Well, I ordered a fire truck horn and onboard air system from Air Horns of Texas. Honk...Ops

It sure will. Any suggestions for a live tool? I'm on a budget but I see the value of having such a device.Ops

back from the dead...I have a cowl CAI on my truck with the 3" flex line. I did lose about .5 MPG and reduced the EGT about 50* or so. I'd like to try it again while towing, maybe later this month..Ops

It's the older 33585, if there is a better one I'll get it.The replacement that failed in a year failed a component on the electronics board, I think it was an 0570? it meant tht the rpm sensor in the IP didn't agree with the crank sensor rpm. I'd swap it for a VE pump if it would bolt up.Ops

I'm using a Wix filter element, don't remember the P/N offhand. I change it whenever I find crud in the filter drain, or at 10K, whichever comes first. Ops

Since i didn't do a sig net, here's my fuel system:Holley Black on the frame rail, stock lines and filter, ISSPRO pressure guage with snubber, 15 psi idle, 11PSI at WOT at 3k rpm. I use two stroke oil at 1 oz per gallon, 50/50 mix of 2 stroke and PS in the winter.I ten to baby this truck, so it's not like I run the hell out of it. Ops

I had it done by a local diesel shop, with a one year warranty.

What is the estimated service life of a replacement VP44? I've had to replace a replacement after 2 years. I like the truck but I can't support that.Ops

It's a Boss hog bumper, lemme look.. http://www.bumpersandbeds.com/ HTH. Ops

Finally got the cash to upgrade the front bumper and headlights. Ended up with a Boss Hog and Anzo clear lens replacements. Not bad for an old man's truck.. Ops UPdate 8/7 - Whacked a 150 lb doe with it this evening at about 35 MPH. Only mark on it was a couple of deer hairs.. Ops

PS fluid in mine.Ops

lasted about 20k miles, and the electronics fried.Anyone ever done a class action lawsuit against either Dodge or Bosch?Ops

Yeah, it levels out fine with a 5000 lb travel trailer on it..

I'm running hankook ATM's as a summer tire, which should tell you something. they are siped all to Hades and back and work VERY well in rain and ice. they are about useless in mud and snow. they do seem to wear fairly well, minimal cupping, etc. I did notice that the seem to squirm around more when towing my 5000 lb travel trailer than my other tires.I found a set of Cooper St's almost new on Craigslist and bought them for my winter/mud season tires and they seem to work quite well. the only downside is that they are only load range D so I'm not real optimistic about tread wear. Time will tell.Ops

Wheels from Summit racing with Dodge hub covers, 305/70 Hankook ATMs. Mud tire tread just about evaporates in the summer time here.

if its not a lock/unlock problem, you need a torque converter. I recommend Goerend, but there are others.Ops
