I just oredered the remote keyless entry feature for my 98.5 from the dealer! The mopar part number is 82300986. The cost on it is $187.00

That's a light load! What kind of trailer do you want? --- Update to the previous post... I found out the hard way, never trust what the book says equipment weighs! The bucket that I normally run on my backhoe is a 39" wide bucket it weighs almost 1k itself! Add that to the machine plus the full fuel tank, hydraulic tank it adds up pretty dang quick!

You got the money, I got the time!!!

Dr. said last night my dad had a small stroke on the right side of his brain Sunday, possibility of him having another one within the next 48 hours. They can't really treat for the stroke for fear of causing another heart attack! Can't treat for heart attack for fear of causing stroke!

Here is my little backhoe! She weighs in about 21k! Had to step back a few feet to get it all in one pic!

I'll haul just about anything, I take my time and always check my brakes before I cut out on a trip! I replace my front brake pads yearly, adjust the rear brakes regularly! Trailer brakes are checked often as well! Matter of fact fixing to replace them on the trailer! What is crazy is I called the place where I get my trailer parts from, told them to get a price to replace the brakes and backing plates. The guy told me I would be cheaper replacing the axles instead!!! Said backing plates and brakes would run 500 per wheel, total 2 grand or I can get new axles and springs for 2200! So I guess I'll be replacing axles and springs!

The owner isn't a bit , he's alot of !!! I hauled an old 4020 john deere tractor yesterday! Had it on my mind to take pics and post them! But I didn't think about it again till I had the tractor unloaded! I will be hauling my backhoe tomorrow and will take pics of it! It weighs about 22k! Between running runs, working, and trying to keep my dad up to snuff! I feel like I'm getting OLD TIMERS...:lmao:Just getting plain forgetful lately! I looked through some pics on my phone! Found my lil backhe...tractor with backhoe attachment! Had the trailer hooked up and decided not to swap trailers so I hauled butt with it!

Sorry for your my friend! Glad your ok! Need anything let me know! My dad is only 67

I would like to say you all for the prayers!!! Looks like the tias (mini strokes ) were very minor and no major damage!!! He has some weakness in his left side!!! Will know more tomorrow!!!

One station has it here for 3.799 and station right next to it is 4.159 this afternoon! Crazy

No I did that about 7 or 8 yrs ago!

Hey everyone, I hate to ask but I need some prayers for my dad! I rushed him to the er this morning! He has had a stroke and is presently having tias which are mini strokes! Thanks in advance!!!

One of the easiest pumps to replace! I drain the coolant, loosen belt and take 2 bolts an its out!

Averaging 3.799 to 3.939 hereHere is Wynne AR I've seen prices from 3.599-4.099

I have no intentions of hauling that much again. Although I do have a couple of tractors tha im supposed to haul today that weigh about 12-17 k each

Truck and trailer weighed bout 18k!

What about dark tinted windows and upper and lower brows i'm the windshield

Ok here are a few pics of the ScangaugeII, the y cable, and I velcroed it to the top of my Edge CTS! Works great just have to make a few more setting adjustments!!!

Well according to the Arkansas Highway Police (DOT), in AR, weight is the same as a tractor trailer. ie...my 98.5 3500, pulling my 45 ft tandem dual gooseneck. I'm legally allowed to haul 66,000 lbs Breakdown 12,000 lbs steer axle20,000 lbs drive axle34,000 lbs tandem duals on trailer66,000 lbs legal weight As for how I know this! I got conned in to hauling a New Holland DC 100 LGP Dozer for a buddy! He told me that the dozer was about a 15,00 lb machine! Well I had my permits and flagged out right because it was a little over 9 foot wide! Well when I came across the weigh scales, I was told to park in the back and bring my paper work inside! As I was walking in, the DOT officer meet me halfway and said we need to look the situation over! We got to talking and he carried me inside and showed my weight and low and behold I weighed in at 62,430 lbs! I was like thats not me! I'm only supposed to be around 40,000 at the heaviest! Well I was instructed to pull back onto scales and come in again! It weighed 62,200 lbs then! I had no problem pulling it or stopping it! An I have no intentions of hauling that much again!

Oh man I didn't know that! I totally understand! Are you having any luck on getting your truck running? Need any help?

Boy I sure do wish I high a high idle fooler!!! Been sitting in the same spot now for almost 6 hours now!!! Its about 88° here!!! Wish I could let my truck idle and keep the ac good and cold! But I don't so I'm not idling for very long at a time, just long enough to cool off!

Finally got my OBDII "y" adapter in today! :hyper: I now have my new scangaugeII hooked in and running my CTS both! I'm trying to get some pics up so everyone can see! Will post them as soon as my pos phone uploads them!!!:lmao2:

I went to my local dodge dealership today!! Friend is a pretty good diesel tech! We looked up an there is a service bullentin out number 18-49-98 on Driveline Induced Vehicle Surge/Vibration! It says that the surge or vibration can be caused by driveline angles tire force variation or differential ring gear pitch line runout.

Glad to hear that! Kind of thought it might have been your alternator!

I got my new Scangauge II in today! But I can't use it just yet!:banghead: I'm waiting on my obdII y adadpter to get in:(
