I wonder if there was a way to just order the diode packs from Nations alternators?

Bingo... Here we are back around full circle just the way I see it too. Why not fix the actual issue than band-aiding over the top with add-ons. Still ask the same question. Why is it that these truck went for years without a issue and now all of a sudden requires add-on band-aids, modification, etc.? I would start back at resolving the issue at hand first. But I would start looking at better quality diode packs on the alternator. http://www.fostertruck.com/diode-pack-rectifier-bridge-for-dodge-denso-alternator.html

Now the actual story...

I've got typically MPG, Total for the Day MPG, Total for the tank MPG and a random 4th. Like right now its IAT. As for setting them go here... http://www.scangauge.com/support/user-manuals/scangaugeii-user-manuals/ Then go to page 42 and read up on setting the XGauge.

Thanks that is killer someone is making replacement replacement seat motors. http://www.2men1garage.net/index.html

Here is the article on it as well.

I'm pretty sure JAG1 will share his spot in my yard with you.

Here is JAG1 setup... Now we got to get Nick up for the summer event... Plenty of room in this park to gather.

Rubber mat might snag and ball up. JAG1 uses a slick plastic rail system to make the camper glide in. I'm not sure about the ratchet strap idea seems kind of weak?

I'm going to have to play with the tablet and desktop and see how I can sort this mess out... I'm waiting on updates for the donation plugin so we can get some of these weird issues fixed.

You might ask Dynamic here on the site. He's a trans builder...

@Me78569 You might look around there is plastic hold downs like my truck got. Much better than steel.

That's why I never built that much power... There isn't any transmission that holds up to 500 HP without serious modification. Even then the life span is very short. Having oversized tires puts even more stress on the transmission so failure is even more so common. Check around you find more transmission failures with oversized tires than stock sized.

Something to read... http://www.machinerylubrication.com/Read/59/oil-analysis-varnish

Lets say my transfer case is still going with ATF+3 and 257k miles and zero issues. @angus Download area is there you can always just re-download the files.

Got moved under The Store tab. https://mopar1973man.com/donate/ You won't be a "lost member" that function is long gone now. Left behind in the old version 3.4 software.

Not bad... One way to bring life back to old battery hold down hardware. Nice how you fab'ed the nuts on top to allow you reuse you old bolts. I will highly suggest you keep a light coating of engine oil on everything and then they will never rot again. I still surprise most folks that look at my truck at how my battery terminal and hold down hardware is still working fine. It all about keeping that oily coating on the metal parts and the acid won't touch them.

I know the feeling... Went from... And upgraded too... I like the upgraded version myself. Yeah but when your center of gravity is that much higher you not going to to be whip around the canyons here with your beast. Your right you can get into some pretty back woods areas with a slide vs. travel trailer like mine that is 31 foot long. I will admit JAG1's slide in camper is very comfy. Wet bath, nice dining area, full size fridge, good side kitchen, and nice big bed.

Imagine that the roller part that failed ?

Yeah I normally just scratch the paint not down to bare metal. Sharpie might work kind of hit miss thing. If you wash areas with solvent it works better. Alight scratch is visible but hides good.

Problem is that it would be rather expensive building an stand alone controller that can read OBDII data for this information for tach signal.

Just odd the last time I was there in person they told me the did do Cummins ECM for the Dodge Rams. Just odd to here a different story. Still in all the lift pump circuit can be repaired...

Call me in the evening I'll teach you how to do it. Super simple.

Doesn't take much to hose the truck with acid.
