Throaty, Spooly 2nd gen
Only if you have full length 3" or 4" exhaust system. If the exhaust pipe is shorten or dumps early or under the truck is still going to drone. Bigger the exhaust pipe the more chance of drone.

30 WT oil
Personally myself i run 15w-40 even with minus winter weather. No issues. Even unplugged. Matter of fact my block heater cord failed years ago.

automatic transmission late shift
Like JAG1 found out as well even going from 265/75 R16 to 235/85 R16 there is another change with acceleration factor more so. But just getting to 31" tire helps a bunch. Like as my transmission is breaking in for the 1996 Dodge Ram 1500 it settling down down and needs to have a minor adjustment. I might add just a bit of slack to mine. I'm glad the family here could resolve your issue.

No Cruise Control?
Most likely got a hole in the body of the cruise control motor or the vacuum line rotted off.

I done a Diamond Eye 4" on a 1995 Dodge turned out awesome with muffler. The Diamond Eye muffler is a straight through like mine is and its still got a bit of noise but no drone and nice cruising with.

I'm in it for the long run. Why not take care of your truck. You'd be really surprised to see how much is still OEM parts on my truck.

Brake shudder at higher speeds
Myself I use the cheapest pads I can get less metallics the better. I'm still running all OEM brake parts and did my first brake job at 185k. Exhaust brakes really do help a bunch.

Having trouble getting my Scanguage calibrated
None that I know of. Soldering welds the wires together and there is lower chance of signal loss. Because it would still bind the wires together and the heat shrink would seal the connection. Yes soldering is better but with limited room and access soldering is tough.

Sums it up for me
- what grease to use where.
Anything that has a zerk fitting. Then the things that don't have zerk fitting I've got a true grease needle. I can carefully insert to the rubber boot and refill boot with grease it fills out not swells. Being you do this method of greasing you can't have any pressure inside the boot other than that grease weeps back out. So far I've still running factory OEM tire rod end and sway bar links.- HY/HX swap
Typo?? H1C Turbo doesn't have a wastegate also its 21cm2 exhaust housing. HX35 is a 12cm2 with a wastegate.- Having trouble getting my Scanguage calibrated
Bad idea. Good way to create weak ground later. I neer hook anything to the battery. Being that all wiring is typically crimp the acid will find it's way into the copper core of the wire and rot it out. Engine block is my first choice (Best ground). Fender shield is by next choice still good. Never directly to the battery.- UDC tuning for vp trucks!!??
Thank you bring that video forward. I knew that Stainless made over 1000 HP on fuel only on VP44.- Having trouble getting my Scanguage calibrated
Old information on my box was only level 1 would do anything even if you increased levels there was no more fuel but the timing map changed. So you can still use all the other setting just that there is no more fuel than what the CANBus can make.- UDC tuning for vp trucks!!??
I would say BlueChip or Quadzilla would be the biggest modules that could stress the pump. Bluechip more so... http://www.bluechipdiesel.com/redline_box.html- High idle installed
Best to set the mode of high idle before starting. Then after its starting ramping up you may change mode to MPG or OFF. The only mode you can leave for extended time is 6 CYL this mode will not cancel by coolant temperature. This will keep it from canceling for times like jumping starting another vehicle. But if you start with 6 CYL and then flip to OFF after ramping occurs it will cancel normally with coolant temperature.- Having trouble getting my Scanguage calibrated
I used a manifold bolt. Nothing special...- Having trouble getting my Scanguage calibrated
That's all I did...- Right front parking lamp turns on with underhood lamp
Might check the grounds for both the under hood light and the turn signal might find out it's the same one (guessin').- Normal Blowby
