I just got my truck a few months ago and was wondering if anyone had 17 in offset rims, running boards, and possibly a chip for sale. Just let me know. Thanks

Welcome to the Cummins family...

Well I'm going to suggest you take care of a few things before adding power to your truck. Like taking care of the weak transmission (if auto), better fuel filters, and lift pump.

Common rails are know to do some serious damage to themselves when the injectors deside to fail. So I suggest to cover all the wweak points first before even thinking of adding power to it...

Welcome to the forum from the Springfield area

Actually I didn't really... I can suggest gauges but most tend to do like a Quadzilla or Edge module that comes with gauges... Call me old school but I rather have mechanical gauges seperate from any tuner or module...

So if I sugges gauges most just wait till the module do it all at once.

I plan on adding the power to my truck last, and I know what your talking about and I appreciate the info. I know stuff about trucks, but not much about diesel trucks. All I know is that I am excited to own a Cummins.

Biggest thing right now is upgrade fuel filter ASAP... CR injectors are expensive and you need to protect them from damage...
