You mention s03 a few times as the only tune you recomend to run. Does it differ from what's mentioned above. Why is tm2 so weird I couldnt pull over fast enough to change it? My mind was thinking TV cable came unhooked somehow. Though if cable was unhooked it would shift sooner. I doubt I'll see any high tempts. I'm use to seei g high temps I drive by the gauge anyways. What I dont want to do is blow the head gasket pulling a grade. I have been keeping rs up more. My tranny I can kinda lug around like a manual lugging its probly a bad habit to get into anyways even without the s03 on. I do want a quad I like to tinker so that would be right up my alley. I'll try s03 tomorrow like I think you advice and may do some testing on even numbers though I doubt t I'll see much there. Fuel only tunes. Thanks again for the advice it's all confusing and interesting seeing how trying different things effects the driving characteristics

Hitting the freeway from boise ti mtn home Switched to set same revo settings. Oddly 5 is more aggressive down low. Just switched back to. Gona cruise home. I like the settings I'm at so I'm trying the different od numbers. Sw 5 tm4 t3 d3 ti smokey throttle felt weird shifts off to. Sw7 feels better all around noticably less smoke. I do see a quad in the future. Hoping to find a all around setting for now in s03 that I'm happy with and comfortable towing. Might need two settings. One for towing and empty.

I might try s03 with settings maxed pr st the upper end I am on sw7 tm 4 t2 duration 3 now. Tm 3 seemed kinda sluggish, well see if 4 livings it up just a touch. Keeping timing st 2 for now and upper end feels good with duration at 3 Tm at 4 compared to tm3 produced less smoke right off an idle going stop light to stop light. Quicker through the gears using moderate to light throttle. Sometimes almost no smoke. Didnt get on it much just drive normal. With tm4 timing2 d3 on sw7. Still be a head gasket killer(towing)? So far I like these settings on sw7. I'll try these same settings on sw5 next. Thanks for all the replies and and advice Was a good day. Messing with tunes and fabbing parts

Sw7 tm3 t3 d3 Cruise control on ,psi 8-10 slight surging but livable. Lots of giddy up passing Egt tunning 750-800. Fair amount of haze/smoke accelerating to 85 passing So far liking this. Hitting stop and go traffic soon to see off idle smoke Went through 4 green lights. That almost never happens. From what I saw it roll black easily but cruising smoke is reduced. Dow shifted to second to keep from plugging around 25mph. Rpm 1800 will smoke but cleans out very fast

Woah. Tm at 2 undrivable. Light throttle had to let off to make all shifts. Would not shift through the gears unless I let of. Setting to 3 now um maybe 4.. Loading tm 4 t3 d3 sw7 now Catcher7 Tm4 timing3 d3 Shifts well quick, lots of smoke Trying tm3 timing2 left duration at3. Loading torch and hoses in truck nowdark rainy Tm3 did reduce the light switch throttle alot. Didnt get on it much to tell what the butt dyno reads. Going to put a few hundred miles on tomorrow on catcher 7 at tm3 tw duration 3 and see what I think. Not sure what was up with tourge management 2. Wont ve trying that again.

Now 7 Tm2 timing 3 duration 3. Trying to see if revo settings do much Read 4 pages in the other thread. If I understand right torque management low numbers will fuel less off idle.

Loading #5 Adjust options set set to below. I think Torque management 4 Injection timing 3 Duration 3

Loading #3 right now

You got me scared. Lol I saw studs arp for 161 and theres up to 400. I'll have to do more research on studs. Maybe the arp I saw were for a different application. Trust me I want a quad. I might just get rid of both the s03 and superchips and do a turbo. Turbo I have no idea. 7x09 now but I could go 7x10 easily. Later on. What turbo would you recommend to have growing room over 7x09 I injectors

I asked because a quick search showed arp was a cheaper option . I used arp on my billet flex plate. Not needed but I did anyways

Arp head studs?

You like vco better? I've got know idea about poppin that's freak to me Popping at 320bar is better than 305? I dont think I get near 14 towing. Though when our fuel bill is 4k a month it's easy to not care. Our big cam cummins gets about 6.

Ok. Gotcha. I'm normally 2200rpm and under

Even if I'm not seeing more psi. Light switch is a perfect description. I'll definitely mess with 3 not sure I like 5 out cruising

Actually I think the tie rod ends are all the same taper. But older than 01 needs to ream pitman arm taper to match 01-13 taper. I could very well be wrong. I'm not 100% sure what taper is on 98-99 pitman hd steering I think you may be right. These will help, ruff stuff also has the correct reamer. But its spendy. Looks like the steering is only bolt on for 01 02 maybe 00. https://www.ruffstuffspecialties.com/catalog/INSSTEER.html

Rolling through Craig's list see a s03 for 250. It's an older add he says he still has it. I'm like ****. I ask if I can take the programmer for a spin. Get it loaded on 9 and he rides with me. Get out on street and stand on it , I'm like **** I wasnt expecting that. Hes like what turbo is that it whistles he thought it was something cooler then a stock hy35. Pretty much roll around the block. Pay him and we go on our merry way. 7x09 injectors + s03 = fun

Nice. I priced the steering upgrade kit at dodge dealership they quoted me 850 bucks. I said thank you and walked out. That's a 500 dollar mark up over what we can order it for.

Pressure seems to be below stock. I dont like seeing that . I think idle should be 50-60 then climb to 90-100 wot. 20psi to me doesnt sound good. What is psi converter locked with your foot on the floor? I'd make sure the TV cable doesnt have any slack in it. Then I'd make sure at wot tv arm doesnt have travel left. If you can move TV arm more by hand at wot I'd tighten cable till it pulls the arm as far as it can possibly travel. This will ensure your building pressure as pressure rises as you push the throttle down further. I think spec is wot shifts at 2700-2800 less pressure will shift sooner more later

I cut rockers out and welded in a 2x8x3/16 tube on my jeep. I dont think ive i seen this done on a 2nd gen but maybe I've often thought about doing this on the truck. Mainly just for fun. If my truck was rusty I'd be all over it.

I feel that way about Luke's links. Bandaid on shitty joints. I agree the scissor steering does work. Mines still on at 292k. But it wont be going back on when there are better options when it's time to replace and trust me time time. I dont mind the tunning and modding to upgrade when it's time to replace and repair. Guys dont for get about the 98,99 HD or snow plow steering. I've yet to tie each tire together with a solid bar so I don't know what adjustments will be required. Not sure if I'll do the 03-13 upgrade steering or 98 99 hd steering they're basically the same.

What track bar is that. Any bump steer? That's a much much better steering then the scissor steering. Is that a mopar 03-13 steering kit or the moog. I've been debating getti g the moog steering ti save a few bucks

Take your ball joints out of package on parts store counter. Make sure all stems are tight. If the stem flops around tell them you dont want that one. I did mine last winter. And had to cull one back while in the store. 5 years ago I changed driver side unit bearing then a month ago the passenger. Ran each side till it melted the sensor. Gota get my money's worth right. ;) All parts now days are junk, doesnt matter where they come from

Sweet. I've been debating alot. On dedicated mig or multi machine like the miller 215 rebel215 or go dedicated and do a esab 235. Miller252. The vulcans have good reviews to hobbyists are stepping it up a notch latly I tend to play with sticks in the feild most of the time so I haven't gave a new mig machine much thought in awhile.

I spent 50 bucks on silver star ultra bulbs and have been impressed. I also polished grunch of factor headlight lense. I'm sure they dont compare to 300 dollar lights but made a huge improvement on my truck. Now I just need to do mod so lows stay on with the highs. https://www.amazon.com/SYLVANIA-SilverStar-Performance-Headlight-Contains/dp/B000M5UD1E
