Just double checking on replacement doors
I know that regular cab doors from a 95 fit on my 99. Regular cab and extended cab doors are different on the bottom corner like dripley said. The only difference I remember is the speaker mounting holes were different and maybe the window motor.

If you could go back in time when your truck only had 63K miles
I would park it in the garage, put on some Barry White and slowly wax it...

Snap On tools are the best
Be carful on that tool truck it's easy to get tool drunk. Combine that with "easy financing" and you'll end up with this. It was a lot shinier ten years ago.

Injectors stuck....cannot remove?
Pull the tubes and retainers then crank the engine over. You might end up with 6 holes in your hood but I guarantee they'll come out really fast.

Alternative snow plow
It definitely looks like the Meyers will be an upgrade from what you have now but I believe that upgrade will be its biggest downfall. What I mean is if it does scrape and your winging a foot of heavy snow and catch an ice ridge or anything solid the the 4 tons of cummins your driving isn't going to slow down. I'm just imagining putting a big load out on the end of the blade and how much leverage that is going to be against the 2" center mount. I think you'll find the weak link in that plow fairly easily. Better suited for an SUV in my opinion. Whats wrong with a newer conventional straight blade? A slightly used one will cost about the same as what your looking at and doesn't take up any more room. The mount is easy, just drive into it click in a few pins and a plug. As long as your driving sensibly it won't beat up your truck.

LOST POWER
With the programmer off you won't have any boost fooling which means the truck starts to defuel around 20-25 psi of boost. This could be the cause when you say it looses power mid way through passing cars since TQ management would have no affect at these speeds.

Do roll over balls go bad?
That ball also makes it nearly impossible to siphon gas...

Well safety first you can't have people out in those deadly conditions... We had a two hour delay on Tuesday because the county roads still had 12" of snow on them. What did it take to call off school up in I. Falls?- Mean While on Hoth....
Strange weather here in northern MN the last few days. Cold, windy and a bunch of snow yesterday. Then at 5 o'clock this morning leaving for work it was 34* and threatening to rain now it's 2* and everything I didn't plow is frozen rock solid. I have a love hate relationship with this winter thing.- Oil viscosity
I switched to 5w-40 at ~170,000 miles and I'm over 220,000 now. I run it year round, -30* to 100* loaded up and towing. Main reason is extended oil change intervals. The oil analysis always come back looking good. But as with any oil debate you need to do what works best for you, and gives you that warm fuzzy feeling inside.- Merry Christmas
Cold windy snow and sleet here but there's plenty of cold beer and aroma of turkey so life is good.- Alternative snow plow
Fa la la la la.... Are all the liquor/grocery stores sold out yet?- shake between 25 and 35 mph

How long do the bulbs usually last?- Squeaky Clutch Pedal
I used it once as a last ditch effort to get a very very stuck and broken spark plug out of an old inline 6. I got the engine up to temp then emptied most of the can right on the end of the plug. I figured it would come out or the head would crack and to my surprise it actually came out.- Squeaky Clutch Pedal
