    Power Mirror going haywire?

    I just put a new master window switch in my truck a couple weeks ago. I think it had gotten some moisture in it and my driver side window stopped rolling down. The switch I bought came with a lifetime warranty so if it happens again I just take it in and get a new one. I think there was a gap...

    3" lift RC Control Arms on 6" lift?

    I bet it would considering guys run 4-6” lift kits with factory UCA’s. In fact when I bought my truck it had the stock UCA’s and a RCD 6” lift installed. I would imagine the arms for you RC 3” kit are more suitable than factory. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What is the number 1 thing you have done to make your truck tow better?

    Since you’re asking for the number one most important: Brake controller. Can’t tow without one. There are a ton of items that I’ve done to my truck to help tow better, but if you can’t stop, you might die or kill someone. Second would be a pyrometer. The list goes on and on. Sent from my...

    Getting back on the horse again

    I would get the 24. I’m considering trading my LLY for one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Truck died, lost panel except tach and all front door controls. Also somehow AC.

    Interesting, my LLY I believe is usually in mid to high 13 range. Maybe I need to double check. I do think I have a parasitic draw somewhere that I need to figure out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    That’s awesome news that’s the only issue. Had a good feeling it was the batteries. Use a volt meter with the truck running when you get the new batteries and make sure voltage at the batteries is around mid 13’s. That will tell you the alternator is working properly. Sent from my iPhone...

    I also don’t think doubling the cables could hurt anything, that would just provide more current at the same voltage. My guess is that he possibly had the cables on wrong before you showed up, or your batteries need to be replaced. Or like someone else mentioned, something happened to your mega...

    A couple possibilities I can think of: A power surge came through the cables somehow and possibly damaged your ECM. Hopefully that isn’t the case. Being optimistic, maybe it’s your batteries. I would replace both at the same time if you’ve been having problems, seems like they need to be...

    Blown turbo lly?

    That’s very likely. I would do your exhaust replacement and report back. Sounded like an exhaust leak to me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Buying Wheels

    The most important thing is to get ten ply tires that are rated E or heavier. Other than that I’d say it’s preference. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    LBZ Glow Plug diagnosis

    My guess would be the GPCM. Good mechanics outside dealership should be able to calibrate them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Blown turbo lly?

    Is it building normal boost? If not could be boost leak, and if so, could be exhaust leak. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Trans Temp with edge tuner.

    Around the same 220F. This is a reading off my edge and my gauge cluster. Never had a problem over heating. Although I am speaking of towing in 90-100 degree ambient temperature. I think that’s all in normal range. I also am towing up very steep and long grades at freeways speeds. Sent from...

    Trans Temp with edge tuner.

    When I’m towing my LLY trans gets to 220-230 with no problems. 160 degrees Fahrenheit is nothing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Fuel Filter Adapter

    Look into a lift pump if you want to do it right. Even if you’re bone stock it’s good for the fuel system.

    What did you do at work today?

    It’s DuPont Aldyl A pipe. The pipe is initially pink, if it’s grey you really need to worry. There is some orange PE in the ground, they used it for about a year. But it has the same properties as yellow PE. And yes the Aldyl A is very brittle even when in its original pink color. Which is why I...
