And second to this is transmission cooling which is driven by engine rpm not final drive which is why towing in overdrive even in a vehicle capable of locking the torque converter is not recommended because it requires higher engine rpm to increase fluid circulation. This is why even though you...

You must not be familiar with the integrity of a torque converter. Just as a clutch is designed to last so long with x amount of slip against the flywheel a torque converter that is ridden too much overheats the fluid, and after so long breaks down the material within the torque converter itself...

As @BoostN said or put a plate between the cab and box similar to a tie down for a slide in camper and mount it just alongside the box and cab transition

With the amount of Turbo lag with the factory tune you need first gear even if it seems to be a short gear. But if your concern is traction on snow and you're rocketing off and relying on traction control then your foot is the problem (and imo diesel characteristics likely aren't suitable for...

There was no real change to the 2016's so the suspension compatibility has not been updated for many websites. Just order for the 2015 and you will be golden. Make sure to get your alignment done. To answer your near original question yes you can just remove that lower valance and it will be...

Welcome Kevin

You know what I'm most curious of all of this? What oil is he running in that engine? That's some expensive Turbo to risk with inferior oil

Well my mistake. I was pretty sure all the organics did not but I was wrong

So you are using an aftermarket hid? And your factory wiring harness is plugged into the ballast. (Which is taking the power and telling the computer it's fine) but the bulb is not actually igniting? Cross reference your bulbs and ballasts. See if the other side will power the bulb. Or if that...

You realize the OE coolant is not ethylene glycol don't you? That's the green stuff. We have Oat coolant. Hoat specifically. There's no ethylene glycol content

They are thermally controlled. During winter in particular but any cold startup they will be closed to restrict airflow to the radiator to push coolant and oil temps up to operating temp. Because a hot engine is an efficient engine. Cold oil is less viscous and essentially has drag within the...

You're using aftermarket HID's and a resistor pack. Your resistor pack is plugged in so the computer isn't reading a dead bulb but your HID is likely unplugged or not grounded. Are you using a harness from the battery to power the HID Or are you piggybacking the factory wiring with a Y for the...

It all depends if you can keep your foot under control with power gains and still treat it as a MPG queen.

What's your price point jeff? I'm considering getting out from under mine. Just had a second kid and the wife is going back to school October and probably not back to work so the payment is a bit too hefty with all of this going on. Has about 32k with no issues it's a 15 pretty much loaded. I...

Kind of impressed with this little find I came across. Banks now has a CAST intake manifold to replace the OE plastic for the ecodiesel that COMPLETELY DELETES EGR. To the tune of $700 http://www.ebay.com/itm/262527112982

I hope you get some pretty memorable stares pulling an f250 with a half ton ram!

I think mine is under 7k but I'm not 100% certain

Lol I just dumped my BMW. E53. Loved driving it but God the problems. Timing guides finally went out of it and jumped time so bye bye beemer

Thanks for the great experience @BoostN
