Trying to find a mechanic around here that will help has been next to none!:banghead:So I decided to try and figure things out myself! Did a pressure test on the cooling system, and think I have it figured out! Pressurized the radiator to 15psi, and noticed that on the back passenger side of the egr cooler where it bolts on to the exhaust manifold, appears to be leaking. I ordered an egr delete kit, dpf delete kit, and a mini maxx programmer. I'm pretty confident that this is where all the problems are going to be. Will post pics soon, to see if y'all feel the same way!

The EFR/DPF are the root of most issues on the 6.7, hope it fixes his.

EGR cooler system always has been problems that i do seen between Dodge 6.7L and same with Ford's 6.0, 6.4 and 6.7 powerjokes!! i am glad that i own a 5.9L with no emission craps...

Well got all the parts in Monday morning, started about 1030 putting everything on. Wasn't a bad job at all. Was completely done by 1. Having a lift sure made it nice to do the PDF delete! :D:D Took it for test drive, needless to say its back on the lift :banghead: I honestly don't know how he was driving this dang truck!!!! Was driving and this thing started wobbling violently :confused:. So I put it back on the rack and waiting for more parts to be in today! Tore down the right front side, both ball joints were sloppy, the hub assembly was toast, & the u-joint on the axle was bad! Anything else I need to look at?
