    not getting desired results

    I've been working with a porter cable polisher with 5.5 chemical guy pads with various meguiars products. While I am achieving some results they aren't quite the results I am looking for. Still finding alot of scratches over freshly polished areas and the only thing that seems to have diminished...

    Currently looking to replace my flowmaster 40. I'm leaning towards the magnaflow magnapak, they sound pretty good on the 4.7 just having problem finding it. Anyone else have this setup? Where did you get it from?

    sluggish

    What can make a 4.7 more sluggish than what it already is, and recommended fixes? I've been plagued for a while with sluggish and bogged down feeling primarily in lower gears. Not really sure what else to say, wife pulled a trailer with a 4 wheeler on it today and she said going uphill it was...

    lift recommendation

    I'm looking to lift my rig, I don't want a huge lift maybe a couple of inches. I'd like to keep my stock tires for now and maybe have room for bigger tires later on. Currently sitting on stock 20s. Don't really know alot about lifts or their brands.

    did some detailin

    Tried out some of meguiars glazes today and bought a buffer. Must say I like the outcome didn't get rid of all the scratches yet but all the swirl marks are gone. Looks pretty good considering I've never messed with a buffer before. Need to get some better pads for the scratches

    yay more issues

    So recently my truck feels like it's riding a little rough like you can feel every little bump you hit, I thought it was just me but my wife who rarely drives my truck drove it last night and asked me about it. No idea what it could possibly be.. Also my idle has become a bit sporadic where it...

    B1669

    Got this code the other day, I've done some reading into it. Reverse Lamp Control Circuit Open is what it says. I've heard that this is commonly associated with tail lights. I do have aftermarket spyders but until now I've never had a code for it. The engine light only flashes when turning the...

    sigh..

    Not really requesting help for this first part unless someone has some to offer mainly just wanted to rant lol. My front crank seal and rear main seal are leaking oil. I can fix the front but the transmission will have to be dropped for the rear main which a shop will have to do because I don't...

    maintenance

    My 07 dodge 4.7 just hit 73k, and is still running good. The only maintenance which I do myself is oil, oil filter, air filter, and plugs. I had the power steering pump replaced a while back and I was just wondering at this point what else should I be lookin at to cleanup maybe even replace?

    possible exhaust swap

    Kinda wanna ditch the flowmaster 40. I like the sound but as everyone knows they start rusting which mine already has. I've been considering for a long time the Gibson Super truck Exhaust, my question is more about pipe size. It's the factory 3 inches in I don't remember what the shop did for...

    K&N CAI cleaning

    I have a complete K&N CAI system. Just curious about the cleaning of the filter. I've seen the recharge kits but those appear to be for oiled filters? Mine is a dry filter. Any specific way to clean this?

    bogging down

    For some reason if I accelerate normally in between 2-3 it seems like my engine just bogs down and struggles. It doesn't do this in any other gears either. If I put a little more gas on it it doesn't do this. Under normal it'll struggle and as it climbs it starts to perk back up. When it does...

    octane question

    I'm running the 87 tune on my superchips. I wanted to try the 91 tune but the highest octane sold here is 90. Can I run the 91 with the 90 in the tank? Will running 90 with the 87 tune make a difference? Or should I just stick with 87 all around. Sucks cause when I bought the tuner never paid...
