    4X4 Hubs Won't unlock

    Well had to grab 4X4 again while moving our 38ft horse trailer around the yard after 3-4 in dump of rain and the hubs unlocked with no theatrics, wheel shakes, nothing. Just pulled ahead about 3 ft, this is kinda odd....

    4X4 Hubs Won't unlock

    Read the prev post's....my wife hauled horses all weekend and they never unlocked. I bet she backed up the 38 ft G neck a few times, but only used 4X4 once and that was to get the trailer out of the holes it sank into.

    4X4 Hubs Won't unlock

    I think I didn't get my problem across properly. The hub knob turns just fine, it's the internal part of the locking hub that's not disconnecting easily. I have yard truck's that are OLD and abused and rarely get serviced and their hubs disengage just nicely. This truck is only 3 years old and...

    4X4 Hubs Won't unlock

    Well since I got old GM's and Ford's around I'm kinda use to have them pop within a few feet and a quick steering wheel shake. This is trying my patience. The worst part is I know not every one who drives this truck will even check never mine have to crawl underneath and shake the drive shaft. I...

    4X4 Hubs Won't unlock

    Have anyone here had problems getting the 4X4 hubs to unlock? It doesn't seem to matter if the they locked automatically or were manually locked they are just down right stubborn to unlock. I do back up and cut the wheel full lock left to right and do the same going forward for about 40 ft and...

    High pitched squeal, sounds like bad turbo

    I'd look again, they're there. AFE main page under 6.4, race pipe/down pipe. PM me and we'll figure this out.

    High pitched squeal, sounds like bad turbo

    AFE, River City Diesel,....yes, to put a one piece down pipe in, yes you gata lift the cab. All after market ones I've looked at are two piece. You cut the stock one in two and pull it out, slip in the new one with a band clamp to join it, still uses the stock style ball flange if you get the 4...

    High pitched squeal, sounds like bad turbo

    Ya not the first cracked head pipe I've heard of. See if you could sweet talk em into a after market one, first off it's bigger and single wall and they're 2 piece, so ya don't have to lift the cab to put it in!!!

    Question What to buy?

    Spend the extra cash to get a GOOD tuner, one that won't hurt your truck or leave evidence so the big F will void your warranty. My suggestion is Spartan. The way to get mileage is to run a big tune DPF/CAT delete, with a light foot. Kinda doesn't make sense but it works.

    PCM Recall

    So I got my truck done, mid to late job 1 build. So I finally got around to doing a run on it last night. First off I noticed that the boost level was down running empty. 100 K it was around 5 - 7 psi until you leaned into the loud pedal then it is the same as before. Power was the same as...

    Check Engine Light

    It'll show, please drive to clean, or something like that. By that point it's very plugged and you should let it clean it's self more often or just delete it.

    Question I hate being the noob w/another exhaust " ?"

    If you do change the filter or air box do your research cause there is a lot of junk out there with misleading claims and "test results", learn what the ISO test's are and mean. Cheap filters are just that and be prepared to spend big bucks that'll out clean a factory filter. No point getting a...

    White smoke and no cleaning filter message

    Kinda confused here, your sig say's 6.0, they don't have DPF's, so what you running? If it's 6.4 go straight to the dealer, white smoke or any smoke, DPF delete not with standing, is not a good sign.

    DPF Acting Retarded

    Oh I know, there's a Spartan kit with my name on it. The only issue is there are few dealership's around here and they don't take to friendly to ditching the CAT + DPF. They have a, If I don't see the programmer, there's no problem way of looking at things. So swapping the CAT + DPF in and out...

    DPF Acting Retarded

    Well truck went in for a code check and re flash. Seems the Cleaning Exhaust just flashing on the display is because of the newest program in the ECM. Not sure if I like not knowing when the DPF is lit cause it only shows it briefly. I'll keep ya up to date if this fixed it or if it's going back...

    DPF Acting Retarded

    Ok truck went in for a EGR valve good to go right, wrong. First pull Cleaning Exhaust flashes for 5 - 8 seconds and goes off. The truck stuttered a bit in high gear then quit and wouldn't build much boast, maybe 5 psi in low RPM until it got to 2000+ while pulling an empty goose neck. Went on...

    Quick Wiring Question

    Ok I've installed the compressor and valve and the gauge into the dash lights, that went fine but still can't trace down the reverse wire without splitting open that nice small harness at the fire wall. Where is the reverse switch within the cab? Next easy question is, has anyone played around...
