That so far is the single best mod I have done, I have it on the "acuated by brake light" mode all the time, use it in town and hwy, works pretty slick for how cheap it is :D
Thats what makes me nervous pulling people out of the ditch at random, I tell them ahead of time (wouldnt do any good anyways) that YOU hook it up and if somthing breaks on your rig its not my fault.
I second multifunction lever, sometimes when I hit my blinker left/right with my headlights on it will kill the lights for a split second, think its all the dirt and chit in there I would imagine.
My roomate drives an 04 cummin(g)s :doh: and I get the same chit day in and day out, there will allways be somebody who will talk chit about your rig no matter what you drive, welcome to the real world just gotta sit back and think up Chevy jokes -popcorn :D
Def. get you a sawzall, cut the old downpipe off about 3-4 inches off the turbo and one more cut on the bottom and it should come right out, thats what I did.:)
I had to pull a couple bolts off of the inner fender to give it enough space to pull the PCM, its really not that big of a deal, though I dont know if having the running boards there would mess things up? Just try to go in from behind the ebrake assembly
There are plenty of DIY directions out there to do it, I did it so anyone can :D Patrick is the man to talk to though, I have a few pics in my truck webshots of a few components, just set it up in your garage and throw it into your truck :sweet
I dont know if its the same on the D60's but on my rig with the 50 I have a yellow sticker on the backside of the axle upside down that says "D50" and gives the gearing "4:10" and says a few other things
Your truck has a ZF6 if its a manual, as for a shift knob, been around these forums for a while and never heard of anyone putting aftermarket knobs on, I think its just a ricer thing :D
Standard Wave Ratio's, can get a meter to check it or some of those big cobra's have them built in, want a low ratio....as for the antenna, get a Wilson...
We dont have the luxury of having a weather strip to cover the seam, but if you paint it to match it really isnt that bad. I have pyro/boost/coolant, pyro and coolant being electric and they are Sport Comp I's, pretty nice looking gauges
Yeah, its a good idea to have a spare CPS, around here IH was more expensive then Ford on CPS's (thats a first) and your typical tools, fuel filter, etc. Sounds like a pretty good buy, you should be happy with it, they are good rigs
Do what Casey said, the stock muffler is a straight through piece so its really no restriction. If I were you (and dont have to go through emission testing) knock the stock downpipe out and the Cat, it will sound good and breath a hellava lot better :sweet
Thanks Kansas, the O rings under the breather on the drivers side valve cover are blown out so oil is leaking out of there as well, ordered the O rings, of course completely wrong, send me some round one with an edge a another tiny thing, so yeah gotta run around town trying to find that. After...
Ive done that, and I dont know if its just from vibration but there is oil in front puddled of HPOP, in back puddled, and can tell that its ran down the pedistal, so I dont know if the EBPV is leaking and then moving all over the valley or what...I was gonna hook up a DIY exhaust brake, think...
Hey guys, didnt want to hijack that other thread going, but looking at my turbo pedistal I can see oil has been coming down it, and there is oil in the valley draining off the back of the block, what should I be looking for as to tighten, replace, etc....thanks.
