagnosing some issues along way and i think i had the overdrive switch in the off position. I got a mile from home and it started to overheat so i took a longer...

    DR Performance thoughts?

    I had this problem with one of my trucks. I was draining the rail. suggest a aftermarket injector pump but you may be able to get away with just a fass pump and or a modded rail from TCwest. for the 1st time i beat him to bragging on his own product. his company also is a nice company to deal with

    5" Down Pipe

    Oh and exhuast wrap helps make up for the difference when you use too big of a pipe. it also acts as a muffler when you put it from turbo to just behind front doors. and another thing. wheelbase actually has alot to do with proper exhuast size. the longer the length the bigger the pipe can...

Bring the service manager and the tech some coffee in the morning and trip. heres another idea if they dont repay you come back with a generator a 6" grinder with a wire wheel and go to town in the parking lot near the bay doors (make sure wind is right). the dust will make the techs choke...

    93 cummins gvw 40,000

    wow alot of very unhelpful responses. I reccomend going to a medium duty rear axle assembly. My F650 can come in two configurations air or hydraulic brakes. find the hydraulic brake variety for ease of install. lower gears in the rear axle take the strain and load off of everything before the...

    14 Bolt Swap to replace Dana 70U

    I spit the pinion seal out the front of the factory dana 70U a month ago. I drove the truck home and ruined the gears and bearings. I figured it was time to go through the rear anyways and regear it the way i wanted. When I got home i tucked the ugly dodge behind the house. 2 months later I went...
