Depending on the tires, I wouldn't go below 45 on these heavy crew cabs. Could lead to outer band tread wear and heat, particularly in the SW...
Not really. About the best bet I could see for reasonable money would be a cam swap or something. Duals only help for high rpm, might think...
Diesel sure hasn't done anything yet. I just filled up (almost) with $75 (I hate those pumps that limit you to $75) at $2.59 a gallon. What a crock!
There is no general diesel forum or any other place where this made sense, so here it is. :D Some interesting links to recent articles and...
Yeah, but by the time you find/buy the bell housing adapters, change the throttle/pump/governer stuff, and so on and you probably spent more than...
Problem is, finding a 4BT is not easy and I don't want to wait forever with a rod hanging out the side of the block... :mad:
It's called "buyer's remorse" and will go away as soon as you're behind the wheel. :D Congrats! And I agree on using Fleet. They have an...
Well, my son killed the built 350 in my K5 today. Slung a rod through the pan; short block time! But I was thinking, maybe time to go diesel....
Yes
My guess for DC continuing to use them is just simply market pressure. The Cummins is pretty much the major selling point of the Dodge trucks....
Yeah, mine does a bit of that too. Here is what I've read on the matter, though I've not tried it. Apparently some of the 2500HDs come from...
LOL, that's just my style and also an attempt at CYA. Every time I try to distil things down, there is a misunderstanding. To avoid that takes a...
Bilstines won't help that I'm afraid. All they are really going to do is help *control* body movement. In fact, they are gas pressurized and...
I agree that GM is in trouble on several fronts. Just like most "big business run by MBAs with no connection to reality and only focused on short...
I basically enguage it and leave it. The enhanced grade braking and all is nice, as is the extra/different TC lock points and change in sift...
FWIW, my '98 had the "towing package" and I just plugged in my controller with no issues. Never had a light switch failure either, that...
No idea on the real answer. Allison definitely has "the name to beat" for automatics in working trucks, and when beefed, they can handle pretty...
<Edit for spelling errors> Hmmm, I don't think that is quite accurate. There may be more PSDs on the road than DMax+Cummins combined (no idea,...
LOL, this coming from the guy who likes really wide rims and ballooning tires? With all the grief you get/got for your choice of wheels, I would...
There are 2 levels. The GM "employee" discount is better, I got my truck with 50k sticker for around $33k out the door. With that, you not only...
