  1. #4 is a problem I'm guessing?
  2. Just one of those days huh?
  3. As far as what filter to use, I installed a Wix brand filter in mine. I also run Wix oil filter to. Need to replace my air filter before long. Thinking BHAF
  4. The driver's seat back looks like it could use a tweak as well. It has that Detroit lean built in. Lol
  5. I have not used the dyna beads in a truck tire yet but I have run them in my motorcycle tires for the past 8 years without trouble.
  6. There is another paint out there for frames called chassis saver. I used it on a '95 chevy rear half. Seemed to work well. I have since sold the truck.
  7. Those older ones with the inline 6 were tough little things.
  8. Thor is a manual Trans to? 6 speed?
  9. I agree with the others. Your in the right place! WELCOME
  10. Bill Gates has been buying agricultural land for some time. Supposedly he owns a very large amount of acreage. He is also one to push the GMO agenda and he is in line with the leftist ways.
  11. I find the death if all those cows very suspicious myself. In conjunction with all the food processing plants and warehouses that have mysteriously burned down and now there's been at least 2 that I know of that have closed their doors due to operating costs. If we can send 40billion to Ukraine why can't we extend financial help to a food plant to feed our own country. Yet some people still don't see the evil at play here?
  12. I'm running stock size 235/85/16 tires, I do have e a lot of open space in the wheel wells. I've tried to load it down enough to squat it but have been unsuccessful so far. Lol
  13. Welcome @DrJekyll86! You have absolutely stumbled into the right place and as far as being new to diesels you have the right one to start with. The 5.9 cummins is probably one of the easiest to work on and affordable compared to some of the newer ones in my opinion. May I suggest reading articles, I learned a lot there. My 2001 in my signature is my first diesel as well and have had fun doing some of the mods and just driving it. I pull an 11k fifth wheel myself, not full time but she pulls without trouble. Also, there is a garage area where you can upload pics of your truck and list mods, repairs or whatever. Again, welcome!
  14. It has hit the $6 mark here also. Still creeping up to I'm afraid.
  15. That's pretty impressive mpg's on that 300 mile stretch! Wow
  16. Knock on wood, so far I've never run into a situation where someone welded in a wheel bearing or something like that. Good greif.
  17. Wow, looks like you have some wrenching to do. I hate getting into stuff and trying to figure out what kind of mess someone else made of it. Then try to get it back to normal. Ugh.
  18. Not long ago I changed injectors in my truck (see sig) and assuming that the claim of 100hp is accurate, anyone have an estimate of my new torque numbers? Stock Dodge advertised 235hp and 460ftlb of torque I believe. Just wondering where it might be at now. Any thoughts? No chassis dyno around here that I know of and honestly not that worried about it to spend the time and money. Just curiosity really.
  19. The blood pressure example was helpful, I have high BP. Thanks for that tip. Is hawthorn berry a liquid? Pill? Would there be something for someone that has typically low blood pressure?
  20. Could you give some examples? Just curious, I don't like to take prescription meds if I don't absolutely have to. Thanks.
  21. I used wix on both oil and fuel filters last change. No issues as if yet....
  22. Nice looking wheels. I've thought about painting my steel wheels and running without the wheel covers. Would make checking tire pressure alot easier in the rear. Wheels are 7 hole, covers are 4 hole. They don't line up to get to the valve stems
