Im no good at it either.

What about codes? I dont think mine set off the CEL everytime it acted up.

I put grease on the crossmember and after I felt the hit there was grease on the draglink that hooks to the pitman arm. I think its a combo of a heavy bumper/winch and 250k on springs. It started sagging a little to the passenger side and its just to close to the crossmember. Im gonna swap my springs around and see if I get a lean to the driver side, if so I will just order a set of lift springs. If not im gonna have to dig deaper. I have measured 10 different ways and cant figure out why its leaning. Its only about 1/2" but its noticable.

Marble, do you have a winch too?

Arent the 12v shifters different too? I dont know if you can bolt up a 98+ shifter to a 12v case. I have heard the shift pattern is different also.

There was a guy on CF a few weeks agao with a good block for $50 before he scrapped it, I doubt if he still has it though. There is a wrecking yard in Canton Texas called Meyer's and he usually has complete engine's I dont know how much shipping would be for one though. http://myersautosalvage.com/

I would try to find a good low mileage 24v or even a p-pumped 12v.

Thanks guys, I found ISX's video on this a few minutes after I posted this.

One step forward, two steps back.....Pulled my water pump today to flush my engine out and when I put it back on it was leaking from the weep hole and squeeling something awefull, never a drip before but anyway, got a new one and its still squeeling so I guess im gonna change the tensioner pulley tomorrow. How does the unit come off and am I gonna need any special tools getting the pulley off?

My book says 27 ft pounds.

I like the nose down a little too but with my bumper and winch my springs have taken a beating. When I hit a good dip in the road my draglink is hitting the crossmember under the oil pan so I want to raise it just a little.

His is a 3rd gen and your second gen probably ahsnt had the high idle enabled. You can get the dealer to load it or hook up a smarty. Mike has the TSB to take to your dealer somewhere around here.

This is the kit I want, have any pics of the truck with it on?

My 03 did the same thing. I think you can manually adjust it up and down with the cruise buttons on an 05 too.

Been getting a puff of white smoke still so I dug into the truck today. Just easy stuff but checked the exhaust side of the turbo and it was dry so I checked the valves again. I only have about 300 miles since I set them last and all were perfect except #5, I set it to 10 and 20 and it was at 12 and 17. I dont know whats going on because I know it was dead on when I set them. I set it back to 10-20 and will check again in a few hundred miles.

Welcome to the family!

That is flat out gettin it!

Top gun customz makes a 1" level that I would like to get but my passenger side is sagging a little so I might just put some 2" springs on.

Did you get the elk with your truck or a good shot?

What is bottom tapping?

Are ARP the top name to go with on studs? Who is the best to buy from?

My grandpa has had an ez for 5-6 years with zero problems. Maybe they dont make like they used to?

I have heard a few folks on the CF fill their filter housing up with this crap when they change the fuel filter.

Have you contacted edge about it?

Nope, what is it supposed to do?
