    Tcm??

    Still trying to diagnose my u0101. So far at the TCM connector I have confirmed 12v constant, 12v ignition source and both grounds. The serial data wire is good to the DLC, the CAN LO and CAN HI wires are good to the ECM. All my other ground connections are clean and solid. Tow haul mode and OD...

    Remote mounting cp3

    Have my pump out right now and was just thinking why can't I mount it up where the second pump would go and run it off the belt. Wherli(sp?) makes a plug to block off the hole in the block. Seems a lot more simple to me than having it deep in the valley...

I had a thread on diesel place about it not cranking but got that solved (bad connection @ ECM) now it cranks over but I can't for the life of me get the fuel system bled out.

    I set my lift just slightly front high with 5" blocks in the rear so I figure about 7". All of my angles are great CV & tie rods are pretty much flat and there is alot of room between the UCA and droop stop. My LCAs are just touching the bump stops when sitting on flat ground. There is a...

    Plumbing AUX tank

    So before I get into my ideas I just want to say that I have seen all of the options out there for installing a gravity feed AUX tank. I just thought I would like to do it a bit different. Option #1 First I was thinking of putting a 2" "smart" check valve up near the top of the filler tube...

    Idiots!

    There are to many morons on DP for me to take anymore. I think its about time I start hanging out here a little more and leave that place behind for awhile. Atleast people here are about performance not just making noise and smoke. I will just stop my rant now before I get too carried away.
