Tires: Federal Couragia MTs - review
Got to remember that you have more weight per square inch of tread now compared to the wide face tires so that aggressive pattern will dig in and bite more in soft ground.

Ac work
Compressor cycling tells me you might be short on freon yet. You should be able to rev the engine to 1,500 RPM and hold for a period of time and the compressor should stay going. If the compressor is dropping out I would recheck the pressures again and might add some more freon. Because I hate to say it but I drive my truck not leave it sit and idle with A/C so the flow and pressure will change at road speed. Now also remember you sitting and idling there is no cold air flowing through the condenser so the high side pressure will rise because of this fact. I typically aim for 30-35 PSI on the low side at 1,500-1,800 RPM's this is the bottom of the low side switch and should stay on as long as the pressure doesn't fall more...

Oil Pressure
That raises a valid point... I know he had it flash within the last year or so...

Oil Pressure
Same sensor or different? If its your old sensor I would say tighter tolerenaces... Oil regulator jamming on the old engine (big plug on the oil filter housing).

lift kit for 2001
I had to think about this a bit but I installed a leveling kit on a 04 Dodge awhile back and used the stock shocks as well but just used the leveling spacers for the springs... Owner loved it...

What to do now?
Well I'm here but hiding in the back room of the server writing caching scripts... The best I can say is the master ground on the driver side feeds the ECM. So pull the ECM connector and the Crank sensor connector and check ground lead and the 5V wires for OHM's anything over 5 ohms is a fail. You had meantion the offset of ground voltage anf the 0.2 or greater is a fail so back track the grounds. ECM ground is feed by the G115 lead back to the driver side cable.

Low Fuel Pressure Warning?
Most all low fuel pressure lights like even the Cummins one doesn't trip till 3.5 PSI... Even most of the aftermarket don't trip till 5 PSI which is still too low... If your going to build a low pressure setup find a Hobbs Switch that is adjust able and set it for 8-9 PSI for trip... Snagged this pic from another site but the principal is the same just use a adjustable Hobbs switch and adjust it for your low point 8-9 PSI and your good.

Oil Change
Staratapore filters actually have to water separating media within. But I can't speak for the other filters... Like Wix and NAPA both are just paper elements and can't separate water from the fuel it allows it to pass.
-
What to do now?
Hmmm... Unplug the ECM and the Crank sensor plug and test the wiring between the two plugs should be 5 ohms or less. Double check the connector too be sure the contacts inside are not all wore out and getting a good grip on the pins of the crank sensor. Remember without the crank sensor showing RPM's there is no alternator charge...

hydro boost leak
Well I would say double check the line make sure its not cracked or damaged. Then check the parts that its screwing into and make sure the holes are clean and the body is not cracked. I would try again with a fresh o-ring and just seat the nuts and lightly torque them.

hydro boost leak
Is there debris in the holes? Is the tube deformed? Are you over-tightening the nuts?
