Te300

Well it's funny. When I first got this truck all my friends asked what I tow. At that point it was just groceries and beverages. Since then I got a huge boat and a dump trailer and a car hauler. I even towed a backhoe home 300 miles with the 02 black dodge auto trNny. 40,000 pounds total weight on 5.9!! Think I'll do the 190. 200 in the winter when I don't tow Thanks you guys!! I'll get thermostat on Monday from dodge unless you think run of the mill from big daddy auto chain is sufficient ?

Ok thanks. Saw the thread on the 190 vs 200 thermostat. Prolly just use 190 since its summer right?

Hi guys, been a while. I'm having a problem with my truck getting up to temp. Unless I'm towing. But on normal driving edge on 5x5 it stays about 140 degrees. Any thoughts?

Feels it but tows it no prob Need to update. It's a 2001 5 speed With a lot of stuff I did to it thanks to this site

My actual job . Riding the steep

Found my floor jack

Man I wouldn't want mine slipping off on a dusty road!! Do you guys think rtv or silicone would be a good idea? I mean you could peel off what you don't like. Or doesn't someone use a piece of pipe inside as a backup for gear clamps? Prolly 4inch sdr 35 pipe cause 4" abs or PVC would be to big. I bet that with a rough up would be ace tight.

That's slick!! What's that on your oil fill cap?

Ya California is a rough spot. I mean you can get anything you need for your truck within an hour, you can motocross, ski, hunt, fish, water ski, surf, or go make ten thousand bucks real quick if all that gets to boring, all within a few hours or even minutes of each other. Ya this place is rough. The hardest thing about this place is leaving. If you break down here give me a call.

Both mine passed with 128 to 1. Also had no cat and no muffler. They were not to thrilled about the edge wiring that I had tucked behind brake booster but it still passed

Those look nice!! Do you have a link to a site? Also how does the center console part fit and does it still open and close?

Good lookin out. Ill check for bubbles right now. It's the tiny freez plug on the back of the head that appears to be leaking. I put stop leak in and made it home a week ago. Haven't had time to further inspect, but will check for bubbles first. I did change the oil in Missouri before I left and its lookin clean and at same level. All three gallons and new filter, so I see no oil in coolant. I wonder how you fix that little freeze plug back there. Do I have to pull head. ? - - - Updated - - - As for the ether they sprayed it right on the bhaf. Still a nice stain on it. At the dealer I was pacing like a new dad in a waiting room wondering what they were doing to my truck, telling the guys to crack and bleed etc etc. then finally I couldn't take it anymore and peeked in just in time to here it clack to a start and see dude putting can of ether on shelf!! I said NOoooo!!! And was like wtf man you don't do that. That's when I noticed there wasn't one drop of fuel on the floor, so they just drained tank and filters and cranked it through. I mean if it was done right there would be diesel on the floor. Oh we'll I still feel like a moron.

Well I change my mind. That red dodge looks sweet!!as far as keeping it clean, what about mud? I have a two mile dirt road that gets pretty brutal in the winter months. That's why I want to go up to the window line. Truck gets pretty muddy.

I saw a red Toyota today with rhino line rockers and didn't like it. I'm thinking about line x all the way to bottom of windows. Some people around here do their whole truck. Looks awesome. I didn't know they could color match. That's cool i don't like when rockers are done and then the little rubber shopping cart strip above it. Just my opinion though. Check out how thick line x is. I think professionally done is worth it
