Oil Pressure Running High
You might ought to look at your sensor harness and be sure it is a 3 wire sensor. The 02's have a one wire switch. Just not sure whether Dodge made the change on the late 01's or the early 02's. Mine is an early 02 and has the one wire switch.

Oil Pressure Running High
Well long time no here from you. I suppose that means the truck has been running hot, straight and normal. There is port on the of the filter bracket that you can connect a gauge to. Just remove the plug and hook it up. Thatbwil work idleing, if you want to drive it and check you will uave to run a hose of some sort I think most any of the box stores will have what you in a sensor. BWD or Standard Motor products is usually what they have. I have a little of both on mine and so far so good. I am sure Cummins has them too. As far as who's is better I dont know.

Blower motor
I know I will have to get new buckets. The wife's 06 Dakota had buckets with clear lenses and halogen bulbs. They had a small cap, for lack of a better term, over the end ofmthe bulb. Man those things put out the light. They also had a cut off similar to what I have seen on the high dollar lights I have seen here. I have seen the buckets that fit second gens that look like hers even with the little, just not sure what results they woud deliver. I would hate to spend 100 to 150 bucks on new ones just to be disappointed. But I am going to bite the bullett one day and see what happens.

Got to agree on the quad being high. I am sitting idleing right now at about 240* on my Isspro. Saw near the same results on my Banks gauge when it used to work. I have no Quad to compare it too.

I read your posts about the leds you were putting in and while on Amazon looking at their quick deals came across a pair that were cylindrical with a projectormike center. 20 bucks on sale for15 for the pair and free 2 day shipping so I ordered them on friday and they showed up on Sunday which surprised me. Well worth the money if they last. Now to find 2 headlights that good for a 100 bucks that dont blind everyone that looks at them. About tired of seeing those type on the highway. Some of them are on fairy new vehicles.

I concur. Super elevations are easier to understand for me also.

I also added two LED lights in the back up sockets. I can now see about 35 feet versus the 5 with the incandescents. Not the same as the lights some of y'all have installed but for 15 bucks it was well worth it.

Dinner with the Chicken Man
Yes it is. The idea is actually came from TGIF. I built 4 of them many years back. A lot of the wood came from them too. You step on Burger King tile coming in the front door onto Longhorn Steak House tile in the foyer and look at CFA tile on the kitchen walls. I have several areas like that in the house.

Blower motor
Had bearing in the blower motor thats been chirping to me on and off for a while. So this weekend I finally swapped it and the resistor out. Sure made a nice difference in the air flow. The old was one I replaced the OE with about 9or 10 years. The shaft was fairly tight and I am sure it took some extea power to turn. Anyway the extra air flow is nice to have back.

Help me understand this Taraf Business with China and others....
Well said. Politicians have talked about for a long but this the first big challenge to them. Should have happened many years ago.

Is my quadzilla adrenaline v2 gone south
If runs right with the Quad disconnected I would be talking to Quadzilla. I am sure they be happy to test it for you. If it is still under warranty they should fix. I would give them a call.

Vibration after Southbend Dual Disc Clutch installed
Good you have someone to trust. Sounds like you might have time to heal too.

That does suck. Is the installer helping with any of this? Who do you have building the tranny?

where to find 2WD front ABS sensors for 3500?
They used to send me a code every 3 months or so in a news letter, but not any more. Have to find on the internet as mentioned above.

Front Brakes
I lost one around 40 mph. Cant imagine that happening at freeway speeds.

I do like this thing. The diesel bros would be proud of that, but they would have squeezed a 12v in it. It is nicely done. I had custom deluxe a good while. The body is the only thing mine had in common with yours.

I cant imagine owning that truck when gas was 4+ bucks a gallon. Towing i got 4 to 5 mpg. Had to fill it up evety 150 miles or so when relocating the 5th wheel. It did have good power but it could not pass a gas station.

I only 12 or 13 out of 96 with the V10. 3:55 gears with 245s on it.

Front Brakes
The e brakes work much at rpm especially with a load on. I can mine at 23k with the 5th wheel on down a 6% grade in 4th and barely use the service brakes. I am turning about 2400 rpm during this descent. How many miles do drive in those 8 to 10 years? @Evan

Failed MAP cause low power?
If you took the EZ off thats why you got the 234 code. The EZ did boost fooling so you can build more pressure. With out it the ECM will defuel the engine once you pass 20 or so psi of boost. I would replace the actuator too. But do the MAP and see how that does and then tackle you other issues.

So many tow mirrors to choose from.
When I installed mine the the upper bolt was too long and had to cut off so the door panel would fit. Shortness was not a factor 6 or 7 years ago.
