    Having a edge programmer problem

    I'm pretty sure something is not quite right with me programmer. I have not had time to mess with it yet but I'm slowly working on it. So far what I know is when chip is turned up to level 5 I'm not getting much smoke out of it just a little. Then when I turn the chip down to level 1 it smokes...

    rubber transmission mount?

    Since I've had dusty put in my hts tranny the truck has shifted like a monster when going through the gears. Just recently the shifts have been really shaking the truck hard.

    Log style intake manifold?

    Can one be built for a vp with stock lines? Is it worth it? I've searched on here and have not really come up with one that I can see. With a little modifications it seems one could be built somehow. I will admit I have not checked it out completly yet but I just really want one for my truck but...

    Yesterday I decided to change the setting on my smarty just to see if gas mileage would change. I had it on sw9 and it seem to run just fine and start fine. I changed setting to sw0 which is the half power setting and now when I try to start it up it cranks over a few times before it starts...

    custom driveshaft for lifted dodge?

    I just put a 8 inch lift in my dodge and the stock driveshaft will fit but to go wheeling in truck it will not work. I'm looking at having a custom driveshaft made and was just wondering if anyone out there has had one made up. Looking for suggestions on a good place to purchase driveshaft.

    smarty settings question?

    I have a stock 01 with only changes are air filter and exhaust. First I just set the smarty on level 9 and drove it for the day. I liked the added power but its nothing to crazy. I do believe if I leave it set on 9 then the tranny will be hurting soon. So now I messed with it on level 9 again...

    Sand dune tires what do you prefer?

    I went over to dunes this weekend with a set of boggers on my truck and I hate the darn things. I will never run boggers at dunes again. I could spin them well but just not get any speed. My buddie was running some nitto dune grapplers and those seem to be very good. Just curious if anyone knows...

    Thoughts on my rear suspension setup

    I've been messing around lowering my rear. I was driving around with just stock leaf spring and a add a leaf in there also with no blocks. The box has been gutted to just box sides and tailgate shell with tonneau cover. Just enough of the box to make it look normal. With that setup and stock...

    Loooking to build a twin turbo 600hp D.D. and tow rig.

    I recently de-tuned my truck by ditching my monster pump and injectors for sovp and some 100 hp injectors. I'm regretting it now with the loss of power it sucks. I have a 01 now that I'm going to use for the build. Main reason is the 99 is just getting in rough shape and not looking to put money...
