If someone knows where there's a good thread to answer this question. Please point me to it. I searched and read through a bunch but couldn't make heads or tails of most of what I was reading. My truck is an 08 F450 with the 6.4 diesel. H&S XRT PRO set on "tow". Straight exhaust with DPF...

Posting this for a friend. I've copied his description and ad of it but it's a very nice truck. Always maintained on time and treated with care. http://stjoseph.craigslist.org/cto/4906066656.html

I've got an 08 f450. 85k miles. Bone stock everything. I've got friends with stock f250's and f350's that get 15mpg and I've figured it so I know they really are. Mine gets 7.5 and last month I ran $2500 worth of fuel through it. And that cost is going to drown me, lol. So I'm wondering if it...

I'm wondering if anyone knows of a system I could put on my truck that would automatically start the engine in cold weather. I didn't find much when I searched the web. A lot of days it sits on a job where there's no power to plug it in so it sits there all day in 0 degree weather. It always...

As the title states I'm trying to find a front steer axle like what the 4x4 Topkicks and Kodiaks came with. I've found very little info on them and none on where to get one. I have a topkick I want to convert it to 4x4 and want to keep it fairly factory so I'm trying to stay away from the...

Like the title says, I'm working on an ISC with issues. Its in a Case fertilizer spreader machine. The machine has done this several times before but this is the first time I've been the one called to work on it. I replaced the ICV modulator and the transient suppressor as per Cummins...

I'm building a 6.5 for my weekend/Sunday go-to-meeting truck. Part of my goal is to see what kind of fuel mileage I can squeeze out of it. Has anyone here ever added an Airdog system to a 6.5 to see if there were any gains? I'm also adding an innercooler and upgrading the cooling system. Any...

Long story short, I bought a machine with bad ring and pinion gears. The cheapest I can find replacement parts is $3800, the ring gear is a whopping 7" across so its not like its gears out of a monster earthmover. Anybody know of any shops with a CNC machine that could reverse engineer the gears...

A customer of mine has CAT D6R XW with a C9 in it. When the weather is warm outside it blows engine oil out the blow-by tube, sometimes a couple gallons a day. When the weather is cool, we have never had an issue with it. However, its been near 100 here for the past month so its been doing it...

Hey all, I'm seriously considering putting a dmax/allison setup in my fs chevy and I've got some questions. Fabrication and making all the iron fit is no problem but I run into a lack of knowledge when it comes to the electronics portion. I'm putting it in a '93 2500 chevy pickup (why?: because...

I've got a 3406B thats knocked a lobe off and the guy that owns it is wanting to hop it up a bit. Anybody ever done this or know of a place that sells such a thing?

I'm putting a new injector in #3 on my '02 GMC and I wondered if I ought to run the overhead while I've got it somewhat apart. I know I'll have to take off alot of other stuff on the passenger side which isn't where I'm replacing the injector but the truck's got 240,000 miles on it and I'm just...

Hey guys I've got an '02 GMC with an injector out of it. I'm a diesel mechanic by trade but spend all my time working on older, bigger stuff in dozers, off road trucks, and scrapers. My local diesel shop diagnosed it and i just need a heads-up on what to expect when changing it out. This is the...

Anybody know if/where you can get smoked cab lights for the new chevy HD's
