    Trying to figure out why my truck is so weak?

    Plugs looked well worn but nothing as far as oil. Intake looks dry but I really didn't crawl up in there to really look. Truck is back together. Did notice it was pinging. Threw in some injector cleaner and filled it painfully with high test. 30 miles later Ping is gone. Almost rust...

    Trying to figure out why my truck is so weak?

    It's got 203k on it. lol probably time for a rebuild in the future. Im looking to make it into a decent off roader that can pull a boat. It's going to be a Daily for a while and eventually be used only when were up camp. Once the body work is finished. But the current setup I'm worried about...

    rear end bouncy on highway?

    My uncle Had a 00 3500 Quad cab Duley. Never hauled or towed anything. Just a cod piece. He had an issue with bouncing. My dad followed him home incase the rear end came apart. Well the rear tires were leaving the ground at every bump. Had to use a backhoe in the bed to break the springs loose...

    Sent the truck in for rust repair.

    I'm rolling the dice. My neighbor owns a shady stealership. His "personal" body guy. He buys tons of auction vehicles and all his trucks prettymuch get new rockers/cab corners repaired before they go on the lot. Funny side story....we live in a 60's subdivision. HOA and all. But this guy got...

I'll take after pics soon as I get...

If I did I wouldn't be able to drive above 20 mph......did I tighten that bolt.....what would happen if this or that came loose. No thanks lol. He said it drives just fine...

    How to "force" junk transmission

    Depends on what's shot.....If it's the tourqe converter is never going to move. The pump is another no go. Slipping is another story. So if it's not even trying to move I wouldn't waste the time. Years ago my buddies first car was a 14 year old 86 Mercury Topaz. It lost 2nd gear. So we were...

    Justification of truck payment.....

    Our market just sucks right now due to the natural gas fracking. One bedroom apartments went from $400.00 to $850 a month. Even campers doubled in price. If you want a 2500 quad cab diesel your paying above sticker. These companies come in and buy 50+ at a time as fleet trucks. Took my 2nd Gen...

    Justification of truck payment.....

    My Parents bought a place to retire in Hertferd NC. We use it for vacation right now. My wife was saying getting a used one next summer. It’s inland about an hour from kitty hawk. I heard living by the ocean was worse than living here with Pittsburgh salt. But thanks for the idea. Gotta calm...

    Justification of truck payment.....

    Exactly what I thought! Why I always hated Dodge. Two and a half hours of managers and pressure. Dude I’m not paying “600” a month for that. Started out at window of $35 minus down payment and the incentives got to $29 then taxes and fees got to $32. Tried selling me the 3.9 then the hideously...
