3 year warranty about dead, but...

[Gary - K7GLD]

... *I* sure don't care!



Cuz I knew substantial mods were in my immediate future, if I was to make my truck the way *I* wanted it! SO, rather than wait for "X" number of months to elapse before I DARED do as I wanted to MY truck, I waded in, and have been ENJOYING those changes for these 3 years instead of just DREAMING about them!



More power for my needs practically from day ONE, lots of , and NO :{ :{ :{



Amd THAT'S the way it SHOULD be!

I'm right there with you Gary. I only had 1,000 miles on my truck before I started bombing it to the degree that I wanted for power & dependability. No looking back, no regrets & I have been my own warrenty station since the get go. Working on 3 1/2 years with no problems not even a lift pump failure. Aught Oh did I just jinks myself Thats ok I carry a spare.



Did you go see the Ripster yet & get your new sticks? Oo. Oo.

I Bombed Mine at the Dealer!

I traded a BOMBed '00 2500 for my '02 3500 w/ caviat being I transferred all add-ons. Took 3 days on dealer back lot... changed over exhaust syst, injectors, bumpers, grill guard, headache rack, side steps, gauges, TST PM3 Adj, exhaust brake, tool box. I removed the airbags off 2500, but did not install on my 3500.



They didn't bug me or even check on me. On Saturday, 2500 was bone stock and 3500 was set to go. Sunday, I installed 5th wheel hitch and Monday we headed out from Maryland to Indiana for TDR National. I won newest truck and best in show for 2002.



Life is good!

Doesn't get much better than that wiredawg. I was thinking of doing the same thing, because I want a dually. But then when I think of all that work I change my mind.



Might be a new truck in my distant future. :-laf

I busted the deal once just because of all the work involved... then the zero % interest for 60 mos was too much to pass over the deal. I want to tell you I looked like I was in a cat fight w/ all the scratches and cuts from doing all that work. And I was really worn out and sore. All for greater good.



But, I'm happy I did. Not to be too long winded about it, but I found something real disturbing while removing airbag upper brackets: There are four bolts holding them to the frame and the lower rear of both sides had sheared and were held in place by tension. I felt much better in the decision I made as I think it was just a matter of time before one or both brackets failed... could've been a real train wreck w/ my 5er. The 3500 sets level w/ 5er on it and runs level in curves w/out suspension assist.
