Just for the sake of the topic. I found the specs in the FSM.

Best bang was what I installed is the ISSPro EV2 series. It USB programmable. Bit more pricey but comes with low pressure light, adjustable back lighting, adjustable needle reaction speed, even adjustable optional relay.

@IBMobile has the best mystery switch setup. You might want to look at his design.

I'm doing my slight changes to see if there is gains or losses above or below spec. Visibly there is loses with slightly tight valves that I now can see with being 2 thousandths tight than normal on hot days. I'm going to back down to 2 thousandths wide. Even though Cummins states a wide range of operational lash 0.006 to 0.015 intake (Stated 0.010) 0.015 to 0.030 exhaust (Stated 0.020) These are considered OK ranges according to Cummins specs.

I use the red grease that you typically find in WalMart. Been good this far...

Like I'm running 14, 17, 20, 23, 26 for timing. Then cruise timing is plus 3 with load limit of 30% right now. Bouncing 18 to 20 MPG. Those 34 inch tires are not helping. I'm getting ready to drop 31 inch tires for 30 inch tires. Better gear ratio and power.

Double check the two connectors at the valve cover on the cowling. There is a CCD data bus there. Double check your passenger side grounds being the master ground for the ECM, PCM and VP44 runs across the front of the engine to the ECM.

Neat idea. I'll have to pick up one from HF to toss in the tool box.

Well, that what I thought too. It actually the spot welds break free and the tone wheel spins or the tone wheel is too far from the sensor. Still to fix mine was to replace the right side wheel bearing to resolve the issue.

I never torque it that much. Since the ball end is tapered just need enough to seat the taper snug so it can move. Then cotter key the nut in place. The bushing end I quit running down that tight after the salt and mud sets in the bolt get rather stubborn to get back out after 200k miles. Everything is tight but not overkill. My problem is I do get the mileage out of ball joints and track bars and normal don't change them but every 150k to 200k miles. The last one I replaced (NAPA) I tighten everything super tight and fought like hell to get it back apart. Nature's thread locker had set in. (Rust!) Then the ball stud didn't want to come out even with a 6-pound sledge and pickle fork.

I found an awesome website that is legal MP3's. Just do a search for the song title. If the song is out on Youtube it will converter the song from Youtube to an MP3 for you and download. This makes it really nice for grabbing a few new songs for your trips in the morning. https://www.mp3juices.cc/

I even sell that kit in my store.

Like my truck is doing that right now. I've got to do valve seals this summer. It drips just enough oil in the cylinder to create the blue/white smoke that smells of engine oil. Every start cold or hot. Typically gone in a few seconds after starting. I'm using about a quart of oil in 7k miles. Nothing to panic about in my case. Now just for safety sake I would verify the turbo on both sides and make sure the turbo isn't leaking oil into the air stream or down the exhaust side. This has happened to a few in the past. Just take the time and check it out.

Decent and cheap in the same line is not going to happen. The best to come close to that would be the ISSPro EV1 series mechanical. https://www.dieselautopower.com/eva-2-1-16-mechanical-fuel-0-30-psi-r5604r

@Me78569 So what is the new delivery time now? Christmas? New Years 2019?

The typical daily driver can be done cold. Normally they don't expand too much. When you talking 900 HP and track stars well there is going to be a lot of heat and expansion on the valves and such. Like I'll admit I tried going back to my old 0.008 and 0.018 and now that summer heat is here the idle is a bit lopey again. This just proves what your saying has some truth. I'm going to reverse and go 0.012 and 0.022 on this next time. I could today but time is running out. I'll do it most likely on my next weekend.

I did the 5k bulbs in the Morimoto D2S and the PIAA LED driving lights are a 6k.

That mostly what the local ranchers here run is gravel roads but then dive out in a pasture to roll hay bails out. Pull back out climb to the next pasture and repeat again. Most out here flood water the pastures so it can get rather soupy for mud. Lot of the old tymers had to give up the manuals and went to automatics. This is rather harsh on automatics being they never really hit lock up for many miles and climbing or offroad in mud add the heat.

Not so great if it causes damage to the exhaust system and DPF to have the system.

Very common out here. A lot of the ranchers opted for the rubber floor mats but end up rotting the cab floors out because the amount of mud and snow they drag in. Then go home and hose the cab out and the water automatically pools under the floor mat and the rot begins.

That part is designed by the Linux structure if you an Android user. iPhone is a similar structure. Here with my Linux PC and Android Phone, you have to give permission to access particular information or modify data. For example, I want to change a configure file on my PC I have to provide a ROOT password to allow the system to alter that file. The same thing is true for Android but it assumed the user is the ROOT user and you already unlocked the phone so it left to a yes or no question. Being that on a cell phone the amount of RAM and storage is very limited most functions are stack up so yes you might be giving up call information so you can actually have one function the program requires. PC is a bit more granular permissions because of larger storage and more RAM to work with. The only thing I can say is find another app that asks less of the phone for permissions but you'll end up finding out the software is extremely limited and functions are missing.

Actually be very careful the rubber floormats are known for rusting out the bodies quicker being that they seal in more water. There is a foam pad below that holds the moisture longer. Where people with carpet tend to be more careful not to drag in all the mud and water. Where rubber floor people get sloppy and assume the rubber floor is keeping the moisture out which it won't. It will leech under the edges of the rubber flooring and wick up in the foam pad. It's worth it to lift the door trims and check yearly.

I gave up on being paranoid... Few reasons first off there is enough manpower to track everyone. Then if the tracking is so good then why can't they track down criminals? I've got all my address and phone numbers out on the internet. Still to this day everyone still asks me for my mailing address or my phone number when it's on every single page here. Go ahead and track me... Funny part by the time I get home the cellphone is nothing more than electronic brick. No cell phone signal, canyon walls screw with the GPS and not accurate even my GPS in the truck is goofy here. WiFi location reports me way off the mark. Even attempting to track my IP shows weird locations. Heck MoparMom and I both use the Life360 app to track each other. She can send me a message saying hey your need X store can you pick up Y.

235/85 R16 and 256/75 R16 are the same 31.7" tall. (+/- 2 Revs/mile) 215/85 R16 and 245/75 R16 are the same 30.5" tall (+/- 2 Revs/mile) Just helpful information on tires. The 85 series tends to be narrow side. The 75 series tend to be wide hence the first number in mm.
