    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Replaced my stick on vent visors for a set of in channel ones. Spent all afternoon getting old ones off. First they were super brittle and broke with any pressure. Then trying to get off that adhesive tape. Man that sucked. I thought dealer where I got truck put them on but I am guessing...

    PA emissions inspection and 2500 gassers

    I'm at Class 2 and that does not matter. What matters is the GVW on the door tag. I am 8650 GVW and just got inspected. They did not do emissions and when I asked why. I was told I am 50lbs from not needing and didn't bother. My boss has a '18 2500 but his GVW is 10k. His registration says...

Took forever getting driver side lower out. Apparently it was messed up during install from factory. Was galled up and I got...

    SOS!!! PA emissions test

    I work right in Thornhill, small world. I'd say dealer registered your truck like that when you got it. Amazing how they want tests done with obsolete equipment that can't be fixed/serviced anymore. Course PA is run by a bunch of friggn idiots. I didn't even realize a tailpipe test was even a...

    SOS!!! PA emissions test

    It is a GVW thing in PA and a very very small window that requires the tail pipe sniffer. Yes it is fn stupid when hardly anyone has that equipment anymore. Shop we use normally has a tail pipe sniffer but it is broken and owner says parts are not available for it anymore. So it sits in a corner...

    Truck lift-ramps

    Newer ones are much stronger looking in overall design compared to the ones I broke. So far zero issues with them. Edit - I have the 12k versions

    Truck lift-ramps

    I use Rhino Ramps, not sure if they are the 12k or 16k versions(would need to look at them). I use them to back up onto and level my enclosed trailer so I can get car out into shop easier. Current ones have plenty of reinforcements and such. Plus the ramp part is a stronger design verse older...

    Seriously that is the fix? Red thread locker and call it a day not some lousy welds.

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Went about killing some drone in the exhaust. Dealer had put on a MRPB exhaust which just had the worst drone I ever experienced in an exhaust system. Installed a Vibrant 1142 Resonator 3" in/out. Which did wonders to kill drone and help the overall sound of exhaust. Now much better. I did end...

    Seized wheel bearing hub? Most useful tool ever.........

    Had that issue with my '04. Had driver hub fail during a turn(pucker factor of a 1000). Got it replaced and together in under an hour. Moved on to the passenger side and what a nightmare. Nearly bent a puller trying just to get axle out of hub. Then hub was stuck in knuckle. By that time I was...
