Which "Free Spin Hub Kit" ???
I've got just over 11,000 miles on the SpynTec "freespin" hub kit now; and IMHO, it's the cat's dupa!!! I've only had to use 4WD a few times since install, so getting out of the truck isn't a big deal to lock the hubs. Besides, if'n you know you're gonna need 4WD, you just lock the hubs prior to your needing 4WD and then it's just like OEM..........just throw the lever and shazam, 4WD!!!!!:2cents:When my Bud JD and I installed the kit, on the drive out to his house, my truck turned 169,000 miles. On my way back from an Arkansas duck hunting trip, Mighty Whitey rolled to 180,000 miles. So that's 11,000 miles in about 5.5 months. I can honestly say now that I truly believe I've picked up at least 1mpg with this install.On the ride down to Arkansas, Mighty Whitey got 20.9mpg running about 68mph. I filled up down there before the low fuel idiot light came on also...........had 622.xx miles on that tank. We hunted 3 days down there and I headed home on Friday. Made it to my parents house (about 60 miles from my house) and had 640 miles on that tank. Filled up near the P's and that tank got me 19.6mpg running the same speed, but in Arkansas, had a lot of idle time to clear the snow and ice off the windshield!!!Prior to the install, this time of year, I have a hard time getting 19mpg on the Interstates. That, plus the slight increase driving around suburbia has me believing the SpinTec kit has improved the mileage Mighty Whitey gets with my Grandpa style of driving!!!

New tires, Mike??? They don't look like the little "pizza cutters" you normally run in the summer.:shrug:Also, I hope you's guys were resting those saw bars on your boot tops or a piece of wood, and not the gravel drive!!!!!:soap:Nice "load"!!! I'm jealous!! What species of wood is that???? The ash and box elder I've gotten around here is pretty darn heavy in that sized round. I can barely lift them. Oak, hickory, hedge.........two people to move those sized rounds unless you "noodled" them in half. Curious!!- D-Max gets spanked!
I cannot believe that I just wasted 30 minutes of my life reading a bunch posts of teenie-bopper duramax crybabies!!!! OMG!!!!! I don't care what happened to either!!!!! Twas funny though!!!! Even the guys I know with duramaxes, won't do that with a Cummins because of the front end weight!!!! It's hard to tow an 1100lb. anchor on the front axle when it's in 4 Low!!!!- Guns.....
I don't buy the "loaner" description at all. IMHO, it's a code word the media uses to make the perpetrator "an outsider/not like us" type person. Heck; shyness and being introverted can, and have been, construed as being "loaner types". I'm a loaner. I don't like crowds. I do my own thing regardless of what other think often. I like to drive without the radio on...........to be alone with my own thoughts. This generation that has to "zone out" with stuff plugged into their ears, or stare at a little screen on their phone or other device is quite telling. I don't get it!!!???- Guns.....
All I know; is that the more you infringe/inhibit law abiding gun owners the freedom that the 2nd amendment provides........................the more there are "rampages" like what just happened in CT!!!!If the school hadn't been a "GUN FREE ZONE", I cannot help but wonder if the outcome wouldn't have been different!!!! The only thing the "No Guns" signs provide is a "TARGET RICH ENVIRONMENT" for the psychos, et. al. in our society.But we ususally get the "knee jerk" reaction to this by our "so-called leaders"...............gun=evil.............must ban guns!!!!!!!!:cookoo:How many more decades of this failed logic do we need to adhere by??!!!!:banghead:- TPS question
The only that I can remember from my Edge days was the "%Load" that I could display on the "Attitude" screen. From what I remember; that was the % of "fueling" that the "box" was doing at the time.It sure does sound like you've got a faulty connection somewhere.I dunno how to fix it either, because you said it was the same with 2 different units!!!! I dunno man!!:banghead:- M I A!
- M I A!
You were gone???- TPS question
What year truck do you have????? Fill out a signature so we know. When I ran the Edge J w/A, there was no connection at all for the TPS. TPS is Throttle Position Sensor, correct???- You're a "Real" Fire Wood Burner if.........................
Hey MnTom, Just letting you know that I plagiarized/cut and pasted that picture to several other forums I go to!!!! Twas too good not to!! The responses have been "priceless"!!!! Most of them cannot be forwarded here verbatim because of the filter............. I'm still laughing just at the thought of that picture!!!!- You're a "Real" Fire Wood Burner if.........................

Question with no answer.............yet!!!!! You're a "Real" fire wood burner if.......... Your cell phone ringtone is a chainsaw running thru a big round!! Instead of watching mindless TV, you star at your burning wood stove for hours!!- I Hate My Post Office
What's wrong with you???? That's not in the job description...............to BS with customers!!!!! It's no wonder you're not working the front counter any longer!!!!! How much "undelivered" mail do you have hidden in your basement????- M73M's Baby Picture
That's because you've got "good hair"!! Try out a mullet with almost a full horseshoe of hair on your head!!!! Were I to try a mullet again; I'd almost have as bad a "comb-over" as Donald Trump!!!!!!- I Hate My Post Office
Maybe say it like you're "going postal" next time!!! That'll get their attention!- M73M's Baby Picture

Chuck Norris buys his firewood from you.You think hurricanes have good points.You ambulance chase the local tree services.- You're a "Real" Fire Wood Burner if.........................
You get invited to dinner and you keep checking out the dead tree in the back yard.You set up a "web cam" at work to check on your fire at home.Mike Only Here...............When you try to use your "multi-meter" as a "moisturemeter" on your firewod!!When you have "burning wood" and don't need medical assistance.When your wood is 16" long, and it's only average length.When you've been cutting so long, you use a hollow log for a toilet.- You're a "Real" Fire Wood Burner if.........................
Come On Guys; Let's Keep This Going....................You're a real wood burner if.....The gas man gives you the "finger" after checking your meter!!When "getting wood" has more than one meaning.When your parents visit and say; "I didn't know you sold wood."When "morning wood", means your loading the stove!!When you and you fellow wood burners get together and talk about each others "wood"!!The local squirrels think "WTF"!!!!- What a slap in the face!
I've logged in 3+ times now since I've read your thread. I still do not understand your position at all. How does what Menards does administratively, affect you???? If you don't like/care for/believe in their practices, take your business elsewhere!!Plain and simple.............yah hey??!!!!!!- smoke on the prairie
