    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    I don’t know everything. Just stating what’s literally printed on my truck and I never said I would disregard payload. If I tow heavy I’ll measure the weights. If I’m over, I’d adjust the weight. Hell you can even add weight to help out. If payloads over and the item is centered but you’re...

    Ok I’ll return it and will look forward to the lower MPG.

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    Sorry but I disagree and I know my numbers for my exact truck. I’m not just quoting a work sheet, I’m reading my door numbers. Where you place your load depends the most. I won’t max out a payload before 32k if all the weights at the back of the trailer and it’s lifting the back end up...

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    Lol the difference from the 3.73 to 4.10 is 1,360lbs towing or 0.37 final drive. Going to a 255/80/17 I’ll be around 3.59 or 0.14 final drive difference. Lol I think I’m good losing around 500lbs of towing.

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    Lol 100% realize. Pretty sure a 5300 payload and 32,000 towing isn’t gonna care to much from an extra 1.3” diameter or 0.65” taller in ride height and 7lbs per tire of rotational weight. That loss of 3hp and tq is really gonna kill me!! Haha

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    Well FYI for the price I ended up with a 2022 3500 6.7 dually 3.7 with 58k. 1. I’ll leave it alone because I’m covered for 100,000 miles and 5 more years. 2. Just going to add some 33’s or 1 size up as they fit better.

    Intermittent air bag light?

    I keep getting an intermittent airbag light on my 2022 to 3500. Will it save if scanned or does it have to be active to see? I have 59,000 miles so I believe I’m out of bumper to bumper. It’s a 6.7 so I know the drive trains good to 100,000 miles or 6 years. I also believe it’ll be the...

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    If this was to me, I don’t think it will. I just think items on the motor will 1 day go out, and if they aren’t needed, delete them.

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    These are my thoughts but I guess im alone. I don’t think the delete will help the motor though. Just delete failure points of items on the motor.

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    This is 100% my thoughts others may not be getting. I don’t want to tune the tranny or get more power. Simply delete a failure point. That’s all. MPG would be nice but not a must have. As for tires, I’d only do it on a non dually. The dually i’d leave alone. Cheapest Aisin i see is in...

    I feel like you're understanding but that's ok and I respectfully disagree.

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    You’re correct, i may not be up to date. I’m only going off forum threads where people have issues and YouTube videos of people with issues and the mechanics that work on them giving their 2 cents. I can only get knowledge from the info I’m seeing. Here’s me now trying to learn more.

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    I understand what you’re saying but saying millions spent and engineers in a room are better etc is basically saying a stock item or vehicle never breaks and that’s just foolish thinking. Engineers get it wrong all the time. People are killed all the time. Lemons happen all the time. Were...

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    I wouldn’t hook 20k up though. Looked at a 97 f250 fully rebuilt and they are only rated at 12,500 so I would try to do more. That’d be foolish. But no, im not opposed to a gasser hence option 1.

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    Not really. The 14k towing isn’t going to be enough and I dont want to try towing more and something happening. On the road or at the dealer.

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    It’d be used maybe close to 100k already. As for towing regularly only around max for a gas, once in a while max for a diesel.

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    What about mild 35’s? I would do all that I can to keep it cool. Towing will be two track cars and a gooseneck. Sometimes a tractor, skid steer, boom lift. Max maybe around 20,000lbs.

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    Going to go used this time. Unfortunately with ram having yet the same base msrp in 18, 19, 20, and 21, the 22’s went up $6000 and the early 23’s went up $6000, mid 23’s $1000 and the late 23’s $1000. Same damn trucks now $15,000 more as every single item added on is more than before. Or...

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    I’m looking for used. I found a 2020 3500 HO with 90,000 miles and it’s still gonna be $60k out the door. Found others for more for way less miles so I guess it just depends on the year and miles about the warranty. Because it’ll passive regen you’re saying and build ash?

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    really? not trying to gain any MPG really but why wouldn't it gain engine life? if I don't gain engine life that's ok but why do I want to clean and replace EGR valves and the filter etc when it inevitably will break and go bad? a straight pipe can't break and turning the CELs off is just 1...

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    but we all know the EGR and filter are not reliable at all. I can't be away from home with a truck in limp mode with all the BS EPA stuff on. I have a better chance of not breaking down with a cleaner running motor. again I don't want to mod the tranny or add any HP that will break it. the...

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    I understand what you’re saying but you didn’t address the tranny issues. In a perfect world the 6.4 with 4.10 would be best. 17,000lbs towing and cheaper gas. Maybe worse when towing but cheaper all around. But I don’t think anyone really wants to tow with a gas.

    Upgrading to a 6.7, but which?

    My 2021 2500 6.4 lease is coming to an end with equity, figured it’s time to upgrade. My truck currently only has a 3,100 payload and 14,200 towing capacity. I going to start towing more with more cars and a bigger trailer. Option 1. 2500 6.4 with the 4.10 rear Option 2. 2500 6.7 with the...

    2020 2500 non air ride suspension???

    when I was building them online the hooks weren't 100%. this is a snow prep group but not a snow plow group so no hooks added. they have the OEM window sticker so I saw it all. as for discount, retail is like $45,600 right now. high trade is $41,300 and asking is $40,990 so that's not a bad...
