    Winter cover

    I live in Nebraska and it tends to get pretty cold in the winter. I have been looking at these front end winter covers. Does anyone else on this forum use one? I am just curious as to if they really work or not and if there are any negatives about them?

    Question Trading '03 for '08 or newer.......

    .......so I am thinking of "upgrading" my current '03 6.0 and getting an '08-'10 6.4. I haven't done much research on the 6.4's, but reading through some of the posts, it seems as though most people are happy with them except for the mileage. I have the EGR delete, upgraded turbo, new FICM and...

    Upgrades!!!

    I am being told by a few other people that I may want to think about a Regulated fuel return system if I do all this. Benefits? Do I need? If I have the air dog, do I need?

    Questions about 6.0L 2004 HD F250

    We've said it before and we'll say it again....the reason the 6.0 seems to have problems is because that is all you hear about. I have 120K on my 2003 6.0 with no issues. The price seems high though, you could go spend $10k more and get a brand new one with full warranty. And by 12ft...

    DANG! Brakes and shocks already!!!

    What part of Canada do you live in? I head to Saskatchewan every other year on hunting trips and from the roads I have driven on up there, I can see how shocks, brakes, tires, suspension, etc coudl wear out quickly up there. There is no smooth road up there, the winters are harsh, alot fo the...

    AC and cold rush

    I have that valve stock, but I haven't traced the vacuum line to see what is powering it now. So the cold rush up grade that deiselsite sells connects to that valve......what does it do that the stock setup does do already? I'm easily confused........:dizzy

    AC and cold rush

    Ok..so I am not trying to diss our sponsor, but I really don't want to drop $100 to stop coolant from going to the heater core in the summer. Is there a "shade tree mechanic" version of this mod? Can I just install a regular ball valve in the coolant line and close it in the summer and open it...

    Question What did you do to your truck today?

    Cleaned it inside and out. Did the yearly cheap spray paint job and made the wheel wheels look all pretty. That rusty frame, springs, shackles, etc look much better with a coat of flat black on them!!! :cool:

    Question Post EGR Delete Survey

    I will be doing this at the frist of the year. I am going to have the EGR delete done, head studs, new turbo, Airdog and get the SCT. Then hopefully a little down the road an upgraded intercooler and tranny upgrade. I have been going back and forth on weather to get a new truck or just...

    Why Cummins conversion????

    Yeah, I am thinking for the money, I would rather just keep things as they are and upgrade. Its a neat conversion, but I don't like the idea of meshing electronics and such.

    Why Cummins conversion????

    OK....I may be missing something, but if someone has the answer...please explain it to me. Is it really that much better to go through the time, effort and money to swap a cummins engine into our SD's? I was just over at DESTROKED.com and their latest conversion was a guys '09 SD. Are the...

    New turbo....need injectors?

    Ok..so I am going to do an EGR delete and headstuds. I am also thinking of updating the turbo with the Garrett Powermax 63.5mm. I however do not want to spend the money on different injectors. Is this crazy? Is it even worth upgrading the turbo and leaving the stock injectors? Would it be worth...
