    chips

    Talk to Tony Total Diesel Performance Home Page He's the one you want. I use the 40 tow for everyday driving. 80 when that little extra is called for, and I don't use the High Setting very often, mostly 'cuz I can tell the tranny doesn't like the extra power. I towed with the chip for the...

    Anyone use a power jack for their trailer?

    IF you go to Oilburners look up member argve. He has a power jack on a 31' TT and I've seen him lift the front of his trailer and the rear tires of his Dodge about a foot off the ground. He may be able to give you more info. I was impressed by the amount of power his jack had.

    When putting a car on a dolly.......

    Does the dolly have pivot points under the car tires? If not then the steering wheel needs be unlocked in the car so the wheels can turn(left-right). Car should still be in park but, steering column unlocked. If the dolly has pivots drive on, put in park, take your keys, and strap it down.

    Glow plug R/R

    IIRC I used a 1/4" drive deep socket(10mm?)and short extension(3"). The best way I found was to completely engage the socket to break the GP loose, then slide the socket up to the end of the GP hex to give you enough wiggle room to get the GP and socket past the rockers. If you leave the socket...

    door fit

    The pin is not threaded into the door jam itself, but rather into a plate inside the jam when you loosen the pin with the torx bit the whole pin and plate can be moved in or out or up and down to get the right fit. I did the ones on my truck and made the doors close so air tight you had to crack...
