    Issues loading tunes after getting a new ECM

After the new ecm was installed the shop installed the OS using the GM Global software. The shop then tried...

    Question: Nitto G2 terra grappler issues

    I have a set of 35” ridge grapplers on mine 2500hd. Love them. They are quiet and was impressed with how they did on the slick roads last winter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Found this kinda odd...

    Whats this world coming to! Bunch of fun hating dream crushers. Whats odd to me is that in parts of Washington, with a turn signal and mirror kit you can get SXS licensed. I dont think everyone will be following Texas. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Vinyl Wrap

    People can call it what they want but I think its a good idea. I would do it but it costs quite a bit. Living in Alaska where the roads are hell on trucks it would be a nice way to protect it and get a change of scenery.

    LBZ: Re-Gearing

    So I just did a 6" lift and 35's. I kind of knew going into this I might want to re-gear it. It seemed ok at first driving around town I liked it. Well I drove from Soldotna to Wasilla (I live in Alaska) with a 3 place trailer and sled on it. No big deal but I had to lock 6th out because it was...

    Pipeline problems on east coast again

    I am in the oil and gas industry. I feel some points are not being made. I don't care for how it operates but it puts food on the table and a comfortable roof over my family's head. I have been lucky enough to keep my job though this but at the expense of a 30% cut in pay. Diesel in Alaska is...

    Thoughts on CP Carillo's Hybrid Rods/Pistons?

    Finger's oval's are designed to keep more material above the pin to makenthem more resistant to cracking in that area. It would seem that making a shorter piston would take material away from that. That being said they are forged but only available in 16.5:1. Kind of a high comp ratio for a...
