I had issues with my front brakes also awhile back I bought 2 rotors 2 calipers and 2new hoses from Napa haven't had a problem since I tried doing this and that to fix it and a great mech told me just change it all your stopping 6700 plus pounds of steel I think I got almost 30 k on these pads now I'll be checking them soon

Ok I'm keep my rig it runs great never let me down nephews gonna do body work than wrap the whole truck when done I'm gonna start taking pictures of before during and after I'm gonna start ordering parts so any vendors out there the rear seems simple enough I don't tow all that much some new ranchos and stabilizer bar also upgrade the rear brakes maybe different wheel cyls I read about that somewhere and in front ball joints and hubs seem ok I'll check again when up on the stands I have 2 in leveling kit so I'm gonna get adjustable track bar and stabilizer bar with adj end links my goal is to get this all done before my nephew steals the truck than tires last thanks. Tom

I want to drain tranny and fluid any suggestions while I'm in there would you do a power flush what type of fluid etc

I going to order sway bar end links I have a 2 in leveling kit do I need the adjustable away bar and end links I'm also going to change the track bar any suggestions on where to purchase these parts thanks

Looking to change sway bar or just the end links any recommendations on the 1999 I heard it's not that bad of a suspension I have the steering brace new shocks ball joints seem tight just at high speeds and tight lanes i gets a little white knuckles

All good now one boot was loose tightened it up 30 lbs no problem now I can concentrate on other stuff ? thanks for all the input ?

Thanks Mike I mAde one today couldn't get higher than 6 lbs was going to buddy's house to use his big comp I just had a little 12v tire pump I thought It should've been enough anyhow I turned in on the adjustable boost elbow and threw the bhaf back on i had to wait awhile till he got home so I soaked everything up with soapy water and fired her up first coupling right under turbo blowing big bubbles soak all the clamps up wd 40 and it got dark the hunt continues tomorrow

I'm having a hard time finding the article on how to check for leaks in the system I'm going to attempt to make something out of pvc or rubber and pump about 20 lbs into turbo than some soap and water in a spray bottle?

Seems my boost is low 10 maybe when I hit it I have edge comp set on 3x3 lot of smoke maybe leaking or glowshift hooked up wrong or plastic hose cracked hooked it up awhile ago but with my setup I should hit 30 lb quick I think or gauge is NG any ideas where to start

I'm going to wait for the air filter than get the temps thanks

Well like I said was gonna sell the truck than thought about it and decided to keep it I'm thinking the air cleaner was on just a bit longer than it should have when the new one gets here I'll see how it works as far as smoke I've been playing with the comp settings but I'm thinking the amsoil filter is done tried blowing it out but it's starting to collapse when I hit the throttle a good friend said maybe a little bigger sticks might get the egts down just looking for some advice from you guys thanks

PS I was going to sell this truck but I just can't do it so my nephews gonna do the body work and shoot it with some new paint and my buddy owns a tranny shop he's looking around at options I'd love to put a stick in it

1999 dodge 4x4 ext cab auto fass 95 titanium draw straw in tank gauges thanks mopar man as this was the first suggestion from you 4inch mbpr Bhaf rv 275s cooper 265-75-16 hbs steering stabilizer 2 inch lift in front edge comp box seem to be dropping mpgs smoking a little more and egts getting a little higher just ordered a new Donaldson Bhaf had a amsoil on there but the outer wear got real dirty I think I'm gonna try running that crank tube down lower as everything is getting oily up top 170 k on the mileage everybody's telling me to go with a bigger injector and maybe a newer turbo any advice thanks Tom

thanks for the replys guys no its just a daily driver thinking about unlocking the comp box and maybe a new exhaust manifold and intake with a new elbow

thinking about going bigger what are the pros and cons looking for that extra kick have a fass platinum fuel pump bhaf 4inch exhaust rv 275s edge comp not unlocked yet decent tranny and friend that owns a tranny shop

ok a friend is telling me its probably the orafice thats the problem any thoughts? pressure is good it takes a long time to get cold than it gets cold and sometimes not especially when you really need it i keep checking the pressure and its holding ok :banghead:

I cannot understand for the life of me how these people get all this time to protest things that dont need protesting everyone in this country should be entitled to there opinions at least thats what I thought we fought for. so what if the owner of chickafil said what he said hes entitled to say it if certain people decide not to eat there thats there right just like whats on the radio or whats on tv change the damn channel if you dont like it to many liberals. if they dont like something thats said or thats on tv or radio than protest it and shut it down why not change the channel or not eat there. myself personaly i dont have the time to protest the protesters because i work or im out fishing or up in the mountains enjoying my self and my family lifes to short for all this crap

sorry if i wasnt to clear i went from stock to rv275s the trucks running real smooth strong im really gonna watch my right foot this tank though but its hard you know:lmao:

no cel dont think i got a boost leak maybe my right foot was to heavy:lol: really concentrating now on the foot thing with this tank i ordered rv 275s hope thats what he gave me

ok changed the injectors to rv275s from dap and mileage got a little worse:banghead: was running 5x5 than tried 3x5 now trying 2x5 the comp is tapped maybe time to untap but ill wait and see how this tank reacts went from about 15 to about 13:banghead:

:thumbup2: very good

thanks mike im looking for someone that has this on sale right now

trying to tweek the settings on the comp. with the added rv275s had it on 5x5 mileage went down now trying 3x5 any thoughts on this? ps yes im keeping my foot out of it as im trying to get this mpg thing in line thanks:thumbup2:

I dont mind helping people out thats whats great about this country but I am real tired of helping people out that dont help themselves! I had my own buisiness for 22 years and it all went away with the NAFTA bill than I had to cowboy up and find a job it took awhile to find a decent one but I did. I am afraid for my children and grandchildren as there going to be paying for all these mistakes.........

government is the problem :evilgrin:the american dream is sadly slowley disappearing to overseas labor and technologly im fine as far as everything goes but i worry for our children its time to put tariffs back on some of these imports before its to late i had a very sucessful buisness in the womens garment center until NAFTA was put in place wiped out thousands of jobs up here people need to start looking at where the product there buying is made its a very tough thing to do but i do as much as i can time to start tightening up the borders before its to late might be already considering china owns this country :banghead:
