    DK pistons, junk or good?

    01-05 duramax didn’t have piston issues. You could take a set of 300,000 mile pistons delip them and run them at 800hp and get good life out of them. People would run 3300 pulse and weren’t concerned about them. In 06 everything changed, stock trucks were cracking pistons. Sure you can make sure...

    DK pistons, junk or good?

    ^ what they said. We already have enough problems with pistons, why not go with something better like the motorsports piston(which I would go with fingers just because). Anything else is a gamble.

    I did the same for my LMM unfortunately I will no longer take my truck there, after them trying to do the alignment for 6 hours and then telling me they couldn’t align it because of my tie rod sleeves. I forced my way to the back and grabbed the tools and did it myself ?

    Transmission issue or wiring??

    Only thing I can think of is it adds capacitance to the wires that the TCM isn’t accounting for ??‍♂️ Once the fluid degrades or becomes contaminated it doesn’t become more conductive.

    Transmission issue or wiring??

    I thought you weren’t supposed to put dielectric grease inside the connection, just over the top to encapsulate it ??‍♂️ Also that stuff you spray on battery terminals, do not spray it on first then make your connection, my dad learned that the hard way ?

    Crank no start white smoke when starting

    Bad injectors ??‍♂️. You should be seeing 4000ish psi while cranking White smoke is unburnt fuel. Injectors are probably leaking

    Ply ratings 6 versus 10

    Probably would be over on the front tires. Could always use the 6ply on the rear and buy the correct tires for the front. But you still wouldn’t be able to haul much.

    VGT 68mm 9 Blade?

    The 9 blade is the problem, stick with the 10 blade turbine.
