    No power on hot day

    So yesterday I was driving around doing a little dog training. It was about 95 degrees out......really damn hot. I was driving the truck around and I had to make a quick stop to let the dogs out to swim in the pond and cool off. Left the truck idleing with the air on. Sat there running for about...

    Exhaust Location

    Yeah....I actually thought about doing that. I still might actually. I just worry about it being too loud for the people sitting on the passenger side.

    DEAD 6.0???

    Anyone know where I can get a dead '03 6.0? I really LOVE my truck and I am really interested in building up a 6.0. Bullet-proof internals, great cam, ported intake and exhaust, new turbo, etc, etc, blah, blah. Basically I just want something to tinker on and at the same time maybe build a kick...

    I must be getting old......

    I think the look of a MILDLY lifted truck is fantastic. :thumbs I only have a 2", but thats what I like. I don't like the skinny tires though. Looks silly to me. HOWEVER.......thats the great thing about America. I can do what I like and you can do what you like. :sweet

    Gauge readings

    Ok....so I am going to install my 3 gauge A-pillar this weekend. Was wondering what are the "normal" operating specs for each gauge? What I'm trying to say is when the truck is running, what is the normal boost reading? What is normal trans temp? What is normal exhaust temp? Thanks guys!!!

    Sorry to hear that man. Although I don't pull anything heavy, my 6.0 hasn't had any problems in 73,000 miles. This is my first diesel and it has taken some getting used to, but I love it. I will never own another gasoline powered truck again!!!!

    Cooland filter

    I also purchased the coolant filter today. Once that is installed and I have run it through a few filters, should I do a coolant flush and put in new coolant or should I just run with it? I have 73k on the original coolant now. And that is suppose to be "COOLANT" not cooland........fat finger...
