    up s*** creek...

    I agree with Tail_Gunner, when my alternator went out I had some pretty crazy things happening when the batterys started losing charge. Entire dashboard went out, climate control system, stereo and the ABS light would come on. :2c

    Drained Diesel Fuel Question

    Ok I have a question. The last time I drained my HFCM and changed filters I had water in my fuel. I wound up draining twice during this and have wound up with 2 mason jars full of diesel fuel. I attepted to take it down to the same place I take my oil after I change it (local repair shop...

    egt and boost guages

    If it is an 04 or older then they typically don't come with these except tranny but I would not trust that one. You can get the whole ISSPRO 3 gauge pack (Pyro, Tranny, Boost) & A pillar package (which includes everything you need to install) for around $300. Plus, they look darn good...

    Replace grab handle with gauge panel?

    Are they that much different? If you don't see them at DieselManor's site give Dave a ring there, he is a huge help. I bought mine from him and I must say he has been great to work with. :thumbs

    Torqueshift Tow/Haul & Heavy Traffic

    Yes, I can get it to drop down, but like you said not all the time. People behind me must think I am driving a manual shift :p I am almost afraid sometimes that someone is going to rear-end me because I am not using my brake lights! I also love coming down me hill to my house in T/H mode at...

    Torqueshift Tow/Haul & Heavy Traffic

    I find myself using the 'tow/haul' mode a lot when I am in heavy rushhour traffic here in Atlanta :drive (not towing or hauling anything). It is just easier to stop this 8000/lb brute using the engine/brake combo in bumper to bumper traffic:guns: . I also use the brakes less (less pad wear...

    Replace grab handle with gauge panel?

    If you are going around a sharp left turning curve (like in my neighborhood) you can't see very well and have to lean to the right. Whatabudro, what did your face look like after that? :eek:

    Replace grab handle with gauge panel?

    I'll second the blind spot comment. However, I still love the location and it looks awesome there. I got the Pyro, Trans temp, and Turbo boost guages.This was one of those, "Honey I got have these guages before I pull that new camper, I might blow somethin' up" items.:p Seriously though, it...

    Water in fuel; Question

    Thanks for your reponses so far! :sweet This morning I began my laborious drive into the office 30 miles round trip in Atlanta (not fun). I crank her up and drive my son to the bus stop, idleing waiting for the bus and fully expecting the WIF light to come on. Nothing! I leave the bus stop...

    Water in fuel; Question

    Hey guys! My 'WIF' came on for the first time since I have owned the vehicle. I immediatly drained the fuel from the HFCM. There definately was some water in there. I let it drain until the flow stopped. Went for a test drive and about 5 min. of driving the WIF came back on! I drained the...

    Do you see the problem?

    I snapped a few pix of the underneath of my X this morning to show the Timbren Load boosters and Helwig rear anti-sway bar. Something in one of the pix caught my eye. Can you spot the problem? :eek: Fixed not though :sweet

    03/04 Harness Recall -

    I have over 20k miles on mine since I had the entire engine wiring harness replaced, including the FICM. I have not had any more problems with bucking, jerking or stalling since then. Definately worth getting done if you are have those problems. I absolutely love my 6.0 now!:thumbs

    Today is the last day...

    Not towing my trailer on a trip to Tampa from Atlanta I averaged 19-21 mpg. In rush-hour traffic here in Atlanta I get around 14-15. Hauling my 10k # trailer it comes in at between 11-13 depending on the grades I am climbing. When I drive it into the mountains it really gets thirsty, but I'll...

    Today is the last day...

    No doubt! Tell me which one of these so-called-HiBird SUVs are going to tow my 11,000 pound trailer! Hell, for that matter, tell me which foreign make SUV is going to tow it even with their biggest engine! Nissan has the closest thing but the frame, suspension and brakes are no match for most...

    Today is the last day...

    It's just a cryin shame! To me the biggest problem in this country is there are too many small groups of snivelin idiots that DON'T get the whole story on issues before they start their little protests, marches and lobbying. People look at me like :eek: when I tell them the mileage my X gets...

    What speed are you towing at?

    Yep, I found it hard to believe when I bought it and even harder to believe when I weighed if for myself on a CAT scale. Factory states the dry weight at 7,900/lbs. (pre A/C, Propane, tanks empty(all 4 of them)). GVWR on the trailer is 10,900#. It is aluminum frame construction with...

    Changed over to Rotella 5-40 synthetic.

    I'm planning to do a oil change this weekend. I bought 3 five quart jugs of Mobile 1 SUV at $19.95 a jug :eek: How long will I be able to go before I have to change my oil out running the Mobile 1. I told the wife I would be saving some money by changing my own oil and when I came home from...
