GPH? good question, we only measure FP w a gauge.

Me too, mines been gone four years as well!

No 17" wheels for me, way too much money to do that. I do like the 3rd gen brake upgrade tho. Most likely will just upgrade my pads. If it ain't broke, don't fix it! Thanks for your input, Dave

Thanks Jordan, I will do that, I like dealing w Geno's! Dave --- Update to the previous post... Thanks for the explanation. I'm sort of interested in the newer 6.7 VGT turbo just for that reason, superior stopping & upgraded performance Anyone on here do one yet? Michael, would you know? It's gotta be, CTD, Dave

Glad it all worked out for you. That wasn't so bad! --- Update to the previous post... Permatex, great products!

Hey Michael, Very nice thanks for posting! So what do you do if you want to coast like in eccomodding? Put it in N maybe? With your hilly terrain, an exhaust brake would be a wise investment. Were you pulling your trailer while recording? Thanks again, Dave --- Update to the previous post... Thanks for that bit of usefull info! --- Update to the previous post... Many of the TV car show guys like the Hawk pads, where does one purchase them? What do they cost?

I would realy like to do a turbo upgrade off of a 6.7! More power & better brakes too! Next year is a bigger horse trailer, we'll see what that entails, wanna keep those guys safe too! Dave --- Update to the previous post... I can get those local as well, Thanks, Dave --- Update to the previous post... Good advice, if I'm not carefull, I might learn something here. Dave

Thanks Russ for taking the time for us to check it out, interesting.I will try again on Thursday to see if they get it right this time.Dave

I will have to try that as well! Just as long as you don't say to use Windex, like in the Greek Wedding movie! Dave

SaWeet! AH64ID, your the man! But you probably know that! Dave

Are you able to figure out how to get to the bolts? Just pull down the plastic inner fender.Dave

Hi CTD drivers,I was rotating my tires last week & noticed my front brake pads are beyond the 1/2 way point. I'm usually pulling something & she likes to work, at the moment a small 2 horse trailer & a slide in trk camper.My rotors are still good, factory style, look to me like they were updated w/ the last set of pads. I stop fine w/ what I have. I was driving w a 6x12 single axle enclosed trailer w 2 ATV's inside had to panic stop in the hills of WV, went around a blind curve downhill & my wife & I were both surprised how well it stopped. My reply was that's why I wanted a 3500 dually.I have no idea what's on there, so what are you guys using?Thanks,Dave

Hi Again Russ, Did you post a link for your sw diagram? I'd like to check that out, interesting! I did go to pick up my t-connector, they got it wrong. The one Curt sent was for a standard 7 off of the rear tail lights. I thought that was going to happen! Now they ordered one for a 5th wheel hookup, this one many be correct, it's gonna cost me about $86 & change. My wife will be taking it this weekend, luckily the horse tailer has lights & she will be driving in daylight hours. I did the best I could, :shrug:Dave

If 99K is 99,000 what is 100,000? Not sure myslf now!

Wow Russ,<br><br>You are quite the historian, I enjoyed the lesson, nice read! I did think that I saw some TB lines in Nick, same stripe on the nose, color, shape. Horses are great animals, I see why man &amp; animal have bonded. They love being around people &amp; are so trusting.<br><br>A musician friend of mine hooked me up with my saddle. His brother is a saddle maker in Kentucky, land of the TB. I don't have a pad for him yet, but after the 30th we start getting 2 paychecks again. When we get caught up, I will get a pad on him w his saddle &amp; get a measurement, so cool of you to offer!<br><br>Today I teach at 2 Universities on the way to the second I will stop at Camping World &amp; pick up my t-connector, I hope they got it right, I know it's in they called me on Tuesday. So I hope for the best, I did show the guy that was ordering a pic of my setup on my cell, so he knew exactly what I was trying to purchase.<br><br>Hope your feeling well,<br>Dave<br><br>BTW, what power programmer do you have on your Cummins? I read something the you installed a Switch on it to turn off when you don't need it --- Update to the previous post... Sorry Russ, I must have taken too long to respond, went to submit & I needed to put my mane & password in, so when I got back to this it recorded all my keystrokes, sorry!

I've been trying but no luck yet! Thanks, Dave:thumb1:

I take good care of my trucks, never abuse them. I want something to last me ten years or more and not have to work on it all the time.

Wow FlagmanNice pix, I was trying to remember what an 80 Challenger looked like, nice! I've got an 86 Dodge Shelby Charger that I've had since new, covered up in my back garage w/ 14K. Should put the Historic plates on it, maybe next year! Nick is a beautiful horse, I will send a pic of my Lucky, 10 yr old Gelding Thoroughbred. I have a saddle for him but I still need a sinch, bit & bridle for him. Everytime I put a halter on him he keeps looking for the bit to go riding. It's almost always too muddy around here. He was 400 pounds under weight 2 yrs ago & I can't get the final 100lbs on him. Have him on Rice Bran stuff Max Glo I think it's called, we'll see what happens, looks like it's working. That's what they suggested I try on one of my TB pages.I need another horse trailer, wife had me convert it into a tailgate vehicle as per my opening pic. Lucky wouldn't fit in it anyway! I'm like you, gotta have a truck.Me & Lucky, Him & Jazz just hangin' out, they get along so well!Thanks for posting those gr8 pix,Dave

I know my mechanical Kubota will run & start on filtered wvo. I wouldn't do it in any colder weather than we are having now but I was running low on diesel & put in about a 1/2 gallon of straight veggie used oil. Today I added a lil more than a gallon of diesel to it & it's fine. It's the last year of the model change over 96 or 97 B7100.

Excellent!:hyper:Since everyone seems to have spare trannys laying around here. I need the inspection cover & bolts that hold it in place.Anyone have one for sale?Thanks,Dave

Thanks for the diagram & explanation guys. Stuff is getting even more complicated, just more things that can go wrong. Dave:mad:

That's quite a story. Man, you had some hard times. What goes around comes around, I take it from what you wrote!Some times, the only friends we have are the horses......HP too!Thanks,DaveI only hope I get the correct part for what I need when I get back through to pick up the part on Thursday!:banghead:

He duz? What a guy, thanks for putting that up for us Mike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No hairspray required for that one!

Hi Guys,Good news at least for me. Seems like I was giving a contradiction in terms. I went to Camping World yesterday & was looking for something to weld on my hitch extension for my chains & found a T-conector wiring kit. They had to special orded it, odd because they had them for other vehicles but not for a truck.So the term for what I have now is truck camper a slide in are the sides that pull out on the new RV's. I showed him a pic of my setup on my phone & we clarified the problem. So we'll see if it works. Hopefully it's not a plug in for the rear hitch!:banghead:There is a connection behind the left front inner plastic fender liner. There are instructions in the package so it remains to be seen!Thanks for your helpful suggestions!Dave:thumb1:
