    traction bars....................................

    I have the Long horn bars and they are constantly loosing up. Another issue with mine is there is no spot to tighten the bars. I use a pipe wrench on the bar to tighten them up. I think they offer different rod ends now and they welded in a nut to the bar for tightening purposes

    LLY: Build thread/Compound install

    I'm having a turbo vane issue. I can hear the vanes change position erratically and see them doing so also at idle at times. When I drive the vane position will go from 0 to 100%.

    I'll see what I can do. I've never posted a video on a forum. I had to order a drivers side intercooler pipe from SDP. My stock one is blowing off at 10 psi so that's going to be a delay also. It is Illusion Royal

    Thanks guys! So I had a huge relief shortly after I posted about the head gasket. Turns out It was a torn coolant hose to the turbo and it was leaking down the back of the motor and made it look like it was coming out of the head. :didimiss: Took her for a spin this evening and that was sweet!

    I got the install done finally. I haven't had much time to work on my truck cause I've been busy doing spring farm work. Now that the kit is installed and my trucks running I have a new issue. My passenger side head gasket appears to be leaking, close to the fire wall. I thought about doing head...

    Body Not Lining Up With Box

    I bet if I went to my local stealer they'd look at me like WTF? If I asked them for updated rear cab mounts

    Body Not Lining Up With Box

    The bed on my truck doesn't line up with the body either. It's really irritating to me

    Air Dog-II-165

    The motor on my AirDog II 165 went out within 10 months of having it. I forgot to send in the warranty card. Called them. They said it was covered under the one year warranty and sent me a new motor. Now I'm SOL.

    I had a up pipe bolt brake off in the pedestal when I was removing the turbo. The bolt didn't brake off flush lucky so it wasn't too hard to get out. Just soaked it with some lubricant and turned it out with vise grips

    There is a CAT filter that fits the AirDog. I'm not sure if the one I have on my fuel filter head would fit

    Yes except where the y bridge mates. The new ones have a larger inlet that starts higher up and extend downward towards the block probably an inch or so further than the stock ones

    Thanks! I've been picking at it slowly. We've been using my girlfriends trailblazer and I drive one of my bosses pickups to and from work which is only a mile away. So pretty set as far as vehicles go but I need mine back for fun :D

    They are close. The driver side doesn't have a place for the MAP sensor and the passenger side has one less threaded hole
