2003 Cummins CRI 5.9 turbo with stock injectors and Edge Evo2 tuner 18" General Grabbers AT2 4X4 8' bed megacab 15.9 mpg from CT to OK carrying 2000+ lbs, and I wasn't nice to the throttle either.
Hi Op,
I have the 17's and I keep them at 55 empty and 65 loaded. Truck rides good and runs good at those pressures, but like I said I have 17's and E rating. Bfg says don't run them under 50 psi regularly as it will wear hard on the tires, OK for short periods but not for running all the time.
I have BFG KO2 and they are good riding (8 ply) and grip well in the wet, and grip well off the road. Will replace with the same when time comes.
Overall they preform well and are holding up very well.
I have a 13 5.7 hemi, 6 speed with 3.55 gears, LSD, and 4X4 I have yet to find something this truck doesn't do well. carries 1500lb halfway across the country and never even hiccuped. Been in 18 inches of new snow and it did what it should. Would not trade my truck for much of anything.

Hi Op,
IF you want a truck then go to a couple of dealers look at some trucks you like then tell that you will give less than you really are willing to give and see who counters with a proposal that you can live with.
In any case good luck with your search.
Hi Op,
I put set of E rated BFG ko2's on my 13 and I have no bad things to say about them. They are a bit rougher than the Rugged Terrains I took off but they are way more tire also.
Enjoy them.
Hi yillbs,
Why not tell them that you know that submersing the electrics for that truck will cause damage to the connectors and the harnesses and you want them swapped out because you are insured so the truck will be as it was befoe the incident. Tlak to the dealer and ask them if the fuse box...
hI mdnusa,
Can't really tell ya on the cetane booster but you live in an area that gets pretty cold you would probably do well from something like powerstroke that prevents gelling and i believe boosts the cetane. I haven't had my 5.9 for the winter yet but I use powerstroke in my oil furnace...
Hi All,
Well I am new to diesels but I learn quick. Got a 2003 RAM 3500 LB QC with the SO Cummins. Steering gear is out and Redhead gear is going in. Original injectors will be getting swapped out his weekend. Next is it going to the dealer for steering gear pitman arm recall then on to the...
Hi Jay,
We are going to go ahead and do the steering linkage, tierod end update. I already have a Redhead steering box on order. My uncle told me that when the injectors are right on that truck it easily exceeds 18 mpg. That to me is awesome as that truck makes no qualms about going when you...
